Redirect Menu Item

Drupal's menu system does not allow the use of redirect paths as menu items. Sometimes, however, site builders want to have two menu items point to the same content, while having one of those be the "canonical" menu item that is used when menu-related modules make decisions that depend on where in the menu hierarchy a node is. For example, which menu item should get the active menu trail which is used to define breadcrumbing for that page?

The Redirect Menu Item module (which depends on the Redirect module) enables saving redirect paths as menu items. When the redirect is updated, the menu item will be updated as well. If the redirect is deleted, the menu item will be deleted as well.

For another approach to placing the same content at different places in a menu, try the NodeSymLinks module.

Note: This module is based on Sudipta Bandyopadhyay's Path Redirect Menu Item module for Drupal 6, but is written for Drupal 7.
