I installed a Drupal project which was developed not by me.
How could I see the project result? I mean the actual site?
Some checks you can do like.
Visit on front page via click on home in menu or in url localhost/fivedaydiscovery
To check what types of content types are created go to admin>structure>content types
To get all data go to admin>content
To create data for specific content typpe go to admin>content>Add content
To check menu links go to structure>menus and check links in specific menu.
To check dynamic pages and blocks go to structure>views and structure>blocks .
Overall if it has /sitemap.xml then you can check pages and their backend functionality.

My question is simple, let's say there is a website created by WordPress with its URL:cuaauc.com, and it has so many sub-pages, including one named cuaauc.com/contact/. I would like to redirect the cuaauc.com/contact/ to other content from my external domain test.com. I understand how to direct cuaauc.com to test.com, but I am not sure how to do the subpage situation.
Please give me some advice, or tell me if this is impossible to work out.
If you just what to set the link for the navigation item in your wordpress site (so that the button 'contact' directs to an external page), you can do this in wordpress backend under Design -> Menus and make the menu item an individual link and set the url.
You can also make a page-template (page-yourpage.php) and set the redirecting in your php file or include (php include or via iframe) the content of your target contact page.
There are also more ways to achieve this.
If you like you can write a little bit more about what you are exactly trying to achieve and why you want to have the contact page being seperated. This way the we can give you better help and can decide which method suits your needs best.
You can use a plugin called Redirection.
After Install an Activate plugin, go to Tools > Redirection
If you are using first time this plugin, you may have to set up this plugin by simply a few clicks.
Then you can add new Redirections rule by click on Add New button.
I have update a page in my wordpress site using web admin back end, but what I see is that even if I update a page, it does not get updated online. Moreover, some of the content of the page which I see online /live are not actually texted in the area where we put the content.
On the right side navigator, in the page attribute area Parent has been set to No Parent, template --> Home Page.
Can you please let me know what could be the possible reason why the live content of the page is different from what I can see in the actual text area through web admin panel?
Also updating a page does not reflects on the page as well for that particular page.
First make sure you are editing the right page. Click in the frontend adminbar on edit instead of navigating in the backend through the pages list.
Secondly it can be any caching related issue. Check out if there are any plugins or settings for this.
Areas that are on the page but not editable via the content can be widgets or any kind of theme builder stuff. Check in the backend design->widgets.
The page hierarchy (parent: no parent) can be differ from the actually website navigation. Check out design->menus. It is possible to build other hierarchies in the menus.
Ok, here is the thing I have already added the categories to the pages (with the help of a plug-in, it's called Add category to pages) and so now I want to change the URL to display the categories (that is to say I want my pages to have this estructure: mysite.com/%categories%/%page_name% right now it has his structure: mysite.com/%page_name%), I have tried to google it but I can't find a straight answer. So if anyone has some resources (tutorials, articles) or some idea (if it's not to much to ask with code examples) on how to achieve this it would be fantastic. (And believe me, I'm asking as my last resource)
you can do it easily with "Page Parent" option available in WordPress.
Steps To create a subpage
Go to Administration > Pages > Add New screen.
In the right menu, click the “Page Parent/No Parent” drop-down/page attribute widget. The drop-down menu contains a list of all the Pages already created for your website.
Select the appropriate parent page from the drop-down menu to make the current Page a child Page.
Add content to the subpage.
Click Publish when ready.
Output - https://example.com/asia/india/
More Info. - Wordpress Subpage Permalink
well you can do this for categories and products from permalink setting, but if you want to manipulate the page url according to yourself then you need to create an blank page with the prescribed name whichever you want to insert, i.e, if you want to insert amazon within the url then create an url with name of amazon, and put the other url's under this parent page.
This way your url will look like
http://example.com/amazon/page_name
Unable to post as comment so directly posting it in an answer, in WordPress you can have custom URL. After you logged I'm as admin under dashboard you have general settings where you can put custom URL's like http://example.com/%caregory%/page_name

I don't know if you tried this but after you login as admin, under Dashboard>>Settings>>Permalinks>>Custom Structure.
Let me know if you have already tried that.
I inherited a implementation of Gallery2 embedded in a Drupal site. I need to change the url of the page this is on from /gallery to /somethingelse.
Drupal is not something I am very familiar with, but I've done some stuff here and there with it years ago.
The /gallery page is not listed anywhere in the admin interface and the content is living in page-gallery.tpl.php.
A 301 redirect is going to be necessary (which I do know how to do), but that isn't the solution I'm looking for obviously (just to avoid getting that answer). Is there any simple way to change this url?
First you will have to understand how drupal handle URLs & generate a page based on it. There are several way to have a URL in drupal, where you can navigate from somewhere.
Usually we make page(add content) of some content type, which you create before with all the required fields. Drupal give serial node number to all newly created page, so to have your own custom URL, you will need to use PATHAUTO module, which will create URL based on title of the page, though you can modify at time of creating page.
We create listings of some things e.g. images for gallery by help of VIEWS & we can create page for the listing. We get to give URL for the page, which you can edit any time.
We declare URLs in our custom module under hook_menu(). Other contributed module also do the same & that's why you get some pages when you enable the module.
Apart from page content, drupal have block system. A block can contains content, image, links etc & display of it can be set to all pages as well as any specific page. So there is no limitation for you to make your page with the URL which you want if you are using PATHAUTO module. If you have listing from views or code which is generating page, then you can always go there & change.
I am using Dotnetnuke( version 6). I want to add sitemap(which only shows the hyperlinks of pages) on my website. I have gone through number of free sitemap modules on the internet Like
http://www.derektrauger.com/Products/DotNetNukeModules/DNNSiteMapModule.aspx
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/12645/DotNetNuke-SiteMap
all of them works fine and shows the link on first level but they does not show the page link of hidden pages and pages within pages. I have given full permission and sitemap link(steMap.aspx) also show hidden page.
how can i resolve this issue?
Is there any other free sitemap module which can resolve this issue?
Regards and Thnakx
How come you are not using the core sitemap?
e.g. www.yourdomain.com/sitemap.aspx
It should print out all pages in your site.
Mine currently prints out all pages http://www.ventrian.com/sitemap.aspx, even ones that hidden by "show in menu" set to false http://www.ventrian.com/Home/WhereAreThey.aspx

Just to update this thread, I actually use this for sitemaps now:
http://searchenginesitemaps.codeplex.com/
It is an open source sitemap for DotNetNuke. http://www.ventrian.com/SearchEngineSitemap.aspx
It allows for module developers to write their own providers to include their specific date in the sitemap (e.g. galleries, articles, etc).
