It would be a strange world if we didn’t use names, but call each other "you" or, even worse, use numbers. In everyday life, we are well aware of the importance of our name. Some even ascribe to it meanings or magical powers that contribute to success in private and professional life. Therefore, it shouldn't be surprising that the name of our website domain is as important as our own name.

The new, major Drupal update was released on 15 June 2022. There are some new elements and changes, such as the Manage permissions tab, dynamic determination of the minimum PHP version, changes in the API, change of the default frontend theme from Bartik to Olivero, and the administrative theme from Seven to Claro. Quite a few functions and libraries have been labeled "deprecated". We'll talk more about these and other changes later in this article.

We are delighted that, with the 11th edition of DrupalCamp Poland, we’re coming back to the stationary formula. The event will take place on 28-29 May 2022 in Wroclaw at the Scandic hotel. Programming and business topics will be presented by 14 speakers from different countries.

When creating websites on Drupal, as developers, we should try to make our job easier. Managing modules, users, generating code – all these processes can be automated and performed with single commands. In this article, we'll take a look at the tools available and discuss them, giving specific examples of use.

Standardization has a positive effect on any business. There are certain coding standards in the software industry that are needed for successful software development. Coding standards are a set of rules and good practices that make code more legible and easier to develop. In this article, we’ll present what standards are used to create Drupal projects. We will show you the basic aspects that are worth paying attention to and the tools that make work easier.

Happy birthday, Drupal! It’s been 21 years since the release of the first stable version of our favorite open source content management system. With each subsequent year, it allows for creating more and more complex, modern, and responsive websites for companies of all sizes. Let’s take a look at Drupal possibilities over the years, the projects it's been used for, and the planned functionalities.

Choosing the right hosting on which we’ll place the website or application is the first very important decision that we need to make. Many aspects of the functioning of a web page may depend on it. There are many hosting services, and each one may provide a lot of content management systems (CMS) such as Drupal, which is one of the best solutions of this kind.

Even the best security audit of a website or application will be of little use if we don't document the detected threats, steps for reproduction, potential threats resulting from their use, and recommendations for fixing the bug. We'll show you how to prepare a detailed report step by step.

For laying out content on a website, Drupal standardly uses a single body field that takes advantage of the WYSIWYG capabilities and is available immediately after installation of the CKEditor. This solution is easy to use but not flexible enough to be suitable in every case. For more advanced layouts, we can use the functionality prepared by the community in the Paragraphs module.

The end has come! It may not be final, actually, but it's definitely quite relevant and meaningful considering Drupal's long way. We said goodbye to our reliable and beloved Drupal 8. When did it happen and what does it entail?
