I'm looking to build a custom CMS system that will create a homepage which can be replicated up to 15 times for one site. Basically, I have site that has 10-15 regional forums and I'd like to create a homepage for each. Each homepage will work like all of the typical CMS solutions, with recent posts, most active members from that region, upcoming calendar events for that region, etc. The only difference being that each homepage will be pulling data from specified forums, calendars, and member lists based on specific profile data (most active members in the region).

Can Drupal do this? Can it be customized to do this? Is there a possiblity of paying for a customization like this?

How will each homepage be called? It sounds doable with custized blocks.

The pages will be linked to statically from different pages, like the main site homepage, etc.

Can you explain how it might work with the customized blocks? I haven't used Drupal before, so you might have to go into detail.

Check drupal.org for custom block, they have good documentation.

You can use PHP code within your blocks.... so it should not be hard
