I numbered your questions for easier referencing.

1 and 2. Change the defaults assocaited with each content type how you want them. The "administer node" access privilege controlls whether users can chage this. Configure the content types at: administer->content then click on configure tab, then click on content types sub-tab.

3. This is done in administer->themes then click on the configure tab. You can there tell drupal not to include pictures in posts.

Hi all,

I just recently switched from Joomla to Drupal, and my first impression is quite good (and I hope this won't change) although I have to admit, that I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the possible modules and code snippets that are available.

Right now I'm looking for a way to:

1. Display only "pages" on the index webpage (and not blogs or forum topics), i.e. only administrators should have the possibility to promote nodes to the front page

2. Give all registered users the possibility to submit content, but before it is published, it should be approved by a moderator.

3. I would like to have the nodes on the front page displayed without the photo of the author (as on www.drupal.org)

Can you tell me what code snippets/modules I have to install for this or how I can change the configuration in that sense?

And an additional question: Is there a way to forward all forum contributions to a mailing list?

Thanks in advance for any useful advise.

Simon
