Hello,

I seems to made a huge mistake. I installed all new modules in the directory /modules instead of /sites/all/modules.

I learned about this today itself while seeing the video Dynamic block installation.

This will create problems to me when I upgrade my drupal of even my modules.

Please advice how to shift the modules. I understand that simply copying will not do and un-installing and re-installing will not be advisable on a production site.

Need urgent HELP

Back up your site first!

1) Put your site into maintenance mode
2) Go to modules page and disable every module that isn't part of drupal core
3) Move module folders from /modules to /sites/all/modules
4) Go to modules page and enable them again
5) turn off maintenance mode

FYI, disabling the modules will not remove any data. Disabling and uninstalling are to different things.
