This book provides that and much more. Chapters 1 though 5 are what I would consider the basics of learning how to get around Drupal 6 themes. 1 to 3 cover theme elements, setup & ...             Building Powerful and Robust Websites with Drupal 6: Build your own professional blog, forum, portal or ...21 reviews David Mercer Packt Publishing, 2008 Good start for Drupal developers but... Overall, this is a good read and I would not hesitate recommending it. The author is clear and the book is structured well. My only complaint is that the author spends too much effort on low-level stuff like explaining basic HTML, CSS, and comparisons of image types. This is the kind of stuff that should be skipped when we're on the level of "building powerful and roboust" websites. I ...             Learning Drupal 6 Module Development: A practical tutorial for creating your first Drupal 6 modules with PHP10 reviews Matt Butcher Packt Publishing, 2008 Excellent Hands-On Way to Learn Working through this book is like having a Drupal expert sit down and walk you through everything you need to know to jump into Drupal module development. It's a pleasant read with a really nice balance between information and practical application. I was surprised at how quickly I was creating my first module. There is some excellent information on how the core modules of Drupal work as ...             Drupal 6 Social Networking1 review Michael Peacock Packt Publishing, 2009 Great book, very newbie friendly I recently got a copy of this book from Packtpub and went through it, working through the material on my local WAMP install. I have to say that this is one of the best newbie books out there for Drupal. While I'm not a Drupal newbie, I enjoyed this book and can see the benefit it would hold for any audience. The author assumes that you have no knowledge of Drupal and walks you step by step ...             Pro Drupal Development50 reviews John K. VanDyk, Matt Westgate Apress, 2007 Highly recommended I own 3 Drupal 6 books, and this is by far the most useful and informative. As a software engineer, I immediately grasped the fundamentals of Drupal within the first 2 chapters.             Leveraging Drupal: Getting Your Site Done Right (Wrox Programmer to Programmer)4 reviews Victor Kane Wrox, 2009 A planned approach to successful web development In creating web sites, there will be those who will find their strength in the Theming/User Interface side, and those who are wizards at functionality, creating modules that add yet more capabilities. I would consider this book best for the project manager or small shop developer who has to oversee the entire process while interacting with clients, developers and designers, and wants a thorough ...             Drupal Multimedia10 reviews Aaron Winborn Packt Publishing, 2008 The book covers exactly what it claims to cover, and does so well This book is relatively short, coming in at about 240 pages. It is also focused on only one part of using Drupal, which means that you don't have to sift through a lot of information you are not going to use. This is definitely not a basic, "here's how to install and get started easily" sort of text, but more of a precise guide to using Drupal to serve various forms of media files in a way that ...             Pro Drupal Development, Second Edition (Beginning from Novice to Professional)15 reviews John K. VanDyk Apress, 2008 The best tech book I've bought since Programming Perl I don't like reading programming books. I've been developing software for over 20 years with a dozen different languages so I've no patience for wading through obligatory "Hello, world" exercises and elementary programming examples. But with Drupal having such a bizarre API I forced myself to start reading Pro Drupal Development from the beginning rather than cherry picking the data as I ...             Drupal 6 Site Builder Solutions3 reviews Mark Noble Packt Publishing, 2008 Definitely helps you build some site solutions with Drupal I've just read Drupal 6 Site Builder Solutions by Mark Noble and think it's got a lot of good things going on. This book, like a lot of Drupal books out there, presents some basic methods for installing and setting up a Drupal website but what it does differently is look at every tutorial and example through the lens of a small business. In fact, the whole book is tutorial after tutorial of ...             Using Drupal18 reviews Angela Byron, Addison Berry, ... O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2008 Perfect solution, you must have a book for Drupal 6 After a year of struggling through and figuring out how to use Drupal 5 -- and tentatively experimenting with Drupal 6, only to throw in the towel -- this book came to my rescue. If you're not a hardcore programming geek, it is insane to use the Drupal content management system without a good reference manual or two. Tiny problems that have relatively easy solutions can swallow days and weeks ...             Cracking Drupal: A Drop in the Bucket Greg Knaddison Wiley, 2009 The first book to reveal the vulnerabilities and security issues that exist in the sites that have been built with Drupaland how to prevent them from continuing Drupal is an open source framework and content management system that allows users to create and organize content, customize presentation, automate tasks, and manage site visitors and contributors.

