Re: SMF forum, need a mod installed

I’ve done a Joomla site for a customer, and I must say I like Drupal
better, mostly for the admin interface which is easier to use and
integrated into the main site.

Images aren’t loading properly over https, I’ll check it out when I can.

It’s easier to just change the bitcoin.org DNS entry,
forum.bitcoin.org is not necessary.

We could see if we can get a free SSL certificate somewhere, like
http://www.startssl.com/?app=1, so the users wouldn’t get a security
warning from a self-signed certificate. However I don’t know if they
give certificates for anonymously registered domains.

Thanks, that worked, I got File Manager installed with SSH. I also uploaded a few themes into Drupal. I haven’t thoroughly gone through all the available themes yet.

Looked around at CMSes, Drupal and Joomla are popular. Consensus is Joomla has a better selection of themes and is easier to learn, though Drupal may be more intuitive for programmers and customization. Joomla better for CMS, Drupal better for blogs. Drupal’s URLs are search engine friendly, Joomla not.

Both have SMF bridge modules available. For future reference, Drupal’s is named “SMFforum Integration”.
