  • Provides links/buttons for user actions (search, browse, log in, log out, get help, switch language, add/edit content, translate, administer system)
  • Provides basic information about the application
  • Accessible to all users, but only shows elements relevant to user's role (for example, the admin link is only available to administrators
  • Accessible from any other page by clicking the site title, the application logo or the "home" link in the user menu
