Considering Drupal

Aug 02, 2009 16:25

I'm considering Drupal for my Themed List site.  I originally wanted to go with WordPress, and might still do it, but I wanted to see if there were better options. I tested Joomla, but it did not allow me the use of subcategories, and frankly it seemed a bit cumbersome for what I really need. So now it's Drupal's chance.

I'm probably going to create a test site and play araound with it for a bit. If it works then I'll place it in Fanfic-Zone's domain.

Unfortunately I left this site unatended for a long time, and it crashed. I'm still trying to see if there is any chance of rescuing some of the information there, although the database seems massive and I fear the site was heavily spammed until it finally crashed. Anyway The themed list should be ok on this domain.

If Drupal does not work for what I need then I guess I'll still go with WordPress. I already have a tentative site working, although since I updated to vers. 2.8.2 I'm having a bit of a problem with installing the Pods pluging. I could re install the whole thing, and probably will anyway.

The site is Harry Potter Themed Lists, and it will basically focus on Snarry, Severitus, Sevitus, and in general fics that DO NOT contain Ginny (although there are some that should be included since they are excellent despite being Harry/Ginny)
