Navigate is a quickly deployable, highly customizable and reasonably sexy navigation tool for Drupal. Navigate bar consists of widgets like menu search, collapsible menus and favorites, and can be customized for individual users or user roles. Navigate has been tested with many themes, and can be themed to match the look of any site.

You need Navigate if you:

  • Want to quickly set up navigation and shortcuts for site editors and administrators
  • Aren't sure where to find everything in Drupal
  • Want to quickly navigate through through common Drupal tasks
  • Don't want to clutter up a theme with administration tools
  • Want to make using Drupal a pleasure for those who are unfamiliar with its quirks

Once you install Navigate, a Search and Favorites widget will be added to your widget set for you. From there, you can customize your widget set as much as you'd like. Some of the things you can do:

  • Add a widget to search menu items, and another to search content. Or, add one to search both!
  • Add a Favorites widget, and create a set of favorites to commonly visited pages. Then, export it to import into other installations.
  • Load any menu or sub-menu in a state-saved collapsible tree
  • Set a different widget set for individual users or user roles.
  • Through permissions, allow some users to customize their widget sets while others remain static
  • Use keyboard shortcuts to toggle Navigate visibility or start a search
  • Rearrange and rename widgets

Navigate mixes well with other administration tools, such as Administration Menu and Teleport.
