Drupal Notes

Met with Aaron and Rebecca to discuss PhillyIMC Drupal site.

  • Aaron has a couple of projects outside of work he could use some help on.
    • PhillyIMC – media mobilizing project
    • independent blogs tied into the central site
    • Want to finish MMP by end of year – maybe two big steps
    • How would the site get built?
      • Most important: main site, domain module. Allows you to have single installation for multiple sites. Best way to start would be to get something running.
      • TODO: MRM – set up SVN for MMP project. Set up user accounts for AC, RS, MRM.
      • TODO: AC – get a very initial version set up and into SVN
      • TODO: MRM – set up wiki page for keeping track of issues, etc.
      • TODO: RS – set up SVN client on her machine, check out working code base
      • TODO: Get three major media (audio, images, video) fields working
      • TODO: MRM, RS – Set up MAMP, set up a test Drupal site, get code checked out and running there
      • TODO: MRM – take on image carousel functionality

Notes about CCK

  • Allows different content types (blog, about us, images, events).
  • Similar to an interface for creating node types.

Theme system:

  • Most modules create output using theme system.
  • It allows you to edit output without changing functionality.
  • Best theme to use as a base is 'Zen'

Internationalization/Translation

  • This might be a good thing for one person to tackle.
