Images embedded in stories

Hi everyone

I'm looking for an easy way to embed images in stories at the positions I want without resorting to IMG tags. I want the images under CMS control. At the moment, I'm using imagecache and using IMG to reference them. Not too special you'll agree.

Seeking web design for church

I am looking for anyone interested in contributing to design a website for my church. As well, if Drupal is the right platform to provide a site which supports the following:

My idea of an ideal website is one where anyone in a position of leadership is given a username and password that allows them to create discussion topics or meeting places where members of their group/task force could gather and chime in with their two cents. I suppose a blog for each task force, group or work area would suffice whereby comments from others could be posted and viewed by others.

The functions we want to include are

  • Calendar - with registration if the event requires such
  • Small Group management
    • Leader designation
    • Member designation
    • Group max size
    • Group current size
    • Meeting location with map direction linking capability
    • Group Description
    • Group meeting date and time/could be linked to the calendar
    • Group discussion page or blog for the leader to post topic points
    • Group type - task force/service/planning/music/social/bible study/Sunday school/
    • Group member average age or age range
  • Ministries - currently listed on www.wumc.com
  • Volunteer opportunities
  • Pastor's blog/Sermon posts with comments from visitors

Wordpress vs Drupal

Hi, not an experienced webmaster, so treat me gently...i just need one piece of advice.

I currently have a website on WordPress which is overwhelmed by spam, no matter what my technical people do with filters. They want me to move to Drupal which is apparently much better at blocking spam.

Can someone tell me if i am likely to see a marked difference or will i just be wasting my money?

Cheers,

Rob

inserting transactions into ecommerce manually to migrate from old system.

Im migrating a walled garden access point system for pre-pay internet access to drupal. I currently have a few hundred accounts who have purchased various amounts of credit for the service. I would rather not have to manually log in to each account, and send them a redemtion code, or some such thing, in order to provide them with their credits when we move to the new system, and I am trying to find some seamless translation strategy.

What i am doing now is this. I have roles set up, for prepayed service, and you can buy products in 5 dollar chunks. These, as I bet you know, come up in the ec_transaction and ec_transaction_product tables. Currently, I have a custom freeradius module that i have written that extracts the amount of credit that they have from the table, and uses that to calculate their remaining credit.

The bugger is that i need some way for an initial value to be assigned to each account. One way that I have been considering is to simply write a transition script that imports the user accounts, and then generates transactions for each of the accounts, that are not billed, but exist only on the transaction table. the point being to generate an entry on the table that my radius module finds and gives them credit for, without putting real transactions through the system, or resorting to the redemption code thing.

Looking for redesign services

My company is looking to hire a Drupal designer to help us revamp our internal “intranet” – Member Resources and possibly our public website (www.cafcp.org). I have attached an RFP for your review regarding the redesign of Member Resources. The California Fuel Cell Partnership is a collaboration of 33 organizations that believe fuel cell vehicles powered by hydrogen have the potential to change the future of transportation. Below are some basics of the Member Resources RFP.
