Week 9 Completion Checklist
Your final assignment is posted -- build a Drupal website!
For this first week, get Drupal installed.
I'll be posting week 10 at the same time as week 9 -- you don't need to watch both sets of videos together, but I strongly recommend it. Understanding Drupal can benefit from some front-loading, and if you watch both weeks' videos together, you'll be more likely to make good choices when starting to build out your content.
You'll need 10 nodes/pages of content for your final project. Three of the nodes should be of your custom content type -- though in reality, you'll find yourself making mostly custom content on a real site, so keep that in mind as you plan.
Don't forget your WordPress site is due on Friday, March 31.
Checklist:
- Install Drupal
- Enter at least some of your 10 required pages of content to get a feel for the interface
- Make yourself a (physical or mental) wish-list of custom content types (do you want a special "blog entry" type? A type for products? A type for people?)
