BARRIERS
- static HTML & org capacity
CMS
- WP has biggest market, Drupal is 2nd
Reviewing the UI
Drupal is a software and requires hosting for Apache and MySQL
DRUPAL
- MySQL
- broader Platform than WP
- includes API > functions out of the box
DRUPAL 8
- releases tomorrow
- 2 versions are supported (D6&7 currently)
- Drupal has a big focus on contributed modules
OUT OF THE BOX
- Drupal Core has a fair amount of functions (less than WP)
- Drupal must be built in order to be useful
ROLES
- can be assigned to org members
- permissions can be assigned to different roles
FIELDS
- each content type has a field
- fields are configured after content type is made
- fields also include widgets, expanding the field function
MODULES
- WYSIWIG
- there are standards that help to build the site
- more modules await in Drupal
- a lot can be done with modules
EXAMPLE : KRC (Korean Resource Center)
- Drupal code and modules
SOMETHING ABOUT BACKDROP
- is a fork of Drupal
- takes from D7 and pulls back D8
- this allows smaller sites to stay up longer
- simplifies some drupal functions
OTHER NOTES
- Drupal 8 will improve its extensive multilingual functions
- Rule : don't hack core
- Drupal.org > Project > DL & Extend (>Themes)
- Custom themes are often made with base theme
- Adaptive Theme is a good base theme, this can be built on
