In the first post of this series I covered migrating and backing up content in Drupal 6. Today it will be Drupal 6 modules.
It was only 15 days ago I was bemoaning my meagre collection of books to review, and here I am with six more! Sleepless nights FTW!
As you might infer from my tweets, I have a love-hate relationship with Drupal. I want to document here what I gathered in my quest to move my blog to Drupal 6, to spare you some of the back path-breaking work.
I hope to cover what I learnt about Drupal 6 migration, modules, and design in 3 posts. I assume you have a blog running Drupal 5 and you know the meaning of a Web Server or a Database.

I use Comment Closer to close comments on old posts to reduce spam on my blog. I wanted visitors to know immediately if a post was no longer accepting comments, and give them alternative means of contacting me about the post. You can see it in action in these two old posts: post with comments, post with no comment. Here is how I did this in Drupal 6:
