Migration support for Drupal 6 and 7 sites will not be in Drupal 12

By quietone on

The Migrate Drupal module, which is required for migrating Drupal 6 and 7 sites, will be removed from Drupal core in the next major release, Drupal 12. Also removed is the Migrate Drupal UI module, which provides a basic user interface for running a migration. Both of these modules will not be moved to a contributed project, as is often done for removed extensions.

This means that legacy Drupal sites will not be able to migrate directly to Drupal 12 and later. Legacy sites should migrate to Drupal 11 and then upgrade to Drupal 12.

Turning AI's Promise Into Practical Results at Drupal AI Summit Paris 2026

By drupalwench on

Author: Liz Krukosky

For most organizations, the question is no longer whether AI matters, but how AI fits into their own work, on what terms, and at what cost.

On December 1, 2026, the Drupal AI Summit Paris will bring together experts and organizations that have already worked through those questions, including EU institutions and medical researchers, to share what they learned.

Your summit ticket also gets you all three days of the Future of Software Technologies (FOST) conference, December 1-3, with over 300 sessions to choose from.

To that end, the Drupal Association launched the Drupal Advocacy Program: tell Drupal's story in your own voice, and earn contribution credits for it, through the same system that recognises code.
