Need help migrating your site to Drupal?

News categories listings ?

Looking around for a cms system to be used for a news site; primary priotity when it comes to the layout is that I'm able to list the headlines from each of the categories available. So I'm not interested of getting column that shows the latest posted articles in mixed order. Guess that a small lookse at http://www.os2world.com gives a easier view of what I mean.

As well, there is as well around 20.000 articles that needs to be imported; assume that this wouldn't be any problem, or?

Is Drupal for me?

Music website (baconmusic.co.uk) Drupal conversion, cant figure anything out?

Hi, I have had a music news/review etc based website for a while. I decided to move the site from its traditional ASP/Access system (self written) a while ago as I no longer have time to maintain the development of the site.

Initially the first PHP/MySQL system I thought about using was Mambo/Joomla as I have used this in the past when developing a theme for a client. However the whole thing seemed a bit too messy to use for my own site.

Then I found WordPress. I use this for my blog and knew with a few hacks it could be beefed up to make the perfect site CMS for my needs. But theres that problem that its "only" a blog tool.

Drupal seemed like a good idea, I have done the reading, tutorials, FAQs you name it. It all "sounds" great. The sites I see such as www.popmadrid.com are exactly the kind of system I need to convert my site.

But I just cant work it out, its been 2 weeks now and I feel ashamed that as a Web Developer I just dont "get" how this thing works!

My site has sadly died so (www.baconmusic.co.uk) is purely a holding page for now, you can see the google cashe here:
http://66.249.93.104/search?q=cache:40Bt3v459OsJ:www.baconmusic.co.uk/+b...

Sadly its not CSS styled so its a little flat.

You can see my idea. I have a few "sections", the standard ones: news, reviews, features etc. I also want to add a new "blog" feature so the writers can post some editorials on the new version, also allowing visitors to comment.

Converting pure static site to Drupal, please advise on strategy

I am moving to Drupal. My site has previously been pure HTML and PHP, parts being dynamic but it's been mostly static and I've maintained it using Dreamweaver.

Now I'd like to migrate to Drupal. I've been working on this from time to time since Oct last year. I've got my new design ready and I know what the structure and organization of the new site will be like. I am converting with XHTML+CSS design to PHPTemplate right now, technically it's no so hard as I'm an experienced PHP programmer.

What'd I'd appreciate advise on, and help with, is how to go about structuring the theme. Almost every page on the site will have its own layout except a few generic layouts used for listing articles and such.

I'd appreciate the help of someone who's done this before. I understand that my site is not the easiest and maybe quite a huge undertaking for someone who is relatively unexperienced with Drupal but I enjoy challenges so I don't mind really.

I am prepared to pay someone, if that's what it takes, or offer linking to their site. This is a high PR site with good traffic, links from this site are valuable. I'd really like to get started but right now it feels like I'm not getting anywhere. Any help is highly appreciated.

My site consists of:

(all pages have static navigation at the top at the moment)

Front
- 2 columns, 50/50 width
- left: latest entries from my blog and news (these will type Story), clicking "read more" will lead to the News or My Blog page

Link database

hello,

I've a product database with 2 tables... One is for resellers and the other is for products.
All products have an unique ID and all products are linked to one resellers...

I would like to create node or flexinode or something else which could display the content of my product (and reseller) tables.
So, is it possible to link the "node" ID with the product ID and when a user call the page with the node XX, it will be displayed the webpage with product XX informations (price, picture, description...etc)

Do you know how to do this ?

Thanks

Newbie question, primary/secondary links...

Hi,

I'm trying to see whether to use Drupal. I'm trying to understand this primary/secondary links stuff...I understand I can put links

Kind Regards,
Alfred.
