Droptica's Guide to Migrating from Drupal 7 to Drupal 11 Using Modules

Staff Reporter

With Drupal 7 support ending on January 5, 2025, website owners must migrate to newer versions to maintain security and functionality. A new blog post on Droptica provides a comprehensive guide to migrating from Drupal 7 to Drupal 11 using Drupal's built-in migration tools.

The guide outlines the key steps, including analyzing the current website, preparing a development environment, and performing the migration. Users are encouraged to use tools like 'Devel Generate' for test content and enable core migration modules like 'Migrate', 'Migrate Drupal', and 'Migrate Drupal UI'.

Key migration tasks include configuring source connections, transferring content, and adapting custom elements like themes and modules to Drupal 11’s updated framework. The blog highlights challenges, such as compatibility issues with older modules and the need to rebuild custom designs and obsolete functions.

Migrating to Drupal 11 offers benefits like improved media management, a modern Twig-based templating system, and enhanced security. With proper preparation, this transition can be seamless. Visit Droptica's blog for the full guide and expert insights.
