Deprecated - Usability feedback

Breadcrumbs are a hierarchal paradigm. Drupal is not at all hierarchal (though book and taxonomy try to impose some hierarchy).

So i recommend to turn breadcrumbs off.
1) They never make intuitive sense to users. Why, right now, at the top of this page, it says "Home » content » create content". In my mind I am in "Home >> Forum >> Usability feedback >> New entry".

2) From page to page as you do stuff, the associated breadcrumbs change wildly and bear little resemblance to what you are doing or where you have been.

Looking to better stay connected to the goings on at the Drupal site. I can't seem to find a way to subscribe to be alerted via email of changes to forum(s). Or even an RSS feed. I have to go fish instead. Surely I'm overlooking something here.

I recently deployed a site for the West Washington Park Neighborhood Assciation in Denver and one of the included features was a calendar built using the Event module. One of the pieces of feedback I got was that the link in the calendar icon wasn't very clear about how to use the link or what it was supposed to do. Users wanted to click on it, but when they did most of them (on MSWindows) got a "protocol not found" error for the "webcal://" protocol.

To solve the "usability" problem of "I don't know how to use the iCalendar feed, I created a screencast that shows how to use the event module icalendar feed in a google calendar.

This videocast is in English without any audio track - just text baloons. It doesn't really show how Drupal works, but shows how the philosophy of using open internet standards can lead to some great combinations of technologies as those protocols are put into use by other software companies. I choose Google calendar as the place to import the calendar feed because it's cross-platform and free - very accessible.

The movie file is ~2MB.

Hi,
Is there a way to use Drupal as a news content management system? I just want to be able to manage my articles and maybe my calendar but without having to change the whole layout of my page.
I want to be able to include a file, call it where i need the block and be done with it.... Unfortunately, my site is already made and it would be a total pain to have to re do it again...

Thank you

Translation for Title is missing

Module : menu.module
Line 128
from:
$data['subject'] = check_plain($item['title']);
to:
$data['subject'] = t(check_plain($item['title']));

I've been using Drupal for well over a year and one of the things that continually trips me up is the way the settings are grouped in the administrative menu.

It seems inefficient as well as counter-intuitive to have so many duplicate menu item names.

For example, when you activate the menu module, you get two menu items, both named 'menus':

1) administer > menus
2) administer > settings > menus

The same thing happens for other modules as well, e.g. users.
