Help

Instead of actually accomplishing things the past week I've been trying to debug... Drupal, my install, MySQL. I literally spend ALL day working (not for pay) on this.

Cron will not run. It fails indefinitely.
I finally got one install (I duplicated my site on another server, with the same error) to work by uninstalling getID module. So I go to the other install and do the same thing, nothing.

I did a search but if I missed a post, list, or such, a link is appreciated...

I gained Drupal experience on sites for my professional association (www.nena.org and www.al911.org) and I want to move our Church site to Drupal. I'm struggling to find a host in our price range as we are a very small church and money is tight. We use Slicehost for NENA but $20 a month is not in our price range. I may make hosting part of my financial support of the church and just go that route but I prefer something with Cpanel so it would be easier for someone else to take over if needed.

I'm having trouble with drupal finding the path to my files directoy at http://news.stpaulcatholic.org.

I feel like I'm regularly finding myself needing to persuade churches on the benefits of using open source software (yes, most often Drupal but also OpenOffice and other programs). I always feel like I could have done a better job.

It would be great to have a well written short paragraph with perhaps links to one or more longer papers.

Who has this already? Should we create this?

Hi,

I have a question related to the usage of Drupal to create content. I am basically running 10-15 blogs on various topics and I would like to use a single CMS system to manage them. So I chose Drupal. Now I want to know, whether it makes sense to create different content types for each blog-topic, or just publish everything as stories with appropriate taxonomies? My requirements are as below.

1) I want to have different themes for each blog-topic.
2) I want to have separate blocks for each topic, in the frontpage, which will display the latest 5 posts in that topic.

I hope I am not duplicating any posts. I have searched and searched, but have yet to uncover a solution.

I'm trying to help my church setup a website with both their video and podcasts. The issue I am having is they already publish their videocasts and podcasts to itunes. I have implemented emfield to at least manually post the videos, but is there a way that I could pull from the RSS feed of the feeds so this doesn't have to be manually done everytime a video is added?

www.osjournal.net is where I am currently testing this out. The RSS feed at the bottom appears to work sometimes, other times it doesn't.

Any help is appreciated!!

Hello,

My wife and I are marriage coordinators in our local church, and provide marriage education and marriage coaching to couples in our community.

After our site using Joomla was hacked and Drupal was recommended to us for security reasons. We are now evaluating Drupal, as well as stepping back and taking a hard look at what we want our web site to accomplish.

The functions we would like for our site are:
A place where couples that are hurting, or are looking to improve their marriage can come for help, and yet be a community where people continue to come back to.

Of common interest on many church sites is the ability to have a photo album. I've been playing around with views arguments, taxonomy and CCK Filefield to try to come up with something nice. I have something worked out.

Using the Related Links from the Links module (Drupal 5), I'm running into limitations. These are alredy established nodes, and I'm trying to fix the broken links. The new links are longer than the old ones, and Drupal won't let me make the links longer. Can anyone explain what's going on here, or how to work around it?
