A block is used to represent a particular information in an area other than the main content, primary or secondary menus, and breadcrumbs. A menu is a collection of links which is used to navigate between different web-pages and sections of a website. The new menus are created inside the built-in menus by default. But the Drupal developers can design custom menus also.
- User permissions – Users are assigned to several roles and user permissions grant them the pre-defined permissions.
- Themes and templates – Theme is the top layer of Drupal architecture which is comprised primarily of XHTML and CSS with mixed PHP variables, to direct the way of content. Each theme in Drupal is included with a set of functions that can be used for overriding standard built-in functions in the module to give complete control of how a module generates its markup at the time of output. A theme can have one or more templates depending on the website design and its ability to handle complexity.
