Uploaded images to Drupal

I have created a new content type called images and uploaded the image for the home page buttons.

Adding Content

I have begun to add content to the website by creating the pages for the site.

Basic Pages:

• Home
• Contact
• Storage
• Repairs
• Advice

Articles:

• Products
• Gallery
• News
• Guns
• Ammo
• Accessories

Preparing to build the website

Now that I have my Drupal installed and my website design I can start building the website. To do this I am working through the Drupal Beginners Cookbook.

https://drupal.org/documentation/customization/tutorials/beginners-cookbook

I am also using the Drupal Site Building Guide as an additional resource during this stage of development.

Setup Drupal Test Server

I have setup the Drupal Test Server on my home PC:

• Installed XAAMP
• Installed phpMyAdmin
• Configured MySQL Database
• Installed Drupal 7.22

I am now ready to start building the website using the Drupal CMS.

Project Overview

This project is to implement the design I have created for the ‘Wagga Firearms’ website. This will involve setting up drupal on the web server and using the drupal CMS to create the webage. See attached design brief.

Stakeholders

Client: Andrew Butts (Wagga Firearms)

Mentor: Liam

Production Team:

·         Gerard Regan – CMS/design

·         Susan Fielding – Logo design

·         Serena –

Project Manager: Gerard Regan

Standards and Expectations

I expect the outcome to be a fully functional and professional looking webpage. I would like the web page to be live online by the due date.

Benefits and outcomes

I am doing this project to help a friend who has recently opened his own business. I hope to gain exposure and more web design work by completing this project. I will also build new skills in web design and development of the CMS.
