|
The purpose of this project is to tackle the hardships faced by web site administrators who are either new to Drupal, or to web technologies.
With the increasing number of website developers using Drupal as their underlying management system, new users spend hard time at Drupal's help methodology. By enabling users to get inline help, with reference to in-depth topics, Drupal-centric terminology help using tooltips, potentially leading users from error or warning messages into the contextual documentation and a whole new experience browsing help topics in administration, is a part of the motive for usability improvements for administrators. Separate help file for modules, ease of maintenance of help by other contributors, and help registry server are some of the support pillars in this proposal, for the Drupal module developers. |
