    /SW/business/Drupal: Drupal User Manual: How to Edit Content

    This post aims to provide the basic knowledge required to begin editing Drupal content.

    First and most basically, you require an account on the Drupal website you wish to edit. After login, if you click on any menu item to navigate to that page, if you have the privileges to edit that page, you will see an edit (编辑) button or link (this depends on the theme being used) at the top of the page. Click on edit / 编辑, then edit and save the page.

    After you have logged in, if you have been given some admin privileges on the site, you will see an Admin (管理) link in your personal menu under "My account" (我的帐户). Another way to see and edit the pages on the site is to click on "My account" / 我的帐户, and then click on "Content management/Content" (内容管理/内容). You will then be presented with a list of all the content items on the site, which you may then choose to edit individually, or perform various bulk operations on (deleted large quantities of spam posts, for instance).

    To create new content, click on "Create content" (创建内容) and select a content type. For ordinary website page content, you probably want to choose "Page" content. After you click on "Page" and write your content, do not forget to expand the "Menu settings" (菜单设置) and enter a "Menu link title" (菜单链接名称) and select the menu position from the "Parent item" (上级菜单项) dropdown list. (You probably want to select "Primary Links" or one of the items under "Primary Links".)

    Finally, you will probably want to re-arrange the order of the "Primary Links" in the navigation menu at the top of the site. To do this, click on "Admin" --> "Site building/Menus" --> "Primary links" (管理 --> 站点构建/菜单 --> "Primary links"). To change the order or position of menu items, just grab the "+" with your mouse pointer and drag'n'drop. For dropdown menus it is also good practice to click the "Expanded" (展开) checkbox to enable submenus. And finally, click "Save Configuration".
