When learning Drupal on 7.32, I was able to add modules and templates. On the "module list" page, there was a link for "install a new module." With 7.43, that link is not there. Is my version corrupt? It doesn't matter if I'm in Maintenance Mode or not. Or is there a new way to install modules and templates?

I'm a newbie. And frustrated. Please help.

I Updated the Drupal 7.32 to Drupal 7.43 but it was not removed the link "install a new module." from Module list page.
Maybe the issue has happened due to following reasons:

  • If you change the admin theme, So please change it to default admin theme and then check.
  • Please check if you are using any third party integartion or used contributed module that disabled the functionality.
  • when you update the site follow the stepshttps://www.drupal.org/node/2700991

Another way to install the theme and module.

  • Download the Module or theme from drupal.org.
  • Copy your downloaded module folder and paste it on sites/all/module/[Your module].
  • Copy your downloaded theme folder and paste it on sites/all/theme/[Your theme].
  • Now your module is listed on Module list and Theme is listed on appearence.
  • Then Enable the Module and theme.

Version: 7.43 » 7.x-dev
