Still on Drupal 7? Security support for Drupal 7 ended on 5 January 2025. Please visit our Drupal 7 End of Life resources page to review all of your options.
I've read that Drupal is supposed to be very fast, but it takes forever for me to navigate from page to page or node to node. I know it's not an image issue because my images are compressed, and it my site is still slow to retrieve and render my pages when I am on nodes that are almost entirely text based (such as when I am creating content or navigating around the administration menus)
I'm rebuilding a site and Drupal is configured for the IP at the new host:
http://ip_address/~username/
When I get the Drupal version done, I'll switch the configuration to the domain name and change the DNS to the Drupal site. At this point, I'd like to enable clean URL's. Is there a possibility of broken links or problems? I just want to make sure I'm doing this right so we make a smooth transition. TIA.
I "searched" for some answers to this here, but I'm not enough of a code-head to understand most of it. Can anyone tell me, in layman's terms, why "search" never works on my site, and how I can fix it? I'm using the latest version of Drupal.
I noticed that someone had tried to use "administrator" as a userid when they were signing up to one of my websites, so I decided to test out the user-name access restriction (found under administer -> users -> configure), and added a deny rule for "admin%".
The problem is ... this includes my admin signin for "admin", so now I am unable to log into the administration modules of the website.
