<h2>{% trans %}Goal{% endtrans %}</h2>
<p>{% trans %}Use contextual links to access administrative tasks without navigating the administrative menu.{%
endtrans %}</p>
<h2>{% trans %}What are contextual links?{% endtrans %}</h2>
<p>{% trans %}<em>Contextual links</em> give users with the <em>Use contextual links</em> permission quick access to administrative tasks related to areas of non-administrative pages. For example, if a page on your site displays a block, the block would have a contextual link that would allow users with permission to configure the block. If the block contains a menu or a view, it would also have a contextual link for editing the menu links or the view. Clicking a contextual link takes you to the related administrative page directly, without needing to navigate through the administrative menu system.{% endtrans %}</p>
<h2>{% trans %}Steps{% endtrans %}</h2>
<ol>
<li>{% trans %}Make sure that the core Contextual Links module is installed, and that you have a role with the <em>Use contextual links</em> permission. Optionally, make sure that a toolbar module is installed (either the core Toolbar module or a contributed module replacement).{% endtrans %}</li>
<li>{% trans %}Visit a non-administrative page on your site, such as the home page.{% endtrans %}</li>
<li>{% trans %}Locate a block or another area on the page that you want to edit or configure.{% endtrans %}</li>
<li>{% trans %}Make the contextual links button visible by hovering your mouse over that area in the page. In most themes, this button looks like a pencil and is placed in the upper right corner of the page area (upper left for right-to-left languages), and hovering will also temporarily outline the affected area. Alternatively, click the contextual links toggle button on the right end of the toolbar (left end for right-to-left languages), which will make all contextual link buttons on the page visible until it is clicked again.{% endtrans %}</li>
<li>{% trans %}While the contextual links button for the area of interest is visible, click the button to display the list of links for that area. Click a link in the list to visit the corresponding administrative page.{% endtrans %}</li>
<li>{% trans %}Complete your administrative task and save your settings, or cancel the action. You should be returned to the page you started from.{% endtrans %}</li>

<p>{% trans %}The core software provides default responses for 403 response (Not Authorized: when someone tries to visit a page they do not have permission to see) and 404 response (Not Found: when someone tries to visit a page that does not exist).

<h2>{% trans %}Responding to software errors{% endtrans %}</h2>

<h2>{% trans %}Goal{% endtrans %}</h2>

<h2>{% trans %}What are 403 and 404 responses?{% endtrans %}</h2>
<p>{% trans %}When a user visits a web page, the web server sends a response code in addition to the page content. A normal, non-error response has code 200. If the page does not exist on the site, the response code is 404. If the page exists, but the user is not authorized to visit the page, the response code is 403. The core software provides default responses for both 403 and 404 codes, but if you prefer, you can create your own pages for each.{% endtrans %}</p>
<h2>{% trans %}What other errors can occur?{% endtrans %}</h2>
<p>{% trans %}Under some situations, your site can generate error messages. These can be due to user errors (such as entering invalid values in a form, or incorrect configuration), PHP runtime errors, or software bugs. Some errors may result in a <em>white screen of death</em> (a totally blank web page response); less drastic errors will generate error messages. You can configure what happens when an error message is generated.{% endtrans %}</p>
<h2>{% trans %}Steps {% endtrans %}</h2>

<li>{% trans %}In the <em>Error pages</em> section, enter the URL for your 403/403 pages, starting after the site home page URL. For example, if your site URL is <em>https://example.com</em> and your 404 page is <em>https://example.com/not-found</em>, you would enter <em>/not-found</em>.{% endtrans %}</li>
