Need help migrating your site to Drupal?

production level security - authorise .net with ecommerce 6.x

Hi,
My company is trying to come up with cost savings solution plans for some of our clients - and shifting there MS .net solutions to LAMP, drupal, ecommerce is a GO GO with this ecnonomy. The latest prod. builds of drupal with ecommerce on our servers seem to be a sell for many of our clients - except we can't find Authorize.net payment processor with ecommerce 6.x. I know ecommerce 5.x had Authorize.net as payment processor - does 6.x have it?

thaniks,

Migrating from M$ Content Management Server 2002

Hi,

We're currently redeveloping a large website that is currently hosted in Microsoft Content Management Server 2002. The database schema for MCMS is pretty ugly from a content mapping point of view and it's very difficult to find any developer documentation of it or documentation on migration to anything other than a different Microsoft product (not such a surprise).

More philosophical advice on converting to Drupal...

I have a personal webpage area, low traffic, no commercial apps, and I recently decided that I hated coding a lot of stuff myself in HTML, ASP or PHP. I'm not a super user by any stretch, although I can usually get stuff to work through brute force, stupid luck, or determination. So I looked around, decided I needed a CMS, liked Drupal and somehow miraculously got it to install on my virtual hoster.

But as I'm playing with things, I want to get the "structure" right from the beginning. Under my old website I had a lot of subdomains, and a perfectly ordered series of directories:

1. www.mydomain.ca/ mapped normally
2. books.mydomain.ca mapped to www.mydomain.ca/books
3. movies.mydomain.ca mapped to www.mydomain.ca/movies
etc.

Each of the subdomains was really just a sub-page, no change in theme, etc. and I'm intending mainly the same, I think, for the new site. Do I even need subdomains? I toyed with rotating logos for the subpages, etc. But for my book reviews, I can see having several different "index" pages:

- sorted by author name
- sorted by rating
- sorted by date, etc.

Is the best way to do that through a "book" option where all my reviews are pages? Do I need to even worry about the books/movies/etc subfolders anymore or does everything get stored as node/#####?

Tools to compare site rebuild (site maps, size on drive..)

Hello, I am currently converting a static html site into Drupal 6. Everything is going well and we are hoping to switch over to drupal in another month or so. I want to be able to compare the infrestructure of the two sites to help my bosses visualize what's been done with our website.

Does anybody know of any good tools that can create a visual site-map, or provide data like:

Site 1: 1123 HTML files, 234 PHP files, 300 images
Site 2: 1000 html files, 100 php files, 100 images

Basically I need some metric to show how much and what kind of change has happened.

Announcements Page

Im making a website for a company and for one page they have some special request.

They want a page which is protected so only people with the right password can view it. I got the protected node module for this and it works good.
But on this page they want some sort of forum/announcements page. So they can post threads with announcements about the company so the people who work there can read that.

I've been searching a lot for a module which I could use for this, but with no luck at all.

Anybody who has an idea about a good module for this? =)
