Hi there,
Is it possible to integrate datafeeds into drupal with out programing knowledge?
How do I do that, with dreamweaver? Or there is such feature in Drupal?
Can I insert datafeeds as pages in Drupal?
To learn Drupal do I have to have some programming knowledge?
Thanks,
Vadim

I don't know if there is a built-in module for datafeeds in Drupal. It might need to be custom coded.

Here is a tutorial on the subject:

Drupal doesn't require programming knowledge as an end-user/site admin, but if you want to customize the functionality programming knowledge is helpful.

If you're looking for a plug&play datafeed script check out GoldenCAN, WebMerge, or DataFeedFile. If you're using Wordpress check out - http://www.wordpressdatafeedimport.com/

This brings up something I don't quite understand, Jeremy.

Your Ultramobileguide.com site is built on Drupal but your landing page and the datafeed load was done with navicat-->fireworks--->dreamweaver combo.

My question is how were you able to build the landing page in dreamweaver and keep the same design throughout the rest of the site?

I know dreamweaver creates entries in the stylesheets for the page it creates but how were you able to use that same style for the whole site?

I guess what I'm asking is how did you merge your landing page into the overall Drupal system?

I've been working with WP for the last six months so I understand some CSS but this is throwing me for a loop and I want to use Drupal for my site with a datafeed.
