Hi - I'm new to drupal - im taking over a site that was built in drupal and am working on understanding it compared to html and dreamweaver. i have a couple questions that i need to find out immediately and would really appreciate your help.
the site is missguidedmagazine.com, there is a menu bar link for /scene/events (i think the designer has it as scene/activities/events) that is redirecting to /vices.
i'm trying to figure out how to get that link to go to the right page, but i can't find the page! i've done a google search for the site (site:www.missguidedmagazine.com and www.../taxonomy and www.taxonomy/term/) since i dont know how to go to the server through drupal like i can on dreamweaver - and i can't find a page that ever was labeled events, but the owner is pretty sure the link at one time did work. is there a way to fix this through drupal? or do i need to go to the server?
i think this is going to be a challenge and though i will attempt to figure it all out on my own, i will likely be using you all to help me with immediate issues if that's acceptable practice - thanks in advance for your help!!!
ps im not sure which version of drupal the site is actually in and i'm not sure how to find that

In the future please don't generate multiple posts for the same question. The above is a duplicate of: http://drupal.org/node/2000010
If the intention was to place the post in the correct forum after a submission to an incorrect forum: edit the original post where you can move it.
according to http://missguidedmagazine.com/CHANGELOG.txt you are using drupal 7.22 which should be verified by inspecting admin/reports/status
it sounds like events was intended to be a list of content. Thus, there won't be a page. It was likely a view. check admin/structure/views for the view you want to link to. Then edit the menu item in question and set it to the view required.
- ok -
first after i posted to the gen discussion forum, i noticed it says Please don't add support questions to this forum - and noticed that there isn't much "recent" activity, so that is why i re posted in this forum - my apologies, i didn't want to not get an answer -
thank you for showing me how to find the drupal version, i appreciate that
so when i'm logged in as admin, i see /structure, but not /views on the very top of the page...
am i looking in the wrong place? it has blocks, contact form, types.... but not views
thank you for your guidance on this -

check administer -> modules
is views listed?
if so, is the views_ui module disabled?
if so, enable it.
then check.
getting there
thank you for that!
i have gotten to the "block" named "the scene"
i can't figure out the sub links under that though
so far i'm not able to find the page or "view" that should connect to the menu link /scene/events......
it's like im walking in a tunnel in here!!!
i know we're close - but do you mind just taking a few more minutes to help me resolve this issue??
thanks so very much

all I can tell you at this point is to map out what is there as a reference. Then if the view is missing that you need, you will have to create one.
will do
thanks for your time and your expertise
i will try to figure it out from here
i'm assuming if i can find which block has the rest of the /scene links, i'll be on the right block... if not, i may have to go back to the previous website designer (which i would HATE to have to do!)
hmmmm
solution
ok so i figured it out - finally.
for anyone else needing to figure this out:
i went to /admin/configuration/url aliases and all the "pages" or "views" are there listed out with their /term/number
but that had the wrong term/179 that should have been /term/109
soooo
to find the right one, i had to go to www.website.com/taxonomy/term/1, www.website.com/taxonomy/term/2, www.website.com/taxonomy/term/3, www.website.com/taxonomy/term/4, etc until i found the right one
im assuming there is an easier way, but yep, that's how i fixed the menu link
