Converting to Drupal

Hi,
I have a site designed and coded :www.proxietime.com/jumpfinder (haven't tested in a lot of browsers so may have errors) and I want to convert it into a drupal theme but I don't have much of an idea of what I'm doing. I've looked at these tutorials:

Hello,

I would like to move my website emotionrays.com to Drupal. It is currently work on my own engine, and store a plenty of information about games.

I am thinking of two possible options:
1. I make a custom node type for games and then write a script to move the existing data into the Drupal database
2. I make a module that generate nodes from the existing database

Which option is better and easier to implement?

I am very new to Drupal API and so I would appreciate any advices.

I am migrating a HTML/PHP Web to Drupal. I have a php program that need transfer to Drupal. So I have created a new directory in /modules and move the php code inside that directory.

The php code uses the user logging info to show the pages only to users logged. I have changed some lines in my code to work with the variable $user of Drupal.

In the Drupal menu, I have inserted a link to the php code, but the php code always indicates that there is no user logged. It seems that the var $user lost the values.

Hi All.

My website TeaXpress.com is being developed. My idea is to have an online teastore with a community where people can exchange ideas. Before I found Drupal, my plan was to integrate WordPress for blogging tea news and PHPbb for community forum. Would this be too much to maintain? It read that Drupal is very easy to maintain. (at the beginning, I didn't know Drupal has forum, but it obviously b/c I am using it:)) Now that I started ZenCart, but WordPress and PHPbb are not yet done. To all the experts out there, which would be the best choice

I would like to import my site to drupal. The content is no problem, I've already done it with node_import module, but I can't find any module for Comment migration!

Such module exists? Or I have to directly import into the DB?

Please, shed some light :)

Hi all
I am delighted to say that I am back using drupal and finally get it (sort of) thanks to the power that is cck and views. I am currently in the process of porting my old site to drupal as part of a learning exercise. Problem is I am stuck on a couple of things:

1. ony my current site we have a question much like 43things.com. which does 2 things:
a) checks to see if there is a duplicate and if not adds a new node with that entry as the title

Is there an easy way to do this?
