Read moreQuick page update for a UC Berkeley unit?
Hello,
I am part of a small UC Berkeley organized research unit, and our IT person is currently out of town. We need a small update (adding an event to a list of events, formatting a short description of the event, adding an image and linking to 2 pages) for our website. Does anyone know a contractor who could do this sort of job? How much does this usually cost?
Also, are there resources on the UC campus? Any particular names you recommend?
Thank you,

Our non-profit horse association has a Drupal 5.0 website that has a couple of bugs. It needs to be upgraded to Drupal 8.0 or at least 7.0, but the bugs (and perhaps just standard upgrade complications) have prevented me from being able to do this. Does anyone we could hire to help still know Drupal 5.0, or should we just start over? The new person managing the website wants to use Wordpress, so unless I can find a cost-effective way to upgrade it, that is what they will do.
Thanks for any ideas!

TIME: 12:00-1:00pm
LOCATION: 2111 Bancroft Way (the "Banway" building)
In the course of working with Drupal, whether as a site builder, a developer, or even as someone just evaluating it, you may have questions about how things work - or why they don't. So you may turn to Drupal.org, and find that getting to the information you need on a site with (at last count) 2,687,205 pages can be difficult.
