It was time I upgraded my site to Drupal 7. How to do that, sure I had installed some sites on Drupal 7 from the beginning but I had never upgraded a Drupal 6 site.
So the first thing to do was find out how to do it, thus I started downloading Drupal 7. There was a file named upgrade.txt, well that is a good start. I read it, and thought: “Well this isn't too hard.”.
A client of mine was writing content on his website and he had a question. So I went to see and I noticed something odd in his html. He had a piece of text that he wanted to be strong and emphasized.
You might have heard about drush, or be interested in drush. If not you should.
Drush stands for DRUpal SHell, and anyone who uses drupal seriously really should use it. This is because drush will allow you to install and update Drupal modules apt-get style. And it not only stops at installing and updating modules, it goes from installing Drupal to installing modules, to enabling and disabling modules.
So what do we need?
First of all Drupal, well you don't technically need that but you will probably want it.
