Need help with website CMS, drupal
 

asalamualikum rahmatullah brothers,
I recently made a website with WordPress which is albadrproductions.com.
A nice brother helped me set it up and fix the website. I wanted to add allot of functionality to the website so I saw that drupal had more customizability. So I wanted to ask if there is a brother that is experienced with drupal 7 so that they can help me with creating this Islamic educational website. Jazakallah

Wordpress too has good customizability.. we have done lot of projects on wordpress

yes brother i have tried it already but it has a lack of customizability. i cant make many pages look the same but have different content easily. inshallah allah will help. jazakallah

In fact you can make every page look different in wordpress too http://discussworldissues.com/forums...icon_smile.gif

yes brother, i know that but i want to make many pages look similar but only change the content a bit. for example if you go to my website and go to quran>listen to quran> and click on any shaikh , i made every page by hand and it takes alot of work. to my knowledge it is possible to do this with less effort in drupal. maybe i am wrong and inshallah you can help me. jazkallah

look into using templates in wordpress, you can apply different templates to every page and pretty much make the content look however you want

Oh well.. I am not aware of drupal but you can do this in wordpress as well

Yes brother can you please help me make templates asI have no experience. Jazakallah hu Khairan. May Allah reward you.

do you have any php knowledge?

No sorry brother. I have not have any knowledge of php. is there a way you can help me?

i am a sister, im not sure exactly what you are trying to achieve but im sure some brothers around here will have knowledge of wordpress and php and can help you inshaAllah

Salam alaikum

Brother, please send me an email at [clipped] and insha Allah I can help you out. You can do what you want with Wordpress and drupal is overkill.

Assalamualaikum

You don't need to create templates yourself in php.
Begin by doing a google search for "free wordpress templates", choose whichever you like and install it to wordpress. It's that simple http://discussworldissues.com/forums...icon_smile.gif

Salam, i cannot find any templates for wordpress i lookes. i only find themes which i already have.

themes = templates
if you don't like the themes you have, you can search for more..

The brother needs a very specific template, which would have to be custom-written. I am helping him with it, but there won't be any pre-made templates that would do what he needs.

Abid

Oh, then I guess you already know php, css etc and can do it for him.

templates within wordpress are different to themes, you can apply certain templates within a theme and make pages look different

Thanks, I didn't know that
