marketing plan for Drupal 7 launch

Dries should just play this video.

Then he should simply read the following and leave the stage.

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Solo solo

Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday, mayday
Gonna leave this reigon
They'll take me with them

Drupal 7

incongruous colouring

When logged in and using the default Barthik theme, the Admin is black, the header section is blue and the footer section is, err, brown which looks a little unprofessional and incongruous.

bug in 'Recent blog posts'

The 'More' link is malformed as it specifies '/drupal//drupal/blog'.

I suspect this might be caused by the installation in a sub-directory and not the Web root.

path auto test

This URL should be '/blog/andyc/path-auto-test'.

ordering elements in the sidebar

Navigate to 'Structure-Blocks' and click 'Show Row weights' and configure the blocks appropriately.

A weight with a low number (range is -9 to +9) are displayed higher up on the sidebar....

displaying the 'About' page

Create the page and add it to the 'Main Menu'.

The Barthik theme automatically displays the pages in the header.

D7 modules

So far I have added the Mollom and Markdown modules to this Drupal 7 site.

If I was migrating my blog, I would also need

  • Google Analytics
  • Feedburner
  • XML sitemap

Also, and this is the biggest issue, the ability to preserve my permalink structure of '/yyyy/mm/dd/post'

markdown test

My favourite fruits are:

  • apples
  • bannanas
  • oranges

My favourite quote is:

'Those who forget the past are condemned to relive it.'

This is an example inline link.
