How can I manage Drupal blog's posts? - drupal

I want to create a blog using Drupal 7 (because the customer told me that). The problem is, when the blog has too many posts, it's hard to manage these entries. Is there anyone know a plugin or a module that can help me manage blog's posts like Wordpress ?
Thanks.

You can try https://www.drupal.org/project/admin_views and built the content page View how you want it to make it more manageable.

Wordpress shop page

Hoping someone can be able to assist. So I am working on a Wordpress site that has woocommerce, my concern is that the shop page uses its own theme, and I want it to be all the same (hope I am making sense) for an example my shop page header (including menu responsiveness) is completely different to the rest of the site. How can I fix this? I am not really good at coding hoping someone will be able to provide a more understandable solution. Thanks

Transferring content from wordpress page to post

what's the best way for me to copy content from my wordpress pages into a post?
I'm not an SEO nor IT expert, but I do know a little about duplicate content, URLs, slugs and stuff like that, but not enough to know how best to convert in 7 of my pages into posts.
I've thought of
1) copying the html from the pages into posts and putting a rel=canonical in the pages to the corresponding posts (based on my understanding, my first choice)
2) Use a page to post wordpress plugin (not my first choice - afraid the plugin will break things)
Any help? Thank you!
Have you tried 'Post Type Switcher' plugin? I've used it and it worked without issues.

Would it be possible to get this theme work for wordpress multisite?

I have been reading up on wordpress multisite and am a little confused with something.
When someone posts a new article on their blog what will it show up on my main site as? If they give it a category will it show up on the main site in this category?
This is the theme i would like to use and as you can see its in a sort of grid system so when someone posts something on their blog will it be placed here?
I have asked the theme author but his reply was a simple not been tested with it.
theme: http://themeforest.net/item/flyingnews-responsive-wordpress-magazine/4052664
Thanks for your help.
Wordpress multisite allows you to create several distinct blogs on one WP install. If you create a post on one of the blog, it won't be shown on the others. In the database, the blogs are stored in different tables (wp_... for blog 1, wp2_... for blog 2 etc.)

Using Wordpress permalinks with no posts attached

I am moving an old Drupal 4 installation to Wordpress 3, and rather than trying to go through the pain of moving the thousands of posts over, my plan is to leave the old site running on a subdomain (old.site.com).
I'm able to set up the wordpress permalinks to look like the URLs the Drupal site's pathauto module was generating, but now I need to create permalinks for all those old posts that don't exist on the new site. For example:
http://site.com/author-name/title-of-post exists on the old Drupal site.
I want to create a permalink in Wordpress with the same URL, then have it forward to http://old.site.com/author-name/title-of-post
This way any existing Google indices that point to the existing post will still work, and (hopefully) we don't lose any Google prominence
What is the best way to do this? Thanks in advance.
Bonus Question: Does anyone actually know how this would affect SEO?
I would add the following plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/
And then create blank pages or posts in WordPress to get the link structure you want. The plugin adds an option to the post edit screen to set a 301 redirect to your other URL. That should provide the mechanics of what you want to do.
As for SEO, it's suboptimal for the new site since spiders, visitors, and bookmarks will all end up on the old site. I would use the above as a temporary solution and slowly copy/paste the content over or figure out a clever database import to move it over. In the long run, that will be better for you.

Image gallery in wordpress

Is it possible to create an image gallery in wordpress that is managed by the admin via it's own page / panel. I am not talking about creating a new post and adding custom html for each image. I mean actually having a page in the admin that has the ability to upload and manage your images?
If it is possible how do you go about creating a custom page like this? I understand the PHP side of uploading and manipulating images, but I don't know how to integrate it with wordpress. I don't need a full blow tutorial on how to do this, but if you could just point me in the right direction that would be great.
One issue that comes to mind right away, is if this is possible would upgrading wordpress break the code? Since I assume you have to edit the admin files directly and you can't just do it from your own custom template?
From playing around I found NextGEN Gallery (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/) that has a tab in your admin panel. It looks like it would meet your needs.
You can manage all your media from the WordPress Media Library using tags if you install Tag Gallery
It requires the Media Tags plugin but it makes managing galleries so much easier and your using the built in media facilities of WordPress so it's not disjoint from the experience. There is a new version in the works that will offer much more impressive functionality as well.
Hope that helps.
There are a huge amount of image galleries for wordpress already made. Have a quick google for some (search "wordpress image gallery") and see if any of them are suitable (I'll be surprised if one of them isn't).
Failing that, you'll need to create yourself a Wordpress Plugin.
I've integrated ZenPhoto into my wordpress blog. It was pretty easy, would probably take you a few hours. The admin pages are completely separate from the wordpress admin pages, so you can easily give access to only one person.
You can create a custom post type called Gallery to manage create and manage image galleries. The post will have its own "Gallery" panel in the admin section and from there you can add new galleries just as you describe. There are lost of tutorials for creating gallery custom post types.
