About this title

Synopsis:

Learn to set up, manage, and administer a Drupal Web site

Drupal offers unparalleled flexibility for content-managed Web sites, but most Drupal books are written for expert developers. Drupal For Dummies shows you the fast, fun and easy way to get going with Drupal, set up a site, apply templates, use modules, and more, even if you have no programming experience.

Drupal For Dummies shows you how to take advantage of everything in Drupal that is ready to use, demystifying what may appear to be a complex set of tools.

Drupal is a free, open source modular framework and content management system designed for content-managed Web sites
Learn how to download Drupal, install the LAMP stack, and set up a site; no programming experience required
Organize and create your site's content; apply templates, and get your first site up and running
Use modules and third-party templates
Follow plain-English instructions for site management, including making changes across the site and managing user access and privileges

Drupal For Dummies is designed to help the non-programmer who simply wants to turbocharge a blog or is responsible for administering a content-managed site.

From the Back Cover:

Drop in and check out Drupal, the free, flexible framework for building and managing Web sites

Even if you've never built a Web site and the only thing you've programmed is your DVR, you really can set up a site with Drupal. This book shows you how to find and install the right version of Drupal, how to plan your site, and how to manage it.

Who's in charge — manage an administrator account, establish rules, and control site users
What's on your site — create, manage, and edit your content, and decide whether to allow comments
Where's your region? — work with themes and regions and manage menus
Open forum — create a site with a blog and forum and set up appropriate security
Stay current — keep Drupal up to date, monitor activity on your site, and locate new modules and themes to use
Cover your bases — maintain your database, back it up, and know how to restore it
Move up — see how Drupal can build a robust site that interacts with other sites and how to set up an online store

Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
