To help you get going there's a few good tutorials and resources that really helped me. Firstly install Advanced Help module - that will give you a lot of good info on various key modules such as Views and CCK. go to http://www.lullabot.com and subscribe to their podcast / listen too old ones and look at their video / online tutorials. Some good stuff here too http://drupalschool.blip.tv/ Buy a book there's some good ones out: http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596515805/ - this will probably do the job and i've also got this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1430209895... If you need help on something the first thing to do is search on drupal.org. Use google to search it as its quicker and do it like this: "thing-you-want-to-know site:drupal.org". thing-you-want-to-know is your search terms and the site:drupal.org limits the search to that website. If you want to ask a question on drupal.org go to the module you want help on and post a support request in the module's support queue (or issue queue if theres a bug) - you're much more likely to get help there than in the forum, but if its not relevant there then try the forum. Ask questions using IRC and read this to find out how: http://drupal.org/irc nip along to this, or one of the other upcoming drupal events, and ask some folk if you can too: http://www.drupal.org.uk/event/drupal-drop-lo... hope some of that helps
