My Drupal dating site
Im brand new to the dating group here. So hello!
Ive decide to develop a dating site with drupal.
http://www.woosingles.com
Amazingly enough, it was easier than I had imagined. I used the theme alek_2.0 with little to no changes (though some are in thought). I certainly hope this is the correct area to post this info!
-What I would like to see is reviews, and maybe some members/testers just to check it out and maybe get tips on how to... or recommend tips on how to I could improve.
Heres some of the modules that I used (there are more, but these are the most beneficial):::

Volunteer Venture | Warply Designed
Hello,
I have a website http://www.wcfree.com that has been created using Drupal 5. The site was created to basically test the market over the last two years. Now that I know there is demand for this type of social network/dating site I would like to take this site to the next level. Currently the site is on the first page on google, yahoo, and msn's search engines. In the last 5 months without spending a penny on marketing or advertising there has been over 18,878 visitors. (Based on adsense stats).
Creating simple search features on dating site
Hello. I am very interested in starting a very simple niche dating site similar to plentyoffish. Drupal seems amazing, and ive already read through the other discussions listing good modules for a dating site for profiles and some other things. However, I was wondering if there is a module that could be used to easily create a "dating site search" such as "I am a male__seeiking a ___female within _10miles__of __zip code".
matchmaking module
My planning for the upcomming year is to develop a matchmaking modul for drupal. I intend to have a community website, build on the existing modules from drupal.
I already tried some ready made modules, open- or closed source. There are some nice and proper solutions, but the opensource solutions seem a bit scary to me. The code was not really clear and problems may come up easily. The paid solutions appear fine too me, but very restrictive. Multilanguage will be supported like english, spanisch, french, german.
My Developing Online Dating Website
The demo website is at http://dating.burnintrendz.com/ I encourage you all to sign up and help me test and develop features.
I'm still in the early stages, but here's what modules I'm using. I'll update the list as I add them:
- CCK - This is kind of obvious. You have to be able to use so many features that Content Construction Kit has. Start here.
- Advanced Profile Kit - Very useful module. It requires some work to set up, but once done, it will display a user's profile page so beautifully. You also have to include the following modules to set up AdvProfile properly:
- Panels 2
Building a Dating Website
I have moved the original message here to the wiki, per Christefano's request. So here I'll just mention the weblink:

and encourage you all to help me build and test a Drupal dating website.
Building interest in using Drupal for online personals
I'm intrigued by the existence of this group and have been a member for a while. I don't know what the statistics are these days but a few years ago online dating sites were by far the most lucrative kind of social networks. Using Drupal for this makes all kind of sense so I'm surprised that this group has been so quiet.
Site recipes for online dating sites
From a development point of view, I'm interested in hearing what type of repurposing can be done with existing modules. Please add to this wiki page to help gather ideas for using modules and site recipes in clever ways.
Private messaging
E-commerce, custom content types and Actions can be combined to allow members to contact each other. Think of it as a coin-operated privatemsg.
HotOrNot Clone near ready
