Overview
Drupal
is
an
open
source
content
management
platform
supported
by
a
robust
community.
You
can
learn
a
lot
about
Drupal
at
drupal.org.
The
PSU
Drupal
website
content
management
system
is
an
enterprise
tool
for
managing
websites
at
Portland
State
University.
Any
site
with
an
address
that
follows
the
pattern
www.pdx.edu/sitename/
uses
Drupal.
Log
in
to
Drupal
Log
in
to
your
Drupal
site
by
going
to
www.pdx.edu/sitename/login,
replacing
the
sitename
with
your
site’s
name.
Example:
www.pdx.edu/ucomm/login.
When
prompted,
enter
your
Odin
username
and
password
and
click
the
Login
button.
To
access
sites
in
the
stage
environment
(as
opposed
to
live
sites
in
production),
log
in
by
going
to
stage.pdx.edu/sitename/login.
Your
role(s)
Besides
your
Odin
credentials,
your
access
to
a
Drupal
site
depends
on
which
role
or
roles
you’ve
been
assigned.
You
could
have
no
roles,
one
role,
or
more
than
one
role
in
a
given
site,
and
you
may
have
different
roles
for
different
sites.
In
live
sites,
the
majority
of
users
have
one
role:
Content
Manager.
In
sites
on
stage.pdx.edu,
some
users
have
the
additional
role
of
Site
Manager.
PSU
themes
A
theme
is
a
collection
of
design
elements
and
configurations
that
apply
to
a
site.
The
top-‐level
PSU
site
uses
a
theme
called
PDX
Home.
Most
academic
and
administrative
sites
use
a
theme
called
PDX
Primary.
Some
research
and
affiliated
sites
use
a
theme
called
PDX
Secondary.
About
this
document
This
document
covers
the
Content
Manger
role
for
sites
that
use
the
PDX
Primary
theme.

Administrative
menu
The
Drupal
administrative
menu
stretches
across
the
top
of
each
screen,
so
these
links
are
always
close
at
hand.
The
links
in
the
top
two
rows
are
shortcuts
to
frequently
needed
screens.
The
links
in
the
bottom
row
act
as
a
breadcrumb
trail,
helping
you
keep
track
of
where
you
are
in
the
Drupal
interface.
The
home
icon
takes
you
to
the
site
home
page.
The
Dashboard
and
Content
links
take
you
to
the
two
main
administrative
screens.
The
PDX
Help
link
leads
you
to
a
screen
where
you
can
become
familiar
with
Drupal
terminology.
The
Add
Page
and
Add
Media
links
offer
two
quick
ways
to
create
or
upload
new
content.
The
Contact
Form
link
takes
you
to
the
screen
for
managing
the
site’s
built-‐in
contact
form.
The
first
two
links
in
the
bottom
row—PSU,
which
leads
to
www.pdx.edu,
and
HOME,
which
leads
to
the
site
home
page—are
constant.
Any
further
links
appear
and
change
depending
on
your
location
in
the
site
or
administrative
interface
at
a
given
time.
On
the
right
side
of
the
administrative
menu,
two
pairs
of
links
take
you
to
your
user
account
or
log
you
out
of
the
site.

it’s
best
to

This
makes
selecting

for
example,
easier
and
more
reliable
than
using
click

changes
the

only.
Selecting
the

option
disables
the
WYSIWYG
editor
and
causes
the
contents
to
be
displayed
as-‐
is,
with
HTML
tags
and
all.
This
setting
is
not
recommended.
The
Menu
Settings
tab
contains
all
the
settings
for
including
the
page
in
the
site
menu.
Start
by
checking
off
the
Provide
a
menu
link
checkbox.
The
Menu
link
title
field
is
pre-‐populated
with
the
same
text
as
the
page
title.
This
is
the
text
that
site
visitors
click
to
see
the
page
content.
You
can
leave
the
text
as-‐is
or
change
it.
The
contents
of
the
Description
field
provide
the
“tool
tip”
text
that
visitors
see
when
they
hover
over
the
menu
item
with
their
mouse.
One
common
strategy
is
to
match
the
contents
of
this
field
to
the
Menu
link
title
field,
but
the
two
can
differ
and
you
can
leave
this
field
blank.
Whatever
strategy
you
employ,
try
to
be
consistent
throughout
your
site.
Use
the
Parent
item
drop-‐down
to
select
the
existing
menu
item
under
which
this
page
should
appear.
If
it’s
a
top-‐level
page,
select
the
Main
menu
as
the
parent.
Use
the
Weight
drop-‐down
to
assign
a
hierarchy
for
this
page
among
other
pages
in
the
same
section
of
the
menu.
Weights
range
from
-‐50
to
+50,
with
smaller
numbers
having
less
weight
and
bigger
numbers
having
more
weight.
In
other
words,
an
item
with
weight
-‐10
appears
ahead
of
or
above
an
item
with
weight
+10.

