ARCHIVE: Modules

Modules are plugins that extend Drupal's core functionality. Enable modules by selecting the Enabled checkboxes below and clicking the Save configuration button. Once a module is enabled, new permissions may be available. To reduce server load, modules with their Throttle checkbox selected are temporarily disabled when your site becomes extremely busy. (Note that the Throttle checkbox is only available if the Throttle module is enabled.) The auto-throttle functionality must be enabled on the throttle configuration page after having enabled the throttle module.

It is important that update.php is run every time a module is updated to a newer version.

You can find all administration tasks belonging to a particular module on the administration by module page.

To extend the functionality of your site, a number of contributed modules are available.

See the available updates page for information on installed modules and themes with new versions released.
