Description

After a little discussion, and after having changed the link text for Advanced Help on occasion because I didn't want my customers to get scared away by anything "Advanced" sounding, could I request that the menu link text for Advanced Help be changed to Expanded Help, or perhaps More Help?

The link text is end-user facing, and they don't always think of themselves as "advanced."

Thanks!

Here is a patch that alters the navigation menu link text to display "Extended help".

While making this patch, I noticed that the Advanced Help was not displaying it's link on the admin/by-module page. This patch corrects that as well.

There is a module for that™

I think we should leave it as advanced help. If you want to change the name you can use the module suggested above. Also not sure if should appear in admin/by-module page either, because there really isn't an administration portion to this module.

Anyone have any thoughts before I make a new release?

I worked a bit with CrashTest on this; I think 'Extended help' is a bit more friendly, and I actually agree with this in general, though I'm not 100% convinced either way yet because I dunno how it will really impact existing sites.
