Newspapers on Drupal

Hi all,

My communications team would like a news type of site with main stories, images, and have it updated regularly. I've had good success with implementing a lot suggestions that i've found on the group but i'm having trouble over one issue. I'm hoping to use panels and then have views as blocks but can I theme these view blocks? I would full control over styling and theming the panel and all the view blocks but i don't know the best way to do this. I haven't found any good documentation on this.

I tried posting this question in the forums w/o response ... http://drupal.org/node/533906
I'm not sure how best to phrase want I want, making it hard to search for, so here goes;
Is this leaching?

Geoff Maxey has released a beta of CASAA, the Context Ad Serving and Analytics framework. This is a unified tool for supporting any and all ad servers and analytics systems through plug-ins. A series of plug-ins not yet released (but coming soon) covers Google Analytics, Omniture, Yahoo Content Match, Yahoo APT, and Open AdStream. CASAA was developed for the Morris newspaper websites and is being released under our commitment to contribute back to the open-source community.

I've just updated the list of modules that might be useful for newspapers. This page is intended to host any discussions concerning the wiki list.

(I know the list overhaul was kind of drastic, but since I compiled most of the original list I figured no-one would be more upset than me. The old list can still be found on this page.)

Cheers!

Dear all!

I am using d6.13 and building a site for a monthly magazine which has 10 categories of news. I am adding the respective articles under each categories ex.

www.mysite.com/news
www.mysite.com/beautytips
www.mysite.com/politics
www.mysite.com/technology
www.mysite.com/marketwatch
etc

which will be the regular links.

What I am looking for is to know how to bind all these articles together? Something like a book module... When its archived, all these should happen simultaneously.

Regards
Jo

Can any one help me what module are required for web like www.tnol.co.id

I think it would be good to give an extra visibility to the proposed sessions in media related field for the next DrupalCon in Paris.

It's time to register http://paris2009.drupalcon.org/user

Once registered :

You can register your vote

Now you still have some time to be able to vote on them, so we can see which sessions are on the top of your lists and plan the schedule accordingly.
Get busy using your right to vote again, as this is your event!
Deadline will be Sunday, 12th July
Here is how you do it (if you don't know already):
Step 1
Go to the sessions list.
Step 2
Browse through it by filtering etc. Once you have found a topic that you want to vote for, click on the button in the upper right corner:
Step 3
Once it is green, it shows that you have voted and you can see all the sessions in My Attending Sessions in your profile.

Click again to cancel your vote.

Or you can make a session proposal to share your latest media related achievements http://paris2009.drupalcon.org/node/add/session :

I hope you won't mind me picking your brain here, but I was looking at your site, and I love the way you guys have that slideshow of images and captions in the story.

I was wondering which modules you were using for that effect if you don't mind me asking. I'm struggling to get the same type of effect on our new site, and it hasn't been going well for me so far.

I've been using imagefield and cck, with Lightbox, but I can't seem to get captions to show, nor can I create that sort of slideshow effect with it.

Any tips you could throw my way would be very very helpful.

Thanks sir.

Hello,
I'm brand spanking new to Drupal and to this forum. I poked around a bit and didn't see anything posted on this topic yet.

I've just taken on a freelance project to create a newspaper (or newspaper-like) website for a client. So far what I know is that he wants to have different departments (I'm assuming things like "current events", "sports", "entertainment", etc.) and he also wants several different people to contribute content. He wants to be able to post different types of content: text, slideshows, videos, etc. Knowing this, Drupal sounds like a good solution.
