Setting up Drupal 6.4 as a multi-user blog site

Friday, September 19th, 2008

Ron Fredericks writes: I finally got around to cleaning up my old Drupal 5 site. The solution was to simply start over with Drupal 6.4 – the current stable release. The clean-up was necessary because too many spammers had flooded my old Drupal 5 site. Although there are many core modules bundled with a new Drupal installation, I discovered the hard way that some very important extra modules must be added from the excellent community of Drupal contributors. A good anti-spam module is a case in point.

My WordPress blog on this site is well protected thanks to Akismet. They also have a Drupal project too: drupal.org/project/akismet

Over time, ECI will be adding more of the drupal features to improve its community experience. Drupal includes multi-user blogging as well as forums and many other core and extended modules. You can see my new drupal personal site in action from here [updated for Drupal 6.4 on 9/10/08].
