Drupal for Nonprofits


1) Website Planning: This is more of an "overview" document --- you have a great start on your prioritized functionality list. We also request a sample Site Map to show how you want the main navigation to display on the live site.

Note that there is always an option for you to reorganize and/or add new items, because Drupal has menu control

2) This is the checklist of information we go right through http://www.10kwebdesign.com/checklist.php

This is a full list of all the information needed to build the website.

GET A DOMAIN:
GoDaddy.com
HOSTING:
Nexcess.net: Mini-Me or Gettin' Hits packages for larger sites


3) Sample Designs

The Design process includes a review of sites you like and why.

Redesign: http://www.10kwebdesign.com/redesign.php

For design, we recommend you set a budget and stick with it.
Higher end: $450 per customized design
Middle end: ~$200 - $250 to download a theme
Free: Download a free theme

FREE THEMES:

*THEMES for PURCHASE:
http://www.cmsquickstart.com/drupal-themes
http://www.topnotchthemes.com/drupal-ubercart-themes

*(notice that sometimes there are two prices: a price to download and a buyout price, which removes that theme from circulation)

4) Functionality
Consider the functionality you need and the levels of access to the site.

* For example, who can log in to the site?
* What types of users do you have?
* Who can access what types of information?
* Is some information for logged-in users only?

Sample "grid" of permissions for different types of users.
General/PublicMemberAdmin
Access Contact FormXXX
Create calendar itemX
View ProfilesXX
Edit own member profileXX
Edit all member profilesX
Edit pagesX
Upload a photoXX

* Who may edit the page content?
* What are the benefits of membership?
* Who can submit a link to your link list?
* Are there different tiers of membership payments for different benefits?
* What does the directory look like?
* What does a single user's profile page look like?
* Do you need to organize any submitted content into particular "categories" or can items by "free-tagged"?

The more planning time you put into this process of envisioning what you want the site to do, the easier it is when organizing your wishlist into a specifications list.