The
Revision
information
tab
contains
the
settings
for
controlling
the
current
version
of
the
page.
By
default,
the
Create
new
revision
setting
is
turned
on
so
that
as
you
make
and
save
changes,
each
saved
version
is
available
to
revert
to
if
needed.
Use
the
Revision
log
message
field
to
make
notes
for
yourself
and
other
content
managers
about
the
changes
you’ve
made.
When
you’re
looking
at
a
list
of
previous
versions,
these
notes
help
ensure
you
choose
the
correct
version
to
revert
to.
The
URL
path
settings
tab
contains
the
settings
for
the
aliased
page
URL.
By
default,
the
Automatic
alias
setting
is
turned
on
so
that
the
alias
matches
the
words
in
the
page
title
field.
For
example,
a
page
titled
“How
to
Apply”
has
an
alias
of
“how-‐to-‐
apply.”
The
page’s
complete
URL
reads
www.pdx.edu/{sitename}/how-‐to-‐apply.
While
you
can
uncheck
the
Automatic
alias
setting
and
use
the
URL
alias
field
to
identify
an
alternative
alias
for
the
page,
be
very
conservative
with
this
option.
The
more
aliases
a
page
has,
the
less
weight
it
has
in
search
results.
It’s
also
best
practice
to
save
the
page
once
with
the
default
Automatic
alias
so
that
the
standard
alias
is
created.
If
you
identify
an
alternative
in
a
separate
save
cycle,
the
original
and
new
aliases
coexist.
15
The
Authoring
information
tab
identifies
the
page
author
and
date
of
creation.
The
info
is
automatically
generated
by
the
system,
so
you
won’t
have
do
enter
anything
here.
The
Publishing
options
tab
contains
the
publication
settings
for
the
page.
By
default,
a
page
is
published
(available
to
the
public)
when
it
is
created.
When
you
uncheck
the
Published
check
box,
the
page
is
not
available
to
the
public
and
any
menu
settings
do
not
take
effect.
A
site
visitor
with
the

sees
the
message
“Access
Denied.
You
are
not
authorized
to
access
this
page.”
Check
the
Promoted

check
box
to
create
an

feed
for
the

The

Finish

Editing
existing
pages
Editing
an
existing
page
is
a
lot
like
creating
a
new
one.
The
first
step
is
to
locate
the
page.
To
do
this,
use
the
site
menu,
the
sitemap
or
the
ever-‐useful
Content
screen.
Once
you
land
on
the
page
to
be
edited,
notice
the
View
and
Edit
(and
possibly
Revisions)
tabs
just
below
the
page
header.
The
View
tab
is
active.
Click
the
Edit
tab.
The
edit
page
form
matches
the
create
page
form
except
that
it’s
already
populated
with
content
and
configuration
settings.
See
the
Creating
new
pages
section
above
for
details
about
each
field.
After
making
changes,
be
sure
to
click
the
Save
button.
This
saves
the
page
and
redraws
it
with
the
View
tab
active.
Alternatively,
to
delete
the
page,
scroll
to
the
bottom
of
the
form
and
click
the
Delete
button.
A
new
screen
appears
where
you
confirm
or
cancel
the
deletion.
Use
the
Revisions
tab
(present
on
any
page
that
has
been
changed
since
it
was
first
created)
to
view
and
revert
to
(or
delete)
previous
versions
of
the
page
as
needed.

