First Steps: Please Read
Referring to pages on your site
We'll often want to refer to a specific page address (URL) on your site. But that'll differ for every site, as the domain differs for every site.
I'll write it like this example:
<your site domain>/node/add
Replace <your site domain> with your actual domain, and you're in business.
For example, if your site's domain is www.example.com (which it isn't), then you get to the URL
<your site domain>/node/add
by typing
into your browser's address field.
Referring to menu items
To send you to a specific page on your site, the manual will often ask you to click on such-and-such link in so-and-so menu. I'll write it starting with the menu's name, followed by the menu item to click, followed by additional sub-items (if any). An example:
Navigation menu » Create content » Blog entry
That tells you to go to the Navigation menu (about which much will be said later), click the item "Create content", and from the additional menu items that appear from there, click "Blog entry".
