Thanx drupal
This is the first guide for drupal in Arabic, we work at it for more than 3 month as a group of young people.
Before working on this project we take a look at drupal as a wonderful cms, then we decide to learn more about it. We found after a weeks of research that there is a few of Arabic drupal users, we think that the languages was the wall prevent them to learn drupal. So we start building this guide.
This guide cover the basics things in drupal, it consists of eight chapters
1-Introduction: talking about the web, cms, php, mysql, server, and give a tiny declaration about drupal, joomla and wordpress.
2-In chapter two we talk about drupal history. How does drupal work, positive and negative of drupal, and some faq about drupal license.
3-In the chapter three, we talk some deep about drupal, how to install it depending version 5 and 6. what is modules, themes, blocks, menu and node.
4-Chapter four is about the core module of drupal, we talk about configuration and how to use these modules.
5-In chapter five to talk about contributed modules(cck – views – panels – image – imagecache – lightbox2 – imce - fckeditor)
6-Chapter six is about update drupal
7-Chapter seven about migration, steps to do before migration, and how to migrate from joomla, woordpress and phpbb to drupal.
8-Chapter eight include additional things how to do with drupal, how to translate to Arabic, drupal terms dictionary, case studies, resources and books help us to make this guide and finally list of sites using drupal
