A production site is the version of a website that is used by real users and is typically the final stage in the development process, after the site has been tested and is ready to be launched.
In Drupal and other content management systems, content can be either published or unpublished. Published content is content that is available to the public, while unpublished content is not visible to the public and is only accessible to users with the appropriate permissions.
It is important to note that unpublished content is not deleted or removed from the system, it is simply hidden from view. This means that you can easily change the status of unpublished content to published at any time, making it visible to the public again.
For more information, please refer to our documentation on Published and Unpublished content.
In Drupal, a region is a part of a webpage that is designated for displaying specific types of content. Regions are used to organize the layout of a webpage and to determine where different types of content will be displayed.
For example, a website might have a header region at the top of the page for displaying the site's logo and main navigation menu, a content region for displaying the main body of content, and a footer region at the bottom of the page for displaying copyright information and additional links.
In Drupal and other content management systems, a revision is a saved version of a piece of content. When you make changes to a piece of content, a new revision of the content is created. This allows you to track the changes that have been made to the content over time and to revert to an earlier version if necessary.
In Drupal, you can view and manage the revisions for a piece of content by going to the "Content" section in the administration interface and clicking on the "Revisions" tab for the content. From there, you can view a list of all the revisions for the content and compare the different versions to see what changes have been made. You can also restore an earlier revision if you need to. It is important to note that when you restore an earlier revision, any changes made in later revisions will be lost.
In Drupal and other content management systems, a role is a group of users who have similar permissions. Roles are used to manage access to different features and functions within the system.
For example, a website might have a role called "Editors" that includes users who are responsible for creating and editing content on the site. The Editors role might have permissions such as the ability to create and edit articles, moderate comments, and manage user accounts.
A stage site, also known as a staging site or test site, is a copy of a website or web application that is used for testing and development purposes. A stage site is typically separate from the production site, which is the live, public-facing version of the site.
The purpose of a stage site is to allow developers and content editors to test and make changes to a website without affecting the production site. This is useful for testing new features, making design changes, or making other types of updates to the site. Once the changes have been tested and are ready to be released, they can be deployed to the production site.
Stage sites are typically located on a separate server or hosting environment and are not accessible to the public. They are usually only accessible to developers and other authorized users.
In Drupal and other content management systems, a summary is a short summary or excerpt of a longer piece of content. Summaries are often used to give readers a preview of a piece of content and to help them decide whether they want to read more.
Summaries are often used in lists of content, such as on the homepage or in a profile page. For example, if you have a list of articles on your site, each article might be listed with a title and a summary, giving readers a brief overview of the article before they click through to read the full content.
In Drupal and other content management systems, taxonomy is the practice of classifying and organizing content using tags, categories, and other metadata. Taxonomy allows you to group related content together and to make it easier for users to find specific types of content on your site.
Drupal includes a powerful taxonomy system that allows you to create and manage vocabularies and terms. Vocabularies are groups of related terms, such as tags or categories, and terms are the specific labels that you use to classify content. For example, you might create a vocabulary called "Tags" and add terms such as "news", "sports", and "entertainment" to classify articles on your site.
You can manage taxonomy by going to the "Structure" section in the Drupal administration interface and clicking on the "Taxonomy" link. From there, you can create and manage vocabularies and terms, and you can also assign taxonomy terms to your content. This will allow you to classify and organize your content in a way that makes it easier for users to find what they are looking for.
In Drupal and other content management systems, text editors are often used for creating and editing content, such as articles, pages, and other types of content. Text editors in Drupal allow you to enter and format text, add links and images, and perform other basic formatting tasks.
For more information, please refer to our documentation on the Text paragraph.
A URL is a way to specify the address of a web page or other resource, and is used by web browsers to retrieve and display the resource. A URL consists of several parts, including a protocol (such as HTTP or HTTPS), a domain name (such as example.com), and a path (such as /path/to/resource).
A path is the part of a URL that specifies the location of a resource within a website or file system. It can refer to a directory or folder, as well as a specific file or page within that directory or folder. For example, in the URL "https://www.example.com/folder/page.html", the path is "/folder/page.html", and it specifies that the resource is a HTML file located in the "folder" directory on the website.
In general, a path is a way of specifying the location of something, whether it is a file, directory, or other resource. It can be thought of as the "address" of the resource within a larger system.
When a page title is updated or is moved within the site, the URL might change. A URL Redirect allows a link to be made between the old URL and the new URL so visitors who may have used an old link or bookmark can still find the content they are trying to find and avoid broken links.
User experience (UX) refers to a person's overall feelings and attitudes about using a particular product, system, or service. It includes the practical, experiential, affective, meaningful, and valuable aspects of human-computer interaction and product ownership. In other words, it is about how a person feels when interfacing with a device or system, and whether they find it useful, easy to use, and enjoyable.
Good user experience is important because it can make the difference between a product or service that is successful and one that is not. When a user has a positive experience with a product, they are more likely to continue using it and recommend it to others. On the other hand, a poor user experience can lead to frustration, dissatisfaction, and abandonment.
A view in Drupal is a way to browse and find content on the website. It is a predefined list of content that has been filtered and sorted in a specific way, and can be displayed as a page, block, or feed.
For example, a user might visit a Drupal site and see a view that displays a list of the most recent articles on the homepage. The user can click on any of the articles in the view to read the full content, and can also use the filters and sort criteria provided by the view to find specific content. For example, the user might use the filters to only show articles from a particular category, or might use the sort criteria to order the articles by date or popularity.
Overall, a view in Drupal is a useful tool for users to find and browse relevant content on the site. It helps to organize and present the content in a clear and structured way, and can be customized to meet the needs of different users.

A website is a collection of web pages that can be accessed via a web browser and that provide information, services or resources. A user might visit a website for many different reasons, such as to find information about a particular topic, to purchase a product or service, to communicate with others, or to access entertainment or other resources.
When a user visits a website, they typically use their web browser to navigate to the website’s address (URL) and then interact with the website’s content and features. This might involve reading text, viewing images or videos, filling out forms, or clicking on links to access other pages or resources.
Overall, a website is a tool that users can use to find and access information and resources on the internet. It is an important part of the online experience for many people, and has become an essential part of modern life for many individuals and organizations.