Content
Type:
Link
Block
A
link
block
is
a
list
of
links
contained
in
a
block.
Quick
Links
are
an
example
of
a
link
block.
A
link
block
is
made
up
of
two
pieces—the
list
of
links
and
the
block
that
contains
the
list—each
managed
separately.
Once
a
link
block
is
created
and
the
block
placed
in
the
site,
you
can
update
the
list
of
links
without
impacting
the
placement
of
the
block.
Managing
blocks
is
the
work
of
site
managers
but
content
managers
can
edit
the
list
of
links.
Creating
new
link
blocks
Although
it
is
possible
for
you
(as
a
content
manager)
to
create
a
link
block,
you
won't
be
able
to
create
and
place
the
block
container
that
make
the
links
visible
to
site
visitors.
Thus,
creating
link
blocks
is
a
task
best
left
to
a
site
manager.
Editing
existing
link
blocks
The
first
step
is
to
locate
the
link
block.
To
do
this,
visit
the
ever-‐useful
Content
screen
and
click
the
Type
column
to
sort
by
content
type.
Select
the
appropriate
link
block
title
from
the
list.
Once
you
land
on
the
link
block
to
be
edited,
notice
the
View
and
Edit
(and
possibly
Revisions)
tabs
just
below
the
link
block
title.
The
View
tab
is
active.
Click
the
Edit
tab.
18
Each
link
block
has
a
title.
The
contents
of
the
Title
field
display
as
a
heading
for
the
block.
In
content
lists
and
block
administration
screens,
link
blocks
are
listed
by
their
titles.
Each
link
in
a
link
block
has
a
title
and
URL.
The
title
is
what
site
visitors
click
to
get
to
the
URL
destination.
The
URL
field
takes
absolute
(http://www.pdx.edu)
or
relative
(/home)
URLs.
Absolute
URLs
are
preferred.
Link
blocks
can
contain
any
number
of
links.
Add
a
link
by
completing
the
Title
and
URL
fields.
To
add
additional
links,
click
the
Add
another
item
button.
To
order
the
links,
click
and
drag
the
Drag
to
re-‐order
icon
to
the
left
of
each
link
entry.
Alternatively,
click
the
Show
row
weights
link
to
use
numbers
to
order
the
links.
Row
weights
range
from
-‐50
to
+50,
with
smaller
numbers
having
less
weight
and
bigger
numbers
having
more
weight.
In
other
words,
an
item
with
weight
-‐10
appears
ahead
of
or
above
an
item
with
weight
+10.
19
The
Revision
information
tab
contains
the
settings
for
controlling
the
current

is
turned
on
so
that
as
you
make
and
save
changes,
each

managers
about
the
changes
you’ve
made.
When
you’re
looking

these
notes
help
ensure
you
choose
the
correct
version
to
revert
to.
The
URL
path
settings
tab
contains
the
settings
for
an
aliased
link
block
URL.
Since
site
visitors
never
see
a
link
block
except
in
the
context
of
a
page,
an
alias
is
not
necessary.
20
The
Authoring
information
tab
identifies
the
link
block
author
and
date
of
creation.
The

is
automatically
generated
by

so
you
won’t
have

when
it
is
created
and
the
block
is
placed
in
the
site.
When
you
uncheck
the
Published
check
box,
the
link
block
is
not
available
to
the

An
unpublished
link
block
that
is
placed
in
the
site
displays
an
error
message.
The
Promoted

check
box
creates
an
RSS
feed
for
the
link
block;
however
it
does
not
position
the
block
on
the
home
page.
(Positioning
link
blocks
is
a
task
for
site
managers.)
The
Sticky

top
of
lists
option
is
not
in
use
at
this
time.
Click
the
Preview
button
for
a
preliminary
view
of
the

block.
The
list
appears
in
a
new
screen,
though
it
isn’t
formatted
exactly
as
it
would
be
in
a
page.
Nevertheless,
the
preview
is
adequate
for
testing
the
links.
Below
the
preview,
you
can
continue
editing
the
link
list.
After
making
changes,
be
sure
to
click
the
Save
button.
This
saves
the

block
and
redraws
it
with
the

active.
Alternatively,
to
delete
the

block,
click
the
Delete

content
type
works
in
conjunction
with
a
widget
to
display
as
many
as
three
slides
on
the

front
slide.
The
slide
isn’t
formatted
exactly
as
it
would
be
in
a
page.
Nevertheless,
the
preview
is
adequate
for
testing
the
link
and
text
placement
in
the
overlay.
Below
the
preview,
you
can
continue
editing
the
front
slide.
After
making
changes,
be
sure
to
click
the
Save
button.
This
saves
the
front
slide
and
redraws
it
with
the
View
tab
active.
Editing
existing
front
slides
Editing
an
existing
front
page
is
a
lot
like
creating
a
new
one.
The
first
step
is
to
locate
the
front
slide.
To
do
this,
visit
the
ever-‐useful
Content
screen
and
click
the
Type
column
to
sort
by
content
type.
Select
the
appropriate
front
slide
title
from
the
list.
Once
you
land
on
the
front
slide
to
be
edited,
notice
the
View,
Edit,
and
Nodequeue
(and
possibly
Revisions)
tabs
just
below
the
front
slide
title.
The
View
tab
is
active.
Click
the
Edit
tab.
The
edit
front
slide
form
matches
the
create
front
slide
form
except
that
it’s
already
populated
with
content
and
configuration
settings.
See
the
Creating
new
front
slides
section
above
for
details
about
each
field.
After
making
changes,
be
sure
to
click
the
Save
button.
Alternatively,
to
delete
the
front
slide,
click
the
Delete
button.
A
new
screen
appears
where
you
confirm
or
cancel
the
deletion.
Use
the
Revisions
tab
(present
on
any
front
slide
that
has
been
changed
since
it
was
first
created)
to
view
and
revert
to
(or
delete)
previous
versions
of
the
front
slide
as
needed.

