[support] Rather fundamental question - how to find how site is structured, e.g. where is the home/front page defined?

Just be aware that the copy over method for contributed modules may not
be what you want to do.  I highly suggest instead to remove the old
directory and then install the new one.  The reasons are varied but you
can have a module that creates new directories or renames files or both
and have more than one version of files in the directory.
