Benefits of Drupal

See our video training samples to appreciate just how easy it is and remember we provide you with your own personalised training videos walking you through updating your site.
Organize the Content of Your Website Using Menus, Categories, and Views
Drupal provides several ways to organize and dynamically display links to your content.
- Primary and Sub Navigation Menus
- Use Custom Content Types to Increase the Speed and Consistency of Content Creation
Most businesses have the need to create multiple types of content such as static pages, blog posts, press releases, videos, etc...
Each type of content has unique components that never change and each type of content needs to be published to specific areas of the site so it makes good business sense to automate the standard processes that never change.
Custom Content Types are especially useful if you have multiple people publishing content to your website as the system ensures that consistency is maintained.
Examples of Custom Content Types
- Page - a regular static page which would be used to create pages such as an About Us page, Privacy Policy and other pages that rarely change and only have the basic needs of text, links, and images.
- Blog - a blog post may have a Title, Summary, Full Description, Author, Date and will display under the Blog category as well have a short description of the blog promoted to the Home Page under the Latest Blog section.
- Video - a video has the need for a Title, Summary, Full Description, Author, Date, Upload Video, Duration, Size, and option to assign to a category.
Review of Benefits of Custom Content Types
- Automates the repetitive processes of content creation, resulting in faster content creation
- Maintain consistency of appearance and organization of your content
Define the Publishing Work Flow of Your Website
Drupal allows you to setup a publishing work flow for your website.
Example Work Flow Scenario#1:
A news website has several content categories such as Sports, Weather, Politics, etc...
Drupal allows the news website to to create multiple user groups such as Sports Writer and Sports Editor. Users assigned to the Sports Writer role have the ability to create content that goes into moderation for the Sports Editor to review. The Sports Editor can then review, approve, and publish the article live to the website.
Example Work Flow Scenario #2:
A non-profit health organization provides a forum for people to discuss health issues. The forum is configured to require User Registration before posting to the forum. This prevents anonymous users from spamming the website. To further reduce spam, Drupal is configured so that the first 5 posts are moderated by the administrator. After approval of 5 posts, the user is deemed trustworthy and can then post to the site without moderation.
Define Read/Write Permissions for Multiple Groups of Users
Drupal provides the ability to create multiple groups of users and assign unique permissions to each group.
Example Scenario of Using Multiple User Groups and Permissions:
An ad agency creates radio ads for Dentists. The ad agency develops the script in-house but outsources the voice overs to three local voice over experts.
Drupal is used to create five user groups.
1. Script Writer
2. Voice Over
3. Management
4. Client
5. Radio Station
The Script Writer user group has the ability to post a script to the site which goes into moderation for Management to review. Management has the ability to approve the script and notify the Client that the script is ready for review.
The Client is able to review the script and post comments that are viewable by both the Script Writer and Management.
Upon client approval of the script, Management is then able to notify the Voice Over user that the script is approved and ready for voice over production.
The Voice Over user produces the audio file and uploads to the system. Management approves the content which then gets published for the Client to review, post comments, and give final approval.