The
Nodequeue
tab
provides
the
essential
on/off
switch
for
the
front
slide
widget.
It
lists
the
templates
that
contain
elements
that
can
be
queued.
In
our
case,
that
template
is
the
Front
Page
Slider,
which
can
contain
as
many
as
three
front
slides
(Max
nodes).
The
In
Queue
column
identifies
how
many
slides
have
been
prepared
and
added
to
the
widget.
Under
the
Operations
heading,
click
the
Remove
from
queue
link
to
turn
off
the
widget.
Alternatively,
click
the
Add
to
queue
link
to
turn
on
the
widget.
Click
the
Front
Page
Slider
link
to
go
to
the
Subqueue
‘Front
Page
Slider’
screen.
This
screen
lists
current
slides
in
the
queue.
You
can
also
get
to
Subqueue
‘Front
Page
Slider’
screen
when
the
View
tab
is
active
by
clicking
the
Edit
Slide
Order
link
that
overlays
the
front
slide
image.
When
you’ve
created
a
new
front
slide
and
need
to
add
it
to
the
queue,
copy
the
front
slide
title
while
in
the
View
mode,
then
click
Edit
Slide
Order
link.
Paste
the
title
copy
into
the
field
that
reads
“Enter
the
title
of
a
node
to
add
it
to
the
queue”
and
click
the
Add
content
button.
Use
the
Drag
to
re-‐order
icons
next
to
each
title
or
click
the
Reverse
or
Shuffle
buttons
to
put
the
slides
in
the
desired
order.
Save
the
changes.
One
word
of
caution
here:
When
the
widget
contains
three
slides
(its
maximum
capacity)
and
you’re
ready
to
replace
one
of
the
slides
with
a
new
one,
adjust
the
order
so
that
the
slide
to
be
replaced
is
at
the
top
of
the
list
prior
to
entering
the
name
of
the
new
slide
and
clicking
the
Add
content
button.
The
top
slide
is
always
the
one
being
replaced.
Alternatively,
remove
(use
the
Remove
link)
one
of
the
existing
slides
before
adding
a
new
one.

button
to
return
to
the
Media
screen.
With
one
or
more

selected,
click
the
Delete
button
[5]
to

or
more
file
selected,
click
the

28
To
upload
additional
files,
click
the
Add
File
button
[3].
When
the
overlay
appears,
choose
the
Upload
tab
to
locate
and
upload
a
file
from
your
hard
drive
or
network
space,
or
the
Web
tab
to
identify
a
file
in
from
a
provider
website
(i.e.,
Flickr,
YouTube)
for
inclusion
in
your
site.
To
use
the
Upload
tab,
select
a
file
from
your
computer
and
drag
it
into
the
designated
space
or
click
the
Add
files
link
to
open
a
file
window
on
your
computer.
Once
the
file
appears
in
the
block,
select
a
media
folder
to
put
the
file
into
and
enter
any
tags
you
want
associated
with
the
file.
Click
the
Start
upload
button.
This
interface
allows
you
to
upload
more
than
one
file
at
a
time,
but
all
files
go
into
the
same
media
folder
and
get
the
same
tags.
In
other
words,
if
you’d
like
to
upload
two
files
to
the
Media
Root
folder
but
add
different
tags
for
each
file,
you’ll
want
to
upload
one
file
with
the
appropriate
tags,
then
open
this
screen
again
and
upload
the
second
file
with
its
tags.
To
use
the
Web
tab,
enter
a
URL
or
the
embed
code
for
an
image
or
movie
file
from
the
provider
website.
(Supported
providers
are
listed.
We
hope
to
add
additional
providers
in
the
future.)
Select
a
media
folder
to
put
the
file
into
and
enter
any
tags
you
want
associated
with
the
file.
Click
the
Submit
button.
This
places
a
virtual
copy
of
the
file
in
your
media
collection
so
that
you
can
embed
it
in
more
than
one
place.
Any
time
you
insert
the
file
into
a
page,
the
reference
points
to
the
file
on
the
provider
website
rather
than
your
media
collection.
Moved
or
deleted
files
on
the
provider
site
result
in
broken
images
in
your
site
pages.

To
view
a
subset
of
