A contributed module introduces multilingual support to Drupal Canvas by addressing issues that prevent the editor from functioning in language-prefixed environments. Developed by David Palmero Jara, the release resolves problems such as translation loss during autosave, broken editor loading, and missing assets. The module also implements an asymmetric translation model, allowing each language version to be edited independently while maintaining stability across multilingual sites. ...more

Drupal has launched a pilot Site Template Marketplace at DrupalCon Chicago, offering preconfigured starting points for organisations building with Drupal CMS. The templates are positioned as installable site foundations with content structure, workflows, and sector-specific configuration already in place, extending Drupal’s recent push to make site building more accessible beyond specialist developer teams. ...more

Wim Leers examines how strict configuration validation in Drupal has led to an unexpected outcome in AI-assisted development. Using Drupal Canvas as an example, the post shows how validation enables large language models to generate functional code with minimal prompting. It positions validation as a shared interface that improves reliability for both developers and AI systems. ...more

Document Loader 2.0.0 introduces a structured approach to ingesting and normalising documents within Drupal, combining a plugin-driven architecture with AI agent integration. Originally conceived to support AI context management, the module has evolved into a broader ingestion framework capable of handling multiple file formats and external sources. Its release reflects ongoing efforts in the Drupal ecosystem to standardise data intake and enable reusable pipelines for content processing. ...more

A new documentation site for Module Builder centralises reference material for its Drupal code generation system, making previously interface-bound configuration options accessible in a structured format. The update also introduces a minor usability improvement, but the primary development is the formalisation of documentation for a tool that dynamically adapts to a site’s codebase. ...more

Drupal 12 has moved into its second release window after maintainers confirmed that critical requirements will not be completed in time for a June release. The revised timeline shifts attention to a smaller set of high-priority tasks spanning testing infrastructure, frontend tooling, upgrade paths, and core cleanup. Whether Drupal 12 ships in August now depends on completing this work within a narrow timeframe. ...more

The numbers are settled. The questions are not. Following Drupal’s infrastructure cost breakdown, developers and organisations are now debating how open source systems should be funded—and who is responsible for keeping them running. ...more

Version 2.0.0 of composer-drupal-lenient introduces support for Composer’s why-not and prohibits commands, along with a runtime hook to bypass core version checks. Announced by Matt Glaman, the update allows developers to install and test modules that would otherwise be blocked by strict compatibility declarations. The release targets upgrade scenarios where version constraints prevent otherwise functional code from being used. ...more

Version 2.2.1 of the File Upload Secure Validator module introduces a maintenance-focused update aligned with Drupal 11 and upcoming Drupal 12 requirements. Maintainer Stefanos Petrakis reports that the release resolves CI failures, removes deprecations, and expands automated testing. The update reflects ongoing efforts to stabilise widely used security-related modules without introducing new features. ...more

Drupal Canvas introduced visual page building for content teams, but organisations using React component libraries have faced integration limits. An article by Stewart Robinson of Full Fat Things outlines an open source bridge that connects existing React components to Drupal Canvas. The approach allows teams to combine Drupal’s content management with established frontend systems. ...more

A contributed Drupal module called AVA introduces AI-assisted creation of Views using natural language prompts, aiming to simplify one of the platform’s most complex configuration systems. Shared by Rod Martin, the module integrates with Google Gemini to generate YAML-based configurations for pages, blocks, and listings. The approach reflects ongoing experimentation within the Drupal ecosystem around AI-assisted site building and workflow automation. ...more

Development of the Drupal MCP Server module has paused due to a lack of funding, prompting its maintainer to seek sponsorship support. Community members responding to the appeal have pointed to the module’s potential role in enabling AI-driven workflows within Drupal. The discussion also highlights technical and security considerations as projects explore alternative implementations. ...more
