AI generated song “Digital Fortress” about #Drupal. For some reason it really struggles to say Drupal. I tried to help it out but sometimes it just mumbles into its virtual microphone. Drupal is the secure and flexible website framework that many businesses are yet to discover. For those that have, you already have website superpowers. Pivale help people make the switch from #wordpress and others. Get secure, get peace of mind. Hackers hate Drupal! Lyrics I built you a site with Drupal (Droo-pull) A framework strong, indeed it's no bull Cyber fort high, to give you that thrill Oh, so swift, it's your digital mill What makes Drupal shine, the way that it do? Hey, businesses, ain't it right for you? With modular might, it's a powerhouse tool Customize away, make your own rule It's secure by design, with layers robust In Drupal we trust, leaving hackers nonplussed [Chorus] Drupal, the king, not just a CMS A digital force, putting rivals to the test

Why You Should Avoid Editing composer.lock Directly in Drupal 10 ? Modifying composer.lock in Drupal 10 can lead to several serious issues. Here’s a quick look at the consequences and the rare cases where editing it might be okay. Consequences of Editing composer.lock: 👉 Version Conflicts: Drupal modules and core have strict dependencies. Manually changing composer.lock can result in incompatible versions, breaking functionality. 👉 Security Risks: Using outdated or unsupported versions may expose the site to security vulnerabilities. 👉 Loss of Stability: Altering composer.lock bypasses Composer's dependency checks, risking unexpected bugs or crashes. 👉 Troubleshooting Challenges: Manually forced versions make debugging difficult since they disrupt Composer’s tracking of compatible packages. 👉 Deployment Issues: Direct changes create inconsistencies across dev and production environments, leading to unplanned errors during deployment. When It’s (Rarely) Okay to Edit composer.lock: 👉 Emergency Fixes in Production: If a critical vulnerability has no available patch, a temporary edit could work while awaiting an official update. 👉 Quick Rollbacks: In case of breaking issues post-update, editing to a stable previous version can act as a temporary measure. 👉 Testing Dependency Compatibility: For testing in isolated dev environments, specific dependency version tweaks might help evaluate compatibility. In most cases, always use Composer commands to manage dependencies and keep your Drupal 10 environment stable. #Drupal #Composer #Drupal10 #DependencyManagement #WebDevelopment #PHP #SiteStability #Security #DevOps

We extended this improvement to the #Drupal GUI installation process. The installation process is outputting the randomly generated values for Consumers as DRUPAL_CLIENT_ID and DRUPAL_CLIENT_SECRET to saving you the time of setting those again on the GUI and only copy/paste values instead. https://lnkd.in/gQuy8xkh

The Views module in Drupal makes it simple to manage pagination on your pages or blocks, allowing you to control how content is displayed and navigated. Here are the four pager options available for a page display: 1️⃣ Display a specified number of items: ↳ This option shows a set number. It is ideal for displaying a limited number, such as 5 or 10 items, to keep the page concise. 2️⃣ Display all items: ↳ This option lists all the results. However, loading too many items simultaneously can slow down your site and affect performance. 3️⃣ Paged output, full pager: ↳ This option includes a full pager with page numbers, making it easy for users to navigate multiple content pages. You get a link to each page and a next and previous button. 4️⃣ Paged output, mini pager: ↳ This option provides a mini pager with only the next and previous buttons. It offers a simpler navigation method when you do not need to display page numbers but still want users to move through content easily. As you can see, Views offer various options to control how users navigate through your content. #drupal #views #drupaldev ~~~ If you found this post helpful. ♻️ Please repost and follow. 📧 Join our newsletter; link in the first comment.
