Learning Drupal

This site's slowly growing up as i learn how to configure Drupal better. Still much to do, though, and the byzantine permissions system isn't helping me climb the learning curve.

I've got a "primary links" menu enabled that looks really nice — if you're logged in. I want to enable it for everybody, even anonymous guests with no user account. How to do it? Still learning...

There's a tag system, too, and it does seem to work, after a fashion. But it's not clear to me how to create something as basic and necessary as a tag cloud. There's got to be a way, but i haven't found it yet. Ties in to the deeper and subtler "vocabulary" system in Drupal, and with Drupal "deep and subtle" equals "powerful but very, very arcane".

…I'm the sorcerer's apprentice. Again. Story of my career.

primary links

seem to have shown up, after all. hmm, maybe enabling "aggressive" caching wasn't too smart after all?
