How do I move module folders that I have enabled in Drupal?
I mistakenly put all my contributed modules in the \modules folder, which is where all the core modules reside. I would like them to go under \sites\all\modules\contrib. I tried simply moving the folders, but that caused a lot of problems until I moved all the folders back.
How do I move these module folders and tell Drupal where their new home is?

after you move the folders make sure to run update.php which will parse the folders again and restore their path in the system table of the database
else, move them and manually update the paths in the system table for the modules that are being moved.
thanks! that really helped,
