roy_One of the issues I'm going to have to deal with in my dissertation is the incredible antipathy among conservatives toward Obama. And well, some of it clearly has been racist.

roy_"Those "node" links show that the data is still there, right?"Apr 13 15:19
roy_Nope. They are just part of the info Drupal need to create each web page.Apr 13 15:19
roy_Assuming he's on a hosted service and should have access to something like phpMyAdmin with which he can do most database management ... like Roy's DB recovery command. Roy's info needs to be done from the command line and standard hosted accounts usually don't provide a command line interface.Apr 13 15:19
roy_My suggestion would be to download the entire database in case it can be fixed or you (or someone) can take the time to extract some useful info from it to recreate the site.Apr 13 15:19
roy_Further I'd consider rebuilding the site if you can buck yourself up for such a task. Remember from my prior comment here, if the Drupal site was hacked it's best to start from scratch. It took our Drupal guy and myself about 9 days working from 2-5 hours each day to slowly troubleshoot and restore bits of the hacked Drupal 7 site.Apr 13 15:19
roy_If a rebuild is required, seriously consider if one needs to use Drupal. Updates and security are not as straight forward as most. In fact Drupal recommends maintaining two sites: a live site and a development site.Apr 13 15:19
roy_Wordpress is more user friendly with plug-ins, security and updates. Concrete5 is somewhat between Drupal and Wordpress.Apr 13 15:19
roy_Depending on the size of the site, you may not require a full blown database to run create the website. You may find similar Content Management Systems (CMS) -- Drupal is a CMS -- far easier to maintain and faster.Apr 13 15:19
roy_One CMS that uses XML to hold website data is GetSimple CMS (http://get-simple.info).Apr 13 15:19

roy_"Those "node" links show that the data is still there, right?"Apr 13 15:17
roy_Nope. They are just part of the info Drupal need to create each web page.Apr 13 15:17
roy_Assuming he's on a hosted service and should have access to something like phpMyAdmin with which he can do most database management ... like Roy's DB recovery command. Roy's info needs to be done from the command line and standard hosted accounts usually don't provide a command line interface.Apr 13 15:18
roy_My suggestion would be to download the entire database in case it can be fixed or you (or someone) can take the time to extract some useful info from it to recreate the site.Apr 13 15:18
roy_Further I'd consider rebuilding the site if you can buck yourself up for such a task. Remember from my prior comment here, if the Drupal site was hacked it's best to start from scratch. It took our Drupal guy and myself about 9 days working from 2-5 hours each day to slowly troubleshoot and restore bits of the hacked Drupal 7 site.Apr 13 15:18
roy_If a rebuild is required, seriously consider if one needs to use Drupal. Updates and security are not as straight forward as most. In fact Drupal recommends maintaining two sites: a live site and a development site.Apr 13 15:18
roy_Wordpress is more user friendly with plug-ins, security and updates. Concrete5 is somewhat between Drupal and Wordpress.Apr 13 15:18
roy_Depending on the size of the site, you may not require a full blown database to run create the website. You may find similar Content Management Systems (CMS) -- Drupal is a CMS -- far easier to maintain and faster.Apr 13 15:18
roy_One CMS that uses XML to hold website data is GetSimple CMS (http://get-simple.info).Apr 13 15:18

schestowitz__It's excellent slave-training, but otherwise a joke. It bunches a big group of soft targets at a choke-point, our borders are wide open (I'd estimate 50% of my apartment complex are here illegally), and crazy pilots can still fly a plane into a mountain (because of the "security" door)...Apr 18 08:55
