Preparing for Drupal 7 End-of-Life: Upgrade Paths to Drupal 10
A recent blog post by Liao Zi1 discusses the upcoming end-of-life for Drupal 7, scheduled for January 2025, and provides insights into upgrading to Drupal 10. Two primary upgrade methods are outlined.
The first method uses Drush and the migrate_upgrade module, which involves migrating data from a Drupal 7 site by executing a specific command. This method may require adjustments in the settings.php file to resolve errors and ensure a smooth transition, though it can be time-consuming, especially for large sites.
The second method involves exporting the Drupal 7 site to JSON or XML and using the Feeds module to import content into Drupal 10, ensuring a clean migration. The post notes some challenges, such as conflicts with AMP and Feeds_ex modules and the need for custom solutions to display PHP content on pages.
