After spending some time trying to figure out how I could move the 'My Account' menu link from the Navigation Menu within Drupal I soon came to realize that it wasn't budging.
After digging around for some solutions I came across the
'me' Aliases module. I must say, although simply in nature, its a nifty little utility module.
The way that it works is that where ever you place an
me within the Path field for menu item the me will reference back to the current users uid.
Example: John Doe has a uid of 30.
In order for John to get to his account to manage his information he must go to:
http://domain.com/user/30 (without the me aliases module)
http://domain.com/user/me (with the me aliases module)
Here is a screen shot of what it will look like when you add a menu item using the module.
For additional information about this module or to download it, please visit

I didn't mean to imply that you were bashing unit tests.
