The path module allows you to specify aliases for Drupal URLs. Such aliases improve readability of URLs for your users and may help internet search engines to index your content more effectively. More than one alias may be created for a given page.

Some examples of URL aliases are:

The locale module allows your Drupal site to be presented in languages other than the default English, a defining feature of multi-lingual websites. The locale module works by examining text as it is about to be displayed: when a translation of the text is available in the language to be displayed, the translation is displayed rather than the original text. When a translation is unavailable, the original text is displayed, and then stored for later review by a translator.

The contact module facilitates communication via e-mail, by allowing your site's visitors to contact one another (personal contact forms), and by providing a simple way to direct messages to a set of administrator-defined recipients (the contact page). With either form, users specify a subject, write their message, and (optionally) have a copy of their message sent to their own e-mail address.

The color module allows a site administrator to quickly and easily change the color scheme of certain themes. Although not all themes support color module, both Garland (the default theme) and Minnelli were designed to take advantage of its features. By using color module with a compatible theme, you can easily change the color of links, backgrounds, text, and other theme elements. Color module requires that your file download method be set to public.

The Blog API module allows your site's users to access and post to their blogs from external blogging clients. External blogging clients are available for a wide range of desktop operating systems, and generally provide a feature-rich graphical environment for creating and editing posts.

Blocks are boxes of content rendered into an area, or region, of a web page. The default theme Garland, for example, implements the regions "left sidebar", "right sidebar", "content", "header", and "footer", and a block may appear in any one of these areas. The blocks administration page provides a drag-and-drop interface for assigning a block to a region, and for controlling the order of blocks within regions.

The menu module provides an interface to control and customize Drupal's powerful menu system. Menus are a hierarchical collection of links, or menu items, used to navigate a website, and are positioned and displayed using Drupal's flexible block system. By default, three menus are created during installation: Navigation, Primary links, and Secondary links. The Navigation menu contains most links necessary for working with and navigating your site, and is often displayed in either the left or right sidebar.

1. In the navigation menu click Administer -> Site Building -> Menus
2. At the top click Add Menu
3. Under Menu name enter the machine-readable name of this menu. This text will be used for constructing the URL of the menu overview page for this menu. This name must contain only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens, and must be unique.
4. Under Title enter the title you would like the menu to have. This can contain spaces and uppercase characters.

1. In the navigation menu click Administer -> Site Building -> Menus
2. Click on the menu you would like to change
3. Click the cross next to the menu you would like to move and drag it to the
   location you would like to move it to. You can drag it left and right
   to either make it a sub menu of another menu or remove it from a submenu
   of another menu.
4. Click Save Configuration
