Agiledrop Highlights Top Drupal Blog Posts from January 2025
January 2025 was a landmark month for the Drupal community, featuring the long-anticipated release of Drupal CMS 1.0 and the official end-of-life (EOL) for Drupal 7. A new blog post by Agiledrop compiles the most significant discussions and developments from the past month.
Dries Buytaert, the founder of Drupal, announced Drupal CMS 1.0 on January 15, introducing innovative features such as Recipes, which simplify site-building, and AI agents to assist users in content management. His post outlines the platform’s roadmap and acknowledges the community's contributions.
Another key topic was Drupal 7’s EOL on January 5. Eli Stone from Amazee Labs detailed options for site owners, including migrating to Drupal 11 or purchasing extended support. Meanwhile, Drupal 11.1 introduced object-oriented hooks, a major shift from traditional function-based hooks, as discussed by Joe Shindelar of Drupalize.me.
Additional articles explored Drupal’s performance compared to WordPress 6.7, AI-driven site management, and Drupal’s UX strategy. With Drupal CMS 1.0 now available, the platform is entering a new era of innovation and efficiency.
