creating a website for my biology students.

By satyanand on 22 Nov 2010 at 10:10 UTC

I am a biology teacher and i want to create a website for my students where they can go for classification easily. Like :
Plant (divide in 2 parts)
Thallus/valcular
vascular(divided in two parts)
......
so its like a nested structure which can go 6-8 level deeper.
I am trying to build it with drupal but have no prior experience and have very little programming knowledge. I have spent quite a time learning it but finding it difficult.

I have seen in the first page itself when i click
adminster -> content management -> forums which is 3 level deeper

my requirement is upto 6-8 . can it be done ? if yes , how should a proceed
which modules i need for it?

I want to add a comment section below every page so that they can comment according to its difficulty level and i focus more on the difficult section.

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do or what you mean about going deeper. Basically you can make Drupal go as deep as you want page wise.

Drupal is so versatile you can basically get it to do anything you want with a bit of experience. I use it for all my webdesign projects except the most basic sites.

Planning is the key. Draft out the functionality you want first. Then you need to decide on the modules you will need. Then the design. That's how I work. On paper first.

You will probably not get much help with what you have put above as it is not clear what you want the site to do in any detail. If you elaborate we might be able to help.

Cheers
