Evacuate Sign is On for Drupal 7, Its time to List Next Options

Comment

With security support for Drupal 7 ending on January 5, 2025, website owners need to explore their options as Drupal 7 will no longer receive updates, leaving sites exposed to security risks and compatibility issues. This guide outlines migration paths for Drupal 7 sites, helping you decide the best approach to secure and maintain your web assets.

Key options include:

  1. Upgrade to Drupal 10 or 11: A complex but recommended route for full access to modern CMS features and security.
  2. Switch CMS Platforms: Ideal for small sites that could transition to simpler platforms like Webflow or Wix.
  3. Create a Static Site: Convert the dynamic site to static HTML to mitigate security risks.
  4. Maintain Drupal 7 Independently: Rely on in-house resources or external agencies to patch vulnerabilities manually.

Acting now will help you protect your site's value and functionality beyond January 2025. Contact Orion Web for guidance on developing a migration plan.
