[Drupal] Version of Drupal

Mon Aug 5 14:07:07 EDT 2013

Chris,

I'd follow Emilie's lead on this. Her group does consulting and seems equipped to possibly help you more directly. You said "Drupal Camp", so I thought you might have been looking for info about DrupalCamp Ohio, which is not until December, and is not going to be of much practical use to you in the next few months.

Hi Chris -

What do you mean by include – do you just want to merge the content from the other sites under the Nisonger site or do they need to remain separate and moved to the same host as the Nisonger site?

Good morning and thanks,
More questions:
I have been asked to take 2 separate websites and include them to our Nisonger site, how difficult would this be? I have basic HTML and CSS knowledge at this point to make edits.
Are there policy issues with doing something like this?
Any help/advice you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated.

Chris,
I believe Drupal 7 is what you are looking for if you are going to release the site soon. Drupal 8 comes out (supposedly) “soon” (like maybe winter this year? …it keeps moving), so if you are willing to pay the cost of being on the cutting edge, you may want to plan for that.  Check out the latest here:https://drupal.org/core/release-cycle<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v1/url?u=https://drupal.org/core/release-cycle&k=ux7ohqYFcw1oDo0gOpSLlw%3D%3D%0A&r=ER85wZV%2FDjfeGsF6jUWwzynRlrCUifBclrMYQ1Thnno%3D%0A&m=XeaYDHzASCkWdGeBLJe88mLdXJ6WCTlN3FGLFRpSNIg%3D%0A&s=1bee98c6e8bdcbe848f49b06c02bfcfb96a14e88a45affcaf0c68cbbc3819d3d>

I am very much a newbie as well, however I went to Drupal Camp last year and a professional trainer gave us this advice: “If you’re even, stay even; if you’re odd, stay odd” – meaning, only upgrade versions of Drupal every other time. This is because the migration from one version to the next is infamously packed with overhead and problems, however support for drupal is usually only the newest one, and the previous 2 versions.

Hope I helped!

Good Morning all,
I am new as well, what is the current/updated version of Drupal that everyone is using here at OSU? We are looking to do a major upgrade to the Nisonger site as well.

Thanks, any help is much appreciated.
