Learning resources
Hello,
I am working on implementing a newspaper in Drupal.
My first concern is how to import all the articles with pictures into Drupal and make it
visible to the visitors if they decide to make a search in our archives. I am not sure how it has
to be set up alltogether to make it work. The file that i have right now it is a cvs.
Any help would be great.
Thanks for this amazing project.

Hello All,
While I believe I have found the solution to my payment problem I posted about a few days ago, my next issue is this.
Allowing visitors to see partial content on a news site that is subscription based is usually a good thing. Visitors can preview the quality of the content, and perhaps there's that story they just have to know the ending to. But, you don't want those visitors full access to the content, now do you?
In essence, I am looking for a solution that will show visitors a "teaser" and subscribers the full article.

Hello All,
I have currently presented myself with the project of creating a online "newspaper" website. I have seen some of the examples (such as the NYC Observer), and am quite encouraged. While I don't expect to reach that size, or that level of development, it's nice to know that I have a platform that will grow with me. I would enjoy any advice you all may be able to provide, as ask for some suggestions on the biggest hurdle I've seen.
Masthead as a Module or as a Node
I'm looking for opinions on Masthead content.
Mastheads typically have the following:
Should I use workspace or create a custom view for writers?
I've been working my way through creating an article submission process through workflow, which I love and just wonder where it was 5 years ago. But now I'm working on creating a writer-facing edge on it. I've been working off of "Using Drupal," which suggests using workspace but creating a custom view doesn't like it would be that hard and would let me fine-tune the user experience.
Our writers are a mix of volunteer and paid, and are all over the board in terms of usability, so I'd like to make sure that the website speaks their language, so to speak.
Read moreSubscriptions to Print form?
Hello everyone,
I am currently developing a website for a local newspaper, and we are looking for some simple way for users to subscribe to our PRINT version of the newspaper. I want to include the following fields for the users to fill out:
- their name
- address
- some feasible way to pay (credit card number, most probably)
Is there any SIMPLE way to do this, preferably with some module?
Thanks

Pirating of stories: Any way to stop this?
Is there any way to either prevent, or limit, the copying/pirating of stories from a Drupal site?
We've been finding our copyrighted stories plastered all over the Net, many of which are the entire article with not even a courtesy back-link.
Read moreOrganizing and Scheduling Content
I maintain a Drupal newspaper website and we're looking to improve the process for soliciting and publishing articles. The goals are to consolidate the process and make things more efficient for editors and authors to collaborate, as well as to provide some organizational tools to map out when articles will be published over the coming weeks or month.
Read moreVideo ad serving
Does anybody have any suggestions on how to handle video ad serving (i.e. adding things like pre-, mid- and postrolls ads into your videos)?
And, specifically, has anybody integrated the Kaltura Video Module for Drupal (http://corp.kaltura.com/) to handle this kind of thing?
Alternatley has anybody decided that using a third-party like Brightcove (http://www.brightcove.com) or Videoplaza (http://www.videoplaza.com) the best way to go for video ad serving?
Thx,
Geoff
