The Rake Magazine

The Rake Magazine's home pageGorton Studios is proud to announce the relaunch of The Rake Magazine as a Drupal site. The Rake is an arts and culture magazine based in Minneapolis/St. Paul. The magazine is known for its strong storytelling focus as well as its unapologetic brand of humor, style, and personality.

The main goals of this new site were to expose The Rake’s rich resources (about 7,000 nodes) and help visitors find interesting content quickly. It features a wealth of carefully highlighted and cross-connected articles, integration with the organization’s pre-existing Event and Restaurant database (still managed outside of Drupal) and a bevy of blogs.

Simplifying administrative overhead was a key mandate from the outset. The old system was an unwieldy mix of Movable Type blogs and custom CMS content. Updating and featuring content had become an overwhelming process that was preventing The Rake‘s online edition from growing into something more fluid and community-oriented. The new site has enabled much more frequent updating, thanks to easily edited content and a robust permissions system.

Read on for some of the modules and techniques involved in building this site.

How did they do it? (OgilvyOne)

Does anyone know how the pager/grid on http://ourwork.gr was implemented? It doesn't look like views, is it pure theming?

Two sites for the showcase

I've recently launched two web sites built in Drupal and thought I'd share.

The roll out went fairly well. The only complaint I have is that I'm finding an issue with file attachments not working. They were working on week, then the next, they're not.

Other than that, I'm pretty happy using Drupal and how these turned out.

My new multisite

I have been checking CMS-es to run blog. I've found drupal very easy to run as a multisite.
Here are my new sites:

http://aroundtheworld.xt.pl/ - 45 articles on my journeys and tropical medicine (all in polish)

http://cmsblog.xt.pl/ - 20 articles on cms-es and on Apache-php-mysql on dedicated webserwer optimization
