I have migrated my old D7 site into a new D7 site as I wanted to refactor many things. As part of this refactoring I have migrated all previously existing content preserving the same url aliases, unfortunately I was using disqus instead of drupal comments and after the migration they have been messed up, as they do not correspond to the node they should be refering.
I considered using the url mapper, as I thought the node/id path was used instead of the alias, but I realized that paths are using aliases, which haven't changed at all.
I am planning to convert my existing website into Durpal.
This website was built in PHP/MySql but it have many missing advance level features.
I am not able to eaisly manage it. And someone suggested me to switch to Durpal for
easy management. Please suggest me how to handle following challenges:
1. Can i move existing data to Durpal or any method to move existing data?
2. Can i retain its existing theme to Durpal?
3. Can i able to use existing Hosting provider?
4. What is the fastest way to accomplish this task?
So heres the story... Our company just acquired another company and their web site was built in Drupal. After tons of research (i'm not a web developer/programmer) I have gotten the site to the point where it displays the site but in some sections of the site I get the following errors (below). This is hosted on-premise with Windows 2012, IIS, PHP, Drupal 7, etc. Any help would be great! Thanks!

I've had a Wordpress site for a few years and have had my eye on Drupal for just as long. Now that Drupal 8.0.0 is released I've created a Drupal 8 site in preparation to replace the Wordpress site. The only thing left is to figure out how to get the blog posts and their comments from Wordpress over to Drupal. In reality, I don't have many posts or comments, and have no issue manually copy and pasting them over to Drupal. I can do that with the posts, but I can't find a way to manually recreate comments and backdate them from the UI on Drupal.
But the old site uses PHP's "curl" function to screen-scrape a small amount of text on "fire danger" from a CT state website (visible on the home page, upper left).
Trying to execute that in a block in Drupal gives me a security message flashing by, and then disallows the code. I have enabled the PHP Code function.
I am in the process of trying to migrate my site to drupal 7, which I have never used before. However, I have been very impressed with it which has prompted me to attempt to move the thousands of pages we have onto a new Drupal platform.
I'm using migrate, and I've spent a lot of time learning to write the relevant classes etc. I have simple migrations working fine.
However, I have a lot of pages that cross-references each other: we're a news and podcast site, so we have a lot of authors who write articles and news stories and present programmes.