Being pretty new to Drupal I had been using the documentation at the Drupal site. It is good for starting off but my company, Savant Creative Group - [...] - needs to develop our own themes. The book is well written, well documented and not too heavy on PHP. It is great for design people who know html and css.             Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery1 review Matt Butcher Packt Publishing, 2009 Wow, this is easier than I thought Drupal version 6 ships with a Drupal JavaScript library (drupal.js) as well as a fairly recent and powerful library that is gaining followers rapidly called jQuery. I have been waiting for this book to come out for months, since I first heard that it was being written. Now that I have had a chance to read it, I must say that it does not fail to please. What I wanted to learn was why Drupal ...             Drupal Essential Training2 reviews Tom Geller lynda.com, Inc, 2008 I'm the author, and I like it. :) Just a quick note to say that creating this seven-hour video series was a *wonderful* experience: The folks at Lynda.com are great, and I'm extremely proud of what we produced. I recommend it people who: a) Are trying to understand what a CMS is; b) Want to see how Drupal works, in order to decide whether to use it; c) Have decided to use Drupal and want a step-by-step guide to making it ...             Front End Drupal: Designing, Theming, Scripting (Developer's Library) Konstantin Käfer, Emma Hogbin Prentice Hall PTR, 2009 ?For Drupal to succeed, we need books like this.? ?Dries Buytaert, Drupal founder and project lead   ?Drupal faces a common problem on the Web?the relative lack of new, high quality themes. Front End Drupal tackles this problem directly and is designed to help both experienced designers and rank novices get an understanding of how Drupal theming works. In fact, I?ll be the first to admit I learned a lot from this book.? ? ...             Drupal for Education and E-Learning4 reviews Bill Fitzgerald Packt Publishing, 2008 learn drupal using this great "cookbook" Drupal for Education and E-Learning Another great book in the drupal revolution! This book is unique in that it is really a "cookbook" for a teacher (of any kind) to setup a new drupal site to use to enhance their classes. The target audience is new or intermediate drupal users. The examples go through creating a very usable class oriented website, but the skills illustrated in the book ...             Build Websites With Drupal, 100 Most Asked Questions on Drupal - The Free and Open Source modular framework ...1 review Andrew Haney Emereo Pty Ltd, 2008 Not worth it This book has grammatical and tense errors, like it was translated from another language. That wouldnt be too bad though, if it actually had some useful information.             Selling Online with Drupal e-Commerce: Walk through the creation of an online store with Drupal's e-Commerce ...4 reviews Michael Peacock Packt Publishing, 2008 A book that works! I have read many books about using particular software applications. Almost always the instructions given are incomplete or don't work without some technical work on the part of the reader. Normally the author of the book hasn't paid enough attention to the state already stored on his or her computer and, when a reader follows the written instructions, all sorts of peculiar little problems arise: ...             Building Online Communities With Drupal, phpBB, and WordPress29 reviews Robert T. Douglass, Mike Little, ... Apress, 2005 Building Online Communities With Drupal, phpBB, and Wordpress Building Online Communities With Drupal, phpBB, and Wordpress was very helpful. I found the sections very helpful and easy to understand.             Drupal: Creating Blogs, Forums, Portals, and Community Websites: How to setup, configure and customise this ...23 reviews David Mercer Packt Publishing, 2006 Don't buy this book! Consider the new edition If you are new to Drupal (and those are the only people who shold be buying this book), I suggest you think twice about it. This book is perfectly good and I got a lot of value out of it when I was starting out a few months back, but there is a NEWER VERSION out. The new edition covers Drupal version 6 which is the latest version of the Drupal software. This edition covers version 5.
