Hi oldhasbeen and welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com]

A search here for Drupal turns up just a few, really old (2009 - 2012) discussions. There are people here who use Drupal, but far fewer discussions than you might find on say, WP. I think that is because WP draws in more 'beginning' people than Drupal. I tried it once and it was way more CMS than I was looking for at that time.

The forum where you might find Drupal related questions (and answers) is our Content Management [webmasterworld.com] forum. It has a CMS FAQ section here: [webmasterworld.com...] with links to various Drupal help/faq discussions.

Drupal.org might be a more current source of help.

Thanks not 2easy. Might need may my organisation to fork out for some proper training for me. Drupal’s a lot harder to get started with then WordPress

Drupal’s a lot harder to get started with then WordPress

Maybe so now that one might be familiar with WordPress, but from a beginners point of view I found Drupal a lot easier, and the resultant web pages a lot cleaner.

But while I still maintain a web site for each of the popular CMS, none are using the latest themes, some of which could be confusing.

Does anyone on this board have any experience with Drupal?

I built several sites with Drupal, liked it a lot.

Sorry to say this, but there is a difficult road ahead. Drupal has lost a lot of users, and they made it a lot harder because they changed Drupal so much... every major upgrade became entirely a diff product, so, when you ask about Drupal, it's better to include details, like what version you are using in order to filter the audience and advice.

I stopped using it, not because I didn't like it, it's because I think the community (and the Drupal group) kinda killed it. You need to know tons of things in order to get it working, and lots of things just to deal with installation and upgrades. And to make matters worse, the knowledge doesn't really adds up on major updates. I know some will disagree, but in my case despite my love for the tool, at this point in my life I would probably walk away from Drupal, knowing every X years I will have to almost rebuild everything. Not cool.

A long-time WP & Drupal user (and former moderator here) once said something to the effect of "Doing simple things is easy with WP and hard with Drupal; doing complex things is hard with WP and easy with Drupal."

As explorador mentioned, specifying which version of Drupal you're using is critical. We re-developed our sites in 7.x many years ago. (It looks like the current version is 10.x.) We have so many modules and custom programming that we'd have to pretty much completely rewrite all the sites to upgrade- not worth it for us.

Look around for a Drupal Camp near you. They're usually free (or at least very cheap), and attendees/presenters tend to be very helpful answering questions and offering advice. At least that's the way it was several years ago when I went to one (and heard from many others that it's the same at others).

Thanks for the advice. Sadly there's no Drupal camp planned in England.
I've got a cheap Udemy course to learn some Drupal basics, which I will complete and try to do the required work on my organisation's Drupal site, but if it's too difficult I may advise doing a new site in WordPress instead. I know some great sites have been built in Drupal, but the learning curve may be too much for a small not-for-profit group, and my aged brain.
