לפני 3 חודשים יצא הספר של פאקט לניהול אתר. הוא לא משהו, לדעתי - קצת מערברב בין הוספת תכנים כמשתמש-קצה לבין עבודות מנהלן באמת - אלה עבודות שדורשות הרשאות שונות, ורצוי שתהיה הפרדה.

עם זאת, יש להם נספח מוצלח "איך לחפש עזרה בדרופל", שאני מרשה להביא לעצמי כאן, היות שזה רק עושה להם פרסומת, אז ההעתקה נראית לי הוגנת.
אני אוסיף שאם את/ה לא יודעים אנגלית, אז קודם תשפרו את האנגלית שלכם, אחרת לא תגיעו רחוק מכיון שרוב המקורות הם באנגלית.

Where to find help
There are a few different levels of help available. Keep in mind that Drupal is a
free product, and as such no one owes you any help. With that said, the Drupal
community is large and friendly, and help can easily be found.
Low-priority help
If you have a question that doesn't require an immediate response, then you can start
by Googling your question (include 'Drupal' in the keywords), or by performing a
search at the Drupal web site: drupal.org.
If you cannot fnd an answer there, or just hate reading 50 articles in the hope that
one will be even slightly related to your question, then you can try searching the
Drupal forum. If your question hasn't been asked and answered already, then you
can post it. The Drupal forum is located at drupal.org/forum.
Medium-priority help
If you would prefer a more timely response, or think that your question would better
be served by a dialog, rather than emails, then you can try the Drupal chat channels.
If you have not used IRC (Internet Relay Chat) before, then it might take a little
getting used to, but for the most part, it's like being in any chat room, except that
everything said is related to the channel name.
You should start by downloading a chat client, such as Chatzilla, which is a free IRC
client that ties into Firefox.
The main things to remember when in a technical chat channel:
Don't say 'hi' and wait for a response. Add your question on the
same line.
Don't ask if you can ask a question—just ask!
Make your question concise. You can add the details afterwards. You're
apt to get more attention if your question is one or two short sentences
rather than a long screed.
Don't copy and paste a bunch of code or error messages, etc. If you
need to provide that kind of information, then navigate your browser to
pastebin.com (for text) or imagebin.com (for images) and paste it
there. Then copy the link you're given and paste the link in the chat.
Be polite! These people don't 'work for' Drupal. You're asking for
'customer service' from someone who is a knowledgeable product user,
not an employee of a company from which you purchased something.
High-priority help
High-priority help comes in the form of paid assistance. There is a plethora of
knowledgeable Drupal developers out there, but please, please, please don't let
someone you don't know touch your site. Use a consulting company with a good
reputation, such as AyenDesigns.com. Get references and check them, or use a
moderated job site, such as Elance.com or Rentacoder.com, to obtain assistance.
If you use your cousin's friend who's good with computers, then you're asking for
what you get.
