newbie

Hello from Greensboro!

I am having trouble understanding COD & where to start!

I sort of played around with the package - but, I sort of lost where to start.

I have been using Drupal 7 for 2yrs now, so I have an idea about Drupal in general, but I now have to go back to version 6, which is ok, but does require a little time to think where the changes are.

I sort of getting confused with Events, sessions, and schedules....

thanks
Carlo

hello there

i'm interested to build a website for the blind pilots using microsoft fs simulator.

and i've heard that drupal is verry accessible, and i might want to try it.

i need help about where to start, which drupal i get (i cannot find drupal 8 nowhere) and modules or themes that can help me.

i have my hosting account ready.

so any helps would be appreciated!
thanks

Please forgive this but my brain hurts.

I am an intermediate level IT person. I have coding experience, but my main focus has been on UI and Accessibility issues since I stop full-time coding with VB 6 & ASP technologies. I am no stranger to user groups and discussion boards, but I will confess to a lack of patience with them. Which brings me to my suggestion/rant:

Sorry to those of you who may have been spammed with copies of a recent comment I made to this group. I made some tweaks to the syntax after posting without realizing that the Groups notification/subscription system tracks these.

If you have never seen Bob and his podcasts from Mustardseed, now is your chance to and to bookmark his lessons. Granted some 'casts do not go deep down the rabbit holes but he does give great tutes to get one started.

I had been struggling to understand all the switches and what the cause and effect is with aspects of some Drupal modules. The two referenced podcasts help sort some of this out. Hope they help you as well.

Hi all, I just created my first drupal site, and now I need to create the user registration form. I guess I have to do that from scratch eh? Seems like there would be a template or widget, as all the user regs that I have entered my own stuff into for this type of site are primarily the same:)

But I think I have to learn CKK and Views anyway, so my first question is where to do that? I live in Nepal and video is painful here, so a text tut would be best. My second question is this:

Hey Everyone,

I'm a relative newbie to the use of panels so I was wondering if there is any sort of step by step documentation as to how to create one panel per content type.

I feel like I've looked everywhere and tried everything, and obviously there is something that I am missing (maybe a module or permissions or something).

Thanks in advance.

I have just "successfully" installed Acquia Slate, 3.x (3.0 Beta 1). I am trying to get the background image to show on the front page (like on http://acquiaslate.fusiondrupalthemes.com/), but the instructions/documentation seem to have been written for a different version of the theme.

Specifically: there is no "Frontpage preface sidebar" or "Front preface sidebar" region in my blocks, to add something to (I only want this on my frontpage). Also, the "Show Mission Statement" under global theme settings does not seem to do the trick.

Thanks in advance,
Dave
