Having images stored in CMS is a great benefit that web-to-print provides for it keeps images centralized. However, image originals are big and tend to add up quickly so hosting disk space may become an issue. We came up with following options

1) Only web version of image and the name of original file are stored in CMS. The original itself is stored offline in some predefined directory. While generating export XML to be used by InDesign, CMS uses the name of original image and inDesign gets it from its offline location.

Hi Everyone,

The magazine I’m working for magazine looking to reproduce a rich layout of the paper on there website.
Each article (mixe of different asset :interview, blog post, discution, pool, article) have different layout
1 teaser node on the home page "teaser.jpg"
2 teaser node on the channel page node "teaser bis.jpg"
3 full length

There is a nice write up at http://drupal.org/nyobserver about this solution that involved creating one cck content type for the home page and an other for the channels edition

I tried to check out the Drupal "Learning Resources" wiki page linked at the top of the Newspapers on Drupal group and was directed to a blank wiki page instead. Anyone know what's going on with this? I hope the page wasn't deleted. If so, does anyone have access to restore it?

Thanks.

Hello,

I'm hesitating to choose image module for my online newspaper. It's rather large one, which tens posts everyday (and I'm sure there'll be about 100 posts from members everyday soon). Each post contains 1-2 images. There should be a few galleries embedded in certain posts.

I have now two solutions to start with:

• img_filter (http://drupal.org/project/img_filter): use Upload to create attachment for node, simple and light. But I don't know if it's possible to embed one image into multiple posts (for instance, some logo).

We are going to launch a new travel website.

Let us know if you see any bugs.

It's the first stage of the project and we are looking to increase interaction with the readers. Do you have any User Generated Content suggestions?
We were thinking of uploading photos, posting stories and blogs, sharing tips and advice...
Please feel free to share your views below.

Thanks

I'm halfway threw setting up a newspaper site and I think I have everything figured out except the best way to approach the menu. Given its a weekly newspaper updating the menu by hand would be rough given the 50+ sections of the paper that would need to change. My first idea was to use views to limit the node with a single "checkbox" value then just show that View. But thats really going to screw with Google and I would rather use the Scheduler module anyway. Is there a way to setup my menus to auto update to the newest published article?

Hello All

I am working with an online youth media publication that is looking to upgrade their website/e-publication and I am looking to upgrade/switch them to Drupal. I need advice on the article adding, node add/edit screen and functionality.

Can anybody suggest what the best site search technique might be best for a 30,000+ article site?

We tried using the Drupal search module (indexing words, posts and users in our site's content) about 12 months or so ago. But we had problems, principally due to CCK fields from what I can remember, and so we jettisoned it in favour of Google Custom search.

Google is okay, but we'd like something more customised than they allow.

We currently run 4.7, but are looking to upgrade soon.

Any advice gratefully received.

There's a lot of great information on this website, and Drupal seems like a really great system to do what we want to do; but I've got a vanilla installation of Drupal up and I'm having a hard time figuring out where to go from here.

I see what people have done and I guess I have an idea of what I'd like to do, but......where to go from here, I'm a bit lost!

Any help would be greaaaatttlyy appreciated.
