i try to go to a web site and i receive an error message: unable to connect to database server
and a suggestion to install drupal.
do i have to install something just to "see" the web site??
This is difficult to explain. I have taken over the administration of this website from someone else and have no idea about Drupal.
I want to make a change to a link in my menu - basically, a primary link. It's named "Investment Opprortunities" and of course, I wish to change the spelling.
So..., I click on Primary Links where I see the menu items/links. All these links are NOT enabled and yet, they match (name for name) every menu item on the actual website's menu. Furthermore, Investment Opportunities is spelt correctly.
I would like to pay someone to upgrade my drupal installation from 4.5 to the latest. I've tried to do it on my own but the updater doesn't seem to work completely the way it should and I realize that its a pretty big task to upgrade such an old install. I'm not really using any big complicated modules or anything custom. I would like some quotes to perform this task. This would need to be done on a test site first so that the site editors can test it out and make sure the functions we use still work and then the upgrade would need to be done at night or on a weekend.
Hi Guys,
this note is about how its important, to make a screencast of how to use your module.
first I want to apologize to drupal because in the past i thought it was crap. Now I know better. DRUPAL RULES PERIOD.
I think sometime people do not put drupal where it blong-on the top because I not easy for them to understand. Yesterday i found this site http://www.drupaltherapy.com/screencasts
And boy it change a lot of thing for me. I now know that imagecahe serve something..lol
what I am recommending to drupaler is to do more video screencast on how to use specific modules. screecast are simple to do you pretty much just use the module and we get to see the video.
videos are easier to understand than writing. Most people in the world are more visual oriented.
here are some link of free screencast software: http://camstudio.org/ http://www.jingproject.com/
why do more videos than just writing?
*easier to remember because human mostly remember what they see
*not everybody understand the language example : argument, filter node etc...
*not everybody speaks english or french etc...having a screencast videos make it easier to understand the process
*we can share the video on youtube and other place thus increase the exposure of drupal
*it easy, you pretty much just use the module and we can see it
