Before we dive into the fun world of playing with media, we need to get some basic Drupal site-building set up to meet a few of our site needs. ---- In this lesson, we'll create a foundation for the rest of the site by setting up the following things:

  • Bio page
  • Contact form (enable, show default config, perms, add menu item)
  • Front page blog
  • Add a theme (business)

Note: This series is covering Media Module version 1.x. To learn about Media Module 2.x, check out our Using Drupal Chapter 4: Media Management series.
