Adopt a Document: Sponsor Drupal CMS Documentation
At Drupalize.Me, we've been talking with Dries and folks at the Drupal Association about how we can contribute high quality documentation for Drupal CMS. The plan for Drupal CMS documentation is emerging. We believe Drupal CMS documentation should be a highly polished and organized user guide for end-users of Drupal CMS. And that it should be funded. Why?

This Wednesday, May 8, I'm speaking at DrupalCon Portland 2024 as part of the Drupal Project Initiatives Keynote. The keynote is kicking off Contribution Day on Wednesday first thing in the morning. I'll be highlighting initiatives and programs that are helping people contribute in a strategic way, and as a result, increasing throughput in the core issue queue. Throughput is the rate that a project’s issues are resolved and committed. And it’s one way to gauge the health of an open source project like Drupal.

Tuning Drupalize.Me Search Results with Solr Query Re-Ranking and Search API

The significant changes between Drupal 7 and modern versions necessitated maintaining two versions of each tutorial on our site: one for legacy Drupal and another for modern Drupal.
Today, we still maintain both versions. The use of our legacy Drupal content has steadily decreased, yet it still has a substantial presence in searc ..read more

PHP Attributes for Drupal Plugins
As of PHP 8.1, the PHP language has native support for attributes that are compatible with Drupal’s plugin system use case. As a result, Drupal will transition from the use of annotations to PHP attributes, to supply metadata and configuration for plugins. This will require developers to learn the new PHP attributes syntax, and update their existing code to use it. For now Drupal will continue to support both annotations and attributes. But the proverbial clock is ticking.
So let’s take a look at how we got here, and what you’ll need to do to update your code ..read more
