-Place downloaded and custom modules that extend your site functionality beyond
-Drupal core in this directory to ensure clean separation from core modules and
-to facilitate safe, self-contained code updates. Contributed modules from the
-Drupal community may be downloaded at http://drupal.org/project/modules.
-
-It is safe to organize modules into subdirectories, such as "contrib" for
-contributed modules, and "custom" for custom modules. Note that if you move a
-module to a subdirectory after it has been enabled, you may need to clear the
-Drupal cache so that it can be found.
-
-In multisite configuration, modules found in this directory are available to
-all sites. In addition to this directory, shared common modules may also be kept
-in the sites/all/modules directory and will take precedence over modules in this
-directory. Alternatively, the sites/your_site_name/modules directory pattern may
-be used to restrict modules to a specific site instance.
-
-Refer to the "Developing for Drupal" section of the README.txt in the Drupal
-root directory for further information on extending Drupal with custom modules.
