Comments on: Content Management Systems use at the UW http://blog.orenblog.org/2009/01/26/content-management-systems-use-at-the-uw/ This is where you say something clever Wed, 15 Feb 2012 06:16:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Alex Merz http://blog.orenblog.org/2009/01/26/content-management-systems-use-at-the-uw/#comment-975 Tue, 20 Apr 2010 02:49:33 +0000 http://blog.orenblog.org/?p=2355#comment-975 This is useful information. Thanks for compiling it.

One more data point: I am running two WordPRess sites.

My lab’s site is public: http://www.merzlab.org

My course’s site is NetID-protected, and restricted to instructors and students: https://courses.washington.edu/bioc406/

So far I’m happy with WordPress, butI’m thinking about using Drupal for the next site, which will be public and have heavier traffic.

If you’re using the PUBCOOKIE module for authentication, you can redirect users to the pubcookie module instead by adding the following to Drupal’s .htaccess file:

# Redirect logins to pubcookie
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^user/login.*$ login/pc [NC,L]

This assumes you’re using pubcookie’s default “login” setting for the login directory.

- There are some UW-specific Drupal install instructions at: http://www.washington.edu/computing/web/publishing/drupal.html

At the bottom of those instructions it says:

“If you want to use Pubcookie authentication on your Drupal site, you should use the Webserver authentication plugin.” which lives at:

http://drupal.org/project/webserver_auth

There’s also a shibboleth drupal module that a couple of people are using successfully:

http://drupal.org/project/webserver_auth

and Dan Druliner sent some instructions for using the PubCookie drupal module, which you should be able to find on the techsupport mail list archive.

http://drupal.org/project/pubcookie

Does that help?

As a Drupal user, developer/contributer it warms my heart to see people using Drupal :) drupal is a great CMS and application framework
