Tag1 Team Talk

In the latest episode of Tag1 Team Talks, Michael Meyers, Managing Director of Tag1 Consulting, is joined by Tag1 Drupal experts Francesco Pesenti and Marco Molinari to discuss an essential update for Drupal 7 users: the integration of CKEditor 5 into the Tag1 Drupal 7 Extended Support (D7ES) platform.

CKEditor 4.x reached end-of-life (EOL) in June 2023, creating a significant challenge for Drupal 7 users: their trusted WYSIWYG editor now has known vulnerabilities that are no longer patched in the open-source community version. Upgrading to v5 is essential for maintaining security, but the only option has been paid support from CKSource.

Migrations How-To: #25

In this follow-up to migrating files, we focus on migrating users and taxonomy terms. Key topics include preventing entity ID conflicts, handling watermarks, and decoupling content migrations from configuration migrations. We’ll also create migration scripts for both entities and explore stylistic tips for cleaner, more compact migration files.

The first entity we will focus on is files, covering both public and private file migrations. We will share tips and hacks related to performance optimizations and discuss how to handle files hosted outside of Drupal.

Migrations How-To: #22

Migrations How-To: #21

We executed the last field-related migrations in the previous article, but we are not done with field configuration yet! Back in article 17, we used the Migrate Skip Fields module to prevent the automatic migration from importing image and YouTube fields. Today, we will use Drupal recipes to create media types and manually add media reference fields where needed.

Migrations How-To: #20

If you have been following our series, you have already migrated view modes—a prerequisite for field formatters. In this article, we are completing field-related migrations by importing formatter settings. This step builds on our previous work with view modes and field groups, bringing us closer to a functional Drupal 10 site.
