Converting to Drupal

I currently have a mediawiki site and I want to import the articles into Drupal. I found the flexifilter module, and have tried the built in mediawiki filter, but it needs some tweaking. It turns all my internal links into links to Wikipedia's site. Has anyone created a flexifilter that does a better import. Also, it doesn't do well with latex math. I appreciate any suggestions you might have.

Thank you.

Noob with Drupal but not CMS in general - have reviewed v5 vs v6 and plumped for the latter because it seems like getting the desired look and feel for the 2-3 of sites I need to build will be easier and it will be a more suitable way of learning the product. Now of course I observe that a great many modules are not 6.x ready including CCK etc. I am happy to hack some bits of PHP etc to get what I need but don't wnat to spend days writing modules which are going to emerge anyway from more stable histories. Plus more seems to be happening than with other CMS products I could mention.

In the light of this is there an easy way of doing the following:

One of my site owners wants to be able to list things (these could be poems, books etc) and she wants to be able to have a page (or pages) on her site which effectively list the titles and/or teasers of these items much as the "promote to front page" stuff does. These subpages would ideally not be included in the main Navigation menu structures as they may contain a few dozen items.

So the menu structure should be something like:

Home
My Poems
About
Contact

hello,

I am thinking of taking one database with several linked tables, and defined relationships, and convert it to drupal. Is it possible? My first thought is that the CCK module would be the right choice, but I am not sure if Drupal would be the best tool to begin with -

Anyone here who has done anything like this?

I'd appreciate your insight.

I'm in the process of moving an existing website to a new home, and at the same time converting it to Drupal (I'm using 5.6 now, but I expect to upgrade to 6.x in the near future). It's also my first actual use of Drupal for anything, so I have yet to find out how it works in reality.

The old website consists of about 100 files, nearly half of them HTML, but there are also images, PDF and RTF files, and a few other formats, neatly placed in a hierarchical directory structure reflecting their relationship to each other. As I move the site, the HTML files disappear into the node database, while the inline images and attachments end up in the files directory with its flat namespace, and the old hierarchy is gone. I have set the upload method to Public.

Does anyone know how I can move my blogger page to Drupal? I've been trying for days and I'm about ready to kill myself. I'm hoping to preserve my comments and stats. Help me please.

Hi
i'm quite new to Drupal. my husband saw this and like the features. I have my own website now and would like to change it to Drupal. But before i do that, i have some few questions.

In my website now, i have videos posted. can i also do that with Drupal?

I downloaded Drupal last week and played around, especially uploading pictures, is there a way that I can post a certain pics in front of the page without clicking on the attachment. I tried it and it seems that every time i upload pics, it always end up as a link. saying "attachment file. jpg" or so...
