The Search module includes a block, which can be enabled and configured on the <a href=":blocks">Block layout page</a>, if you have the Block module installed; the default block title is Search, and it is the Search form block in the Forms category, if you wish to add another instance. The block is available to users with the <a href=":search_permission">Use search</a> permission, and it performs a search using the configured default search page.

Users with <a href=":search_permission">Use search</a> permission can use the Search block and <a href=":search">Search page</a>. Users with the <a href=":node_permission">View published content</a> permission can use configured search pages of type <em>Content</em> to search for content containing exact keywords; in addition, users with <a href=":search_permission">Use advanced search</a> permission can use more complex search filtering. Users with the <a href=":user_permission">View user information</a> permission can use configured search pages of type <em>Users</em> to search for active users containing the keyword anywhere in the username, and users with the <a href=":user_permission">Administer users</a> permission can search for active and blocked users, by email address or username keyword.

Extending the Search module
Translated string (German)
Source string (Built-in English)
By default, the Search module only supports exact keyword matching in content searches. You can modify this behavior by installing a language-specific stemming module for your language (such as <a href=":porterstemmer_url">Porter Stemmer</a> for American English), which allows words such as walk, walking, and walked to be matched in the Search module. Another approach is to use a third-party search technology with stemming or partial word matching features built in, such as <a href=":solr_url">Apache Solr</a> or <a href=":sphinx_url">Sphinx</a>. There are also contributed modules that provide additional search pages. These and other <a href=":contrib-search">search-related contributed modules</a> can be downloaded by visiting Drupal.org.

Configuring user roles
Translated string (German)
Source string (Built-in English)
<em>Roles</em> are used to group and classify users; each user can be assigned one or more roles. Typically there are two pre-defined roles: <em>Anonymous user</em> (users that are not logged in), and <em>Authenticated user</em> (users that are registered and logged in). Depending on how your site was set up, an <em>Administrator</em> role may also be available: users with this role will automatically be assigned any new permissions whenever a module is installed. You can create additional roles on the <a href=":roles">Roles administration page</a>.

Setting permissions
Translated string (German)
Source string (Built-in English)
After creating roles, you can set permissions for each role on the <a href=":permissions_user">Permissions page</a>. Granting a permission allows users who have been assigned a particular role to perform an action on the site, such as viewing content, editing or creating a particular type of content, administering settings for a particular module, or using a particular function of the site (such as search).

Other permissions pages
Translated string (German)
Source string (Built-in English)
The main Permissions page can be overwhelming, so each module that defines permissions has its own page for setting them. There are links to these pages on the <a href=":modules">Extend page</a>. When editing a content type, vocabulary, etc., there is also a Manage permissions tab for permissions related to that configuration.

The <a href=":accounts">Account settings page</a> allows you to manage settings for the displayed name of the Anonymous user role, personal contact forms, user registration settings, and account cancellation settings. On this page you can also manage settings for account personalization, and adapt the text for the email messages that users receive when they register or request a password recovery. You may also set which role is automatically assigned new permissions whenever a module is installed (the Administrator role).

Managing user account fields

Because User accounts are an entity type, you can extend them by adding fields through the Manage fields tab on the <a href=":accounts">Account settings page</a>. By adding fields for e.g., a picture, a biography, or address, you can a create a custom profile for the users of the website. For background information on entities and fields, see the <a href=":field_help">Field module help page</a>.
