Worried about the future of your Drupal 7 website? With Drupal 7 reaching end-of-life in January 2025, many site owners and developers are facing a tough decision: migrate to a new version of Drupal or to a new platform altogether, or risk running an unsupported site.

The last two years have been eventful for most of us, and the Drupal community is no exception to that. From the shift to online DrupalCons and their return to in person this year, to new releases of Drupal and the revisiting of old ones, it’s been a momentous time. Drupal 7 was originally scheduled to reach end of life (community support) in November of 2021.
