Drupal vs SquareSpace - What Drupal Longs to be?

Posted Fri, 05/22/2009 - 00:44 by Dellinger

So Leo Laporte (http://leoville.com/) has become a fanboy of sorts of Squarepace (http://www.squarespace.com/), they are one of his big sponsors now and many of his colleagues have jumped ship from platforms such as wordpress over to Squarespace.

So what is Squarespace? Basically it is a web-based content management website authoring platform that includes hosting; in short it's an easy way to make pretty and functional websites.

Drupal Icon for Rocketdock.

Posted Tue, 04/28/2009 - 05:18 by Dellinger

Hi All,

If anyone uses Rocketdock (http://rocketdock.com) I made a Drupal icon for your dock. http://rocketdock.com/addon/icons/18182

If you don't know what Rocketdock is it is this really great program that can put a "Mac-like" dock/sidebar on your windows machine.

Love it.

Is Drupal THAT hard? - The "Drupal Learning Curve" is a Myth!

Posted Sat, 01/24/2009 - 15:15 by Dellinger

So Drupal is notorious for its "learning curve" and the mind-bending endeavor that is 'learning Drupal.'

But is it really THAT hard?

Firstly, this question is difficult to evaluate because so many different kinds of people come to Drupal from so many different levels and types of experience.

You have hardcore experienced PHP developers adopting Drupal for the first time, novices that are deciding to move from Wordpress, complete noobs who heard the word Drupal and became psychotically obsessed with it.

Future Proofing Your Drupal Website - Geeks and God Podcast.

Posted Tue, 01/13/2009 - 06:24 by Dellinger

Okay, you'll probably get tired of me pushing Geeks and God but seriously they have some of the best Drupal-related podcasts and really it doesn't require a bible and isn't trying to convert you.

Going back over some of their older podcasts I ran across this one from August 18, 2008.

It provides a good overview of where Drupal core development is headed, particularly related to selecting modules for your Drupal site.

This is a must listen!

Great Drupal Podcast - Geeks and God

Posted Sat, 01/10/2009 - 01:44 by Dellinger

These guys do Drupal web development for churches and do a really informative and interesting podcast about every other week.

This podcast is a case study specifically about how they rebuilt (or at the time, were rebuilding) their own website in Drupal 6.x.

I really enjoy listening to these guys. Unlike a lot of podcasts I TRY to listen to which seem to be a rambley back-slapping yammering get together of friends with the podcast as an afterthought, these guys actually prepare which makes for an entertaining and efficient podcast and use of time.

Theme Problem in IE 6, 7, and 8 but not in Firefox,Safari or Chrome

Posted Tue, 11/18/2008 - 00:19 by Dellinger

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help me with my website http://shoemadam.com.

It displays fine in Firefox, Safari and Chrome but totally implodes on Internet Explorer?

I got the theme from Roople Theme (http://roopletheme.com) and have used it on other sites without a problem.

Any 'Themer' experts have any quick fixes?
