Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I may have caused this bug, but it's worth capturing.
Instead of applying the patch to reset the default admin, a used urlalias to set "control_panel == admin."
I also set control_panel to create subdirectories.
The glitch occured in the menu module (screenshot attached), giving my multiple instances of the "administration" menu item.
This was running 4.6.0 on Drupal 4.6.3 from the directory: ./modules/control_panel

dreed47 commentedI've tried to recreate this and I could not. If anything it seems like it may be an issue with either the path module or maybe the menu module. I've not really played with the path module much. Does it let you redirect an exisintg path or is it only for defining new paths and pointing them back to an exisintg path?
Comment #2
agentrickardIt lets you create path aliases for existing paths.
I'm fairly sure this was user error. You might recreate it by enabling the "path" module and mapping "control_panel" to "admin."
Really, I would just add a note to the INSTALL.txt warning against doing so.

dreed47 commentedThat's what I did. I installed the path module and mapped control_panel to admin and I didn't see the issue you referenced. If this is a reproducable problem then I'm more than happy to make a note in the readme or better yet fix it in the control panel module or at the very least submit a bug for either the path module or the menu module if need be.

agentrickardI'd chalk this up to user error and let it go.
