Visual Guide to Installing Drupal

By silverwing on

I've made a few pages documenting with screenshots how to install drupal. Quite a few people, I'm sure, can't get their minds over the no-install script hurdle, when in fact, it's not so much a hurdle as a small jump over a puddle.

So I've come up with my Visual Guide to Installing Drupal. Its audience is people (like me) who don't have a programming background, dont' have shell access, think that "php" is a degree they give doctors after they graduate med school, etc. You know, those "shopping" for a CMS.

Improved download pages on Drupal.org

By Steven on

It was no secret that Drupal.org's download pages were sub-optimal: we had two views, one by version and one by download type. This was a left-over from project.module's old browsing structure. And while the Drupal.org front page feature did provide easy access to the list of themes, modules and translations, that page was not particularly helpful in helping you discover interesting downloads that you didn't yet know by name.

That's why I dived into project.module and came out again with a revamped project browser. The new download page is structured both by download type and version and gives you more informative project descriptions. Furthermore, with a dash of CSS (and a couple dozen screenshots later) I added thumbnails to the Themes list. Finding a theme you like has never been easier. Each theme also has a direct link to the Drupal Theme Garden: now you can get a live demo of any theme by clicking its picture.

By Lupin3rd on

Drupal.it staff realeased Migration script 0.1 to make easy to migrate from Nukes cms to Drupal.

WimaxCoop.com and Wimax.Coop

By jsbthree on

WWW.WimaxCoop.com is a cooperative formed to offer wireless broadband and provide a mechanism for others to provide for themselves and circumvent the recent spate of telecommunications company lawsuits aimed at small towns trying to offer their community broadband to revitalize downtown business districts. We are also developing an international "meta coop" using www.Wimax.Coop which was granted a .coop TDL to further these efforts and as a means to knit together the various coops for political and economic benefit.
