Hi all, I am looking at the administration of drupal from outside of my workplace environment, there I use drush ssh my own image editor (gimp or inkscape) gvim itsalltext (firefox plugin)
since I am doing sites for a clinic where access to the internet is restricted to standard ports (80 and 443, 8080) but not allowed to even use smtp, imap and of course no ftp or ssh. I am really restricted in administering my site from there, and also people cannot easily update and upgrade the site.
I have found that I can install and upgrade modules through the web in drupal and even tried live_css (which does not work for me so well)
What are you using in such a case where you need to hand over much of the administration to people that cannot use ssh, ftp etc. Any ideas?
The issue with the css is not so important, since those changes should rarely be needed and could be done from outside the restricted area...
More important is the administration workflow: I am currently using: http://drupal.org/project/backup_migrate http://drupal.org/project/admin_menu http://drupal.org/project/wysiwyg
What is your experience with: http://drupal.org/project/elysia_cron http://drupal.org/project/menu_admin_per_menu http://drupal.org/project/elfinder http://drupal.org/project/mailhandler http://drupal.org/project/fasttoggle
Most importantly I am looking for a way to deal with files, with a lot of files to download (restricted access to site-members) and upload (multi-upload / multi-download) File reordering, file pulling in from filesystem (either just using the filesystem as the storage or reading an existing folder hierarchy into the database), fle renaming, tagging etc.
