Upgrade from Drupal 7 Before 2025 Deadline

In a recent blog post, Oliver Davies emphasizes the urgency of upgrading from Drupal 7, as there's just one year left before its support ends. Despite the looming deadline, over 337,000 websites are still running on Drupal 7, as reported by Drupal Usage Statistics

Davies advises website owners with Drupal 7 to initiate the upgrading process now. Unlike smoother transitions between other Drupal versions, moving from Drupal 7 demands significant code changes for compatibility, requiring careful testing and considerable time. With the support ending in 2025, proactive steps will prevent potential security vulnerabilities associated with running an outdated and unsupported version.
