Packaging with Drush Make
If you have not downloaded the full Managing News package from http://managingnews.com you can use drush to download all required modules, themes and features.
This assumes basic knowledge of how to install and use drush commands.
- Install drush (if not yet present) and drush_make.
- Create a file mn.make in your working directory with this content:
core = 6.x projects[] = "drupal" projects[] = "managingnews"
- Run
drush make mn.make mymanagingnewsdir
. - Copy the resulting mymanagingnewsdir to your web directory.
See here for instructions on building Managing News for development.
