Description

We are Oregon's statewide digital reference service and are in the process of migrating to Drupal to manage our website content, including public pages, staff pages, meeting minutes, tutorials, newsletters, a blog, and so far, 20,000 anonymized transcripts of past reference questions.

Modules used

Modules we've installed so far are buddylist, customerror, flexinode, forms, nodevote, profile, search_keywords, simpl_access, taxonomy_theme, views, webform and (parts of) a custom module for exposing our custom content to views and search.

It would be great to have a decent XML node module, but so far Flexinode plus a local patch to manage XSL transforms is doing fine.

I'm looking forward to trying out the 'liquid engine wiki project' module.

more on XML

What do you mean when you say that you are using a local patch to manage XSL transforms? I've been playing with methods for displaying MARCXML exported from our catalog in Drupal nodes and I'd like to know more about what you are doing.

I installed the Sablotron XSLT processor, then recompiled PHP with xslt and curl enabled. This permits HTTP access to XML and XSL files, and XSLT transformation to HTML in most nodes. But it sounds like you're doing something more structured with Flexinode.

And it occurs to me that this is probably the sort of discussion that belongs in a forum topic, but its been over a month since this item was posted, so I'll leave it here for now.
