Converting to Drupal

I've a live website where I have created manually around 300 .html pages in notepad, 3 years back. Now I want to get it converted to drupal.

Since website is ranked well in search engines I'm worried about the SEO rankings after I get it converted to durpal.

The main problem is that my old .html page will be changed. So, I have to redirect the old urls to new urls permanently and notify search engines about the changes; this way I could still keep my pages ranked well in search engines.

In trying to convert the site www.vizcom.com.au I was wondering what is the best option to use.

If we look at this page in particular http://www.vizcom.com.au/page/company

The links at the top are setup like garland. That is in page.tpl.php i reference $primary_links so no issues there.

I have installed dhtml, and it seems to work ok for my admin navigation bar.. but not for my public menu. am I supposed to say which menus somewhere? I don't see anywhere to specify which menus?

but.. I can't seem to get the duplicated menu items working for certain links (or for any link).

what is the syntax supposed to be? is there some documentation somewhere where they explain how to set this up:?

thanks.

Hi,
I have Drupal 6.3 and I need manually add some node. I know that in drupal DB is some tables which are join throught (nid, vid,..).

Table "node_revisions" contain columns body,teasers etc. but I suppose that if I insert next rows with correct content in this table, it wont be enough for true output node. I know that in "node" are next information about node, so I'll be must add next rows here in correct form join with "node_revisions" (by nid) .. but here are next joint like vid, uid etc. -> so I dont want search all joint, because here is risk that I make mistake.

in my old website, I had the images stored in a folder called images. so, when I copy the source into the drupal pages, if there is an image "xxx.gif", the URL in the img HTML statement reads src="images/xxx.gif" or "/images/xxx.gif"

so.. where should I put the images folder within the drupal organization? Should I just put a folder images at the root? or does drupal normally call images from a special folder?

I don't mind changing the source code.. as I would like to follow drupal conventions.

Hello together,

actually i#m not sure if this is an migrating problem. i migrated phpnuke6 articles to drupal6. in the drupal db inserted the articles in node, node_revisions, and term_node.

when i click on an rss symbol, i get this error message:

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in /var/www/drupal6/modules/node/node.module on line 1688

is that a problem of migration, or what else could it be?
