Converting to Drupal

I have a comp sci degree and I have now read most of four Drupal books, and I have watched dozens of videos, and I just don't get it. I have installed v6 and v7 on my MAMP stack. Then I switched to Drupal Gardens ('cause I guess that's supposed to be the easiest) but no cigar. I'm trying to replicate a simple static website, and I can't get the content to show up. There are about 10 pages, and they're supposed to show main content and ancillary content in area C, but only the main content shows up.

I just don't get why this has to be so mysterious

Hi Folks,

Recently I have successfully converted my DB from MySQL to PostgreSQL on a Debian Lenny. However the pages are visitable but everything appears without themes. I'm using a customised Garland theme for this website but nothing appears from it. I get default HTML colours with the sidebars and content area under each other.

I receive no error messages in the browser (except cron script is not scheduled yet). I've verified the file permissions, they are fine (dirs 755, files 644), the user and group are set to www-data.

Hi,

I am new to drupal development.

I have been given a UI template from my creative team which are plain html files and now I have to integrate this new UI to my company's drupal deployment.

The problem is that this new UI does not at all matches with drupal components.

1. Can anybody please help me to understand how to customize such type of UI using drupal. I dont have any knowledge about drupal theme development, but I think this may be required. What do you experts say?

I have a url on my site www.example.com/ebook/ that has a lot of incoming links. I've switched to drupal and want to 301 redirect that link to just www.example.com. I've modified my .htaccess file but it's still not redirecting. I've changed this part of the .htaccess file from this:

# RewriteBase /drupal
#
# If your site is running in a VirtualDocumentRoot at http://example.com/,

to this:

I have a forum http://forums.techhotfix.com , recenly i have installed drupal on my main domain i.e. on http://www.techhotfox.com i want like when a user registers either on the forum or on the http://www.techhotfox.com he should be able to login from the other domain. Please tell me the way to achieve this
