I want to develop drupal multi-site with this structure:
One shared codebase drupal 7 multi-site, each web site has own database.
One master web site that has some tables shared.
Each multi site instances read some tables from master's database, not own database. For example conntent types, fields, views, rules and related configirations read only master's database. So I can develop all sites on one place.
As a result each site must use same content types, views, rules but different contents. I am user 1 of all sites. Sub site editors has create content and user permisions only. I dont want to share users accross sites. So I cant use domain acceess. Is it possible that?
Thanks for your helps.
This module should allow you to accomplish what you are looking for:
https://drupal.org/project/domain
As it states in the module description you can share tables with the domain prefix module. You can select which tables will be shared and which ones will not.

Thank you for helping on this!
I am designing an app with documents and posts sharing with Laravel.
I tried to do it myself since two weeks but I am not sure what the best is.
I've tried implementing many packages and used crud generators, but as a Laravel beginner it's difficult to find the good package and to mix them.
What I want is a system like google docs sharing behaviour but for posts.
You could write a post and set it as
private
shared with those with the secret link
shared with users names list (or ids in database)
shared with groups of users
So what is the best way to build that?
1) Using a package? Which one?
2) table_users | table_posts | table_permissions
one permission per user that can read / edit (permission level)
3) table_users | table_posts including permissions for each posts
owner_id
share_link
users_that_can_read
users_that_can_edit
If anyone can direct me to a good tutorial or give me a good start structure for this tables to be efficient and secure.
Maybe I do not see all the complexity of this so I will enjoy any suggestions
The problem for this is I want a more flexible rights management than wordpress one that provides user rights levels, the availability of data will be managed by simple subscribers for a lot of things(files, posts, maybe comments, groups and maybe more stuff).
You just need to create three tables roles,permissions and roles_permission.The roles of the user goes in the table roles table.the permission of a user are stored in the table permission.You can map the roles and permission of a particular user in the roles_permission table.However,for more flexible way to add role-based-permission use entrust package.In which,you can dynamically add/update/delete the roles and permissions in laravel.
Is it possible in drupal 7 (and any other drupal versions) to have a SHARED DATABASE for 2 sites and the views would change depending on the subdomain / the URL.
Please see the illustration below.
All I want is to have a shared database for multiple site but with multiple view depending on the sub / domain it is accessed and modules / themes scope such as Captcha module should only be visible in the site2.
I'm stuck with this part. My second option is to have 2 database but only 1 database for accessing my site-specific data but for the segregation of content management data I think it would be best if I would have separate database as well for controlling access for modules. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks in advance.
Yes. Drupal DB abstraction and configuration setup is flexible enough to do the scenario you are going for. You will have to deal with users, then again here too it is a question of choice as Drupal allows you to share users or have different userland for each site. There is a book out there on this subject, and many sites to assist in the various multi-site scenario options.
By the way, you can always post your D questions in drupal.stackexchange.
This is easily solved with Panels as you can just choose the right Views view from there.
There is no reason not to use panels on any drupal site imo.
I have implemented several custom modules which essentially bridge Drupal with some third party applications we build in house.
Now as my knowledge of Drupal grows I am curious to know whether or not it is possible to integrate my modules with Drupal VIEWS for reporting purposes.
My modules connect directly to several MySQL databases on an external server and perform queries and render those results within the context of Drupal.
What I would like to do, is use VIEWS somehow to SELECT and manipulate the query as a Drupal VIEW to avoid having to re-purpose the module queries each time a change is requested.
Basically, is it possible to expose the SQL tables in an external app to one which Drupal VIEWS can pick up? I have googled and found a few suggestions but no one seems to know for sure???
It seems drupal expects all content to be of it's own internal "content type" and thus connected to it's core "node" - is this an assumption VIEWS makes?
I don't want to export my third party data into Drupal "nodes, content types, etc" simply so VIEWS can effectively read and render the results.
Seems to me, this should be possible with a Drupal module bridging the gap somehow???
Cheers,
Alex
You could use data module http://drupal.org/project/data
It gives you option to use views on your custom tables. I hope this helps you.
As I know, Sharepoint save all users list in one table. I have several sharepoint lists. And I want to store Data from Sharepoint lists in custom MS Sql Server DB. That difrent Sharepoint lists store data in diffrent tables. I want that this data is stored only in my custom DB (not in sharepoint DB).
And I also want that mutual (many-to-many) links between difrent lists in this DB are. For example I have 2 lists Projects and Emploeyrs one project can have many employers and one employer can work on several projects. I want that if I delete emploer from project link for that project is deleted from this emploer.
Could You recomend me some sollutions for this task?
I think I know what your trying to do :\
You might want to look at this http://www.simego.com/Products/Data-Synchronisation-Studio and use dynamic columns
Sounds like a real mashup, I'd bee using some external components like the ASPxGridView from DevExpress, http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/Controls/ASP/Grid/, to get the list views since you wont be able to use the internal lists.
To interface towards the internal SharePoint lists I'd use the Camelot .NET Connector from Bendsoft, http://www.bendsoft.com/net-sharepoint-connector/.
With that combination it wont really matter where you put the result, it can be used internally in SharePoint as well as externally and it dont matter if you use 2007 or newer either.
I want:
1. To be able to update multiple sites with one upload
2. News page will now database driven
3. Updates in common elements likes LOGOS, COUNTRIES, ADDRESSES, TELEPHONES, FAX NUMBER and EMAIL ADDRESSES can be done with limited HTML knowledge
Hello guys..Is this possible in Drupal 7?
Thanks
It is possible.
But you might need to search for right module or write your own. You might need install the features module or the domain access. But what you are asking is quite general question, with Drupal everything is possible. But you might need to write PHP code for matching your special needs.
