Best Practice for Custom Display/View of Content Types with Drupal 7.x ?

Just installed Drupal, added a handful of content types, and added a lot of 'new fields' to each (text, text areas, images, etc.). Next I need to completely redesign the display/view of each of these 'content types'. I do see there are a few modules to do this, but what is the best method? How do I do this within Drupal naively?

I can do whatever needs to be done in HTML, CSS, and jQuery... I just want the 'best practice' for Drupal.

Thanks!

Drupal 8.x vs Joomla! 3.0

Hi,

Is there an article from an objective expert, which compares and contrasts the features of Drupal 8.x and Joomla! 3.0?

Best regards.

Understanding Drupal structure

I am about to start developing a Drupal site. It's been built statically, so all HTML&CSS is pre-existing.

I've got it set up locally and I have a basic structure set up (header, footer, basic CSS) but now I'm struggling with understand the structure of the site. Having just got my head round Wordpress, I'm finding Drupal very unintuitive.

First off, I've identified a need for 11 widgets. E.g "portfolio tall" and "portfolio wide" to display portfolio images (one for a vertical lister and one for horizontal) etc

I've then got 6 different templates or layouts identified. Homepage, two col, one col, inner page with lots of widget areas, portfolio entry page and an inner page with only a few widget areas (I've drawn out every page and worked out each type that needs to be available to get these numbers.)

From my understanding (Drupal documentation seems to go way over my head) you don't have it the same way as Wordpress, where your two col layout can have different widgets in it. Can anyone tell me if this is right?

For example, I need a two col layout with a portfolio widget down the side. I then need a two col layout with an advert down the side. Does this have to be two different pages? Or can I just make one "two col" template and add widgets to it depending on what page it is? Argh, so confusing!

Going from an HTML site to Drupal?

Hello, I have been searching this all over with many CMS's. I have a static HTML site and need to allow my users to update news/blogs/photo galleries. I also need the articles and such to feed to the main page.

First off, is there a way to use my current design (html/css/js)?

Where do I start?

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

migration for a Greek website from a developer of other country ( problems may arise? )

We have a Greek website and want to migrate to drupal. The company who will make the project is from abroad (England) not from Greece cause we couldn’t find one .

The developers of the company told us that they do not speak Greek and the menu should be translate by ourselves into Greek.

No problem about that.

Developers from Greece told us that if the initial installation of droupal language is different from that used in the final product, then there may be problems with the translation and the proper appearance in Greek.

What is your opinion?
