I have been learning more about Drupal as I get deeper into the making of BTMs new site and the deeper I go the more I like. Today I spent time setting up the sites category hierarchy. Drupal uses a system of Taxonomies. A taxonomy is a hierarchy of related terms. What taxonomies offer is a way to have terms inherit from multiple parents, this makes organizing a news site and offering related articles easy and super effective.
The CCK module is proving to be as useful as advertised as I can include all the data necessary about an article all stored in appropriate custom fields. My goal is to get the sites skeleton structure finished before the end of week five so that I can begin migrating the content while I am still here. This way I can get Stanley (BTMs future webmaster) familiar with the system and working with me to get the new site ready for launch.
