Initlab's Drupal 9 Migration Transforms Cable Guy Website

Staff Reporter

Initlab, a web development firm, has recently published a case study regarding their migration of the Cable Guy website to Drupal 9. The migration was propelled by the necessity to introduce a mobile version and implement new functionalities. Upgrading from Drupal 6, the move to Drupal 9 streamlined site operations, significantly reducing maintenance costs and enhancing overall performance.

The Cable Guy website, previously operating on an outdated Drupal 6 version since 2017, faced challenges setting up a mobile version and implementing necessary tasks. Initlab addressed this by orchestrating a meticulous migration. This transition facilitated the seamless transfer of a vast content repository, including news, articles, and blogs, ensuring the preservation of years' worth of information. Notably, they rectified formatting issues of images within articles through an automated script, making content adaptable to the new site's responsive design.

Furthermore, Initlab's migration efforts led to a revamped site design, rendering pages more visually appealing and adaptable to modern design standards, especially for mobile devices. Alongside visual enhancements, the migration resolved previous image loading issues and introduced new integrations, including a newsletter setup with Unisender, offering detailed statistics and efficient interaction channels.
