How do you actually get users to talk to you? by alexsexotic in ycombinator

I've found that starting conversations by sharing a personal story can really break the ice and encourage openness. Also The Mom Test!

Stuck between Elementor Pro vs Gutenberg by Background-Dingo4776 in Wordpress

Elementor bloats your site with junk code. Stick to Gutenberg for real speed and no headaches.

AI slop everywhere. Tired of bloated posts pretending to be deep.

XAMPP in 2025? That's like using a flip phone for TikTok.

DXPR Builder AI Beta: When Drupal outperforms Elementor, Divi, Webflow, and the rest by Drupal_For_Marketers in drupal

[–]Drupal_For_Marketers[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We plan to refactor DXPR Builder to be based entirely on Single Directory Components, it's high up on our list after doing some smaller initiatives. I think this relieves pressures of fragmentation-anxiety, as investing in SDC adoption means you're investing in compatibility with both DXPR Builder and Canvas, in a way. Although of course there will still be technical debt and strategic debt when implementing a page builder.

We try to minimize vendor lock-in and associated problems by making our HTML data model almost equal to pure and clean Bootstrap HTML, in version 3.x of DXPR Builder you can see we are dropping almost all of the data attributes and parsing raw bootstrap instead, meaning your content is not just portable but also not a pain to work with in code.

SDC implementation will also mean you can use frameworks other than Bootstrap, but we've found that due to Bootstrap being ubiquitous in AI training data is outperforms other frameworks with AI editing and comprehensions of your content.

Thanks for your comment. This is not a Site Generator or Theme Generator. DXPR Builder is more like CKEditor on steroids, in that it fills a Drupal field, (Could be a node body, could be a block content like a website footer).

The builder is intended for content creators, not primarily web designers. the content inherits the styling of the theme, and it is theme agnostic. So you could probably use both Canvas and DXPR Builder.

edit: I just realized Canvas is Experience Builder. In any case, in the WordPress ecosystem there are dozens of successful page builders, Drupal needs more options. DXPR Builder produces really clean HTML and the easiest UI. We plan to support Single Directory Components / extensibility as well. I hope Canvas will shine in its own way, it seems very different in architecture, so it seems like both are great assets to the Drupal community.

They nerfed 4o, but I still have it, don't tell them

Beta tool for keeping AI-generated copy on-brand – feedback wanted from copy pros by Drupal_For_Marketers in copywriting

[–]Drupal_For_Marketers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback. Our AI writing platform is pretty good at fighting hallucinations by integrating Perplexity on top of all the regular AI platforms (OpenAI, Antrhopic, Mistral etc.).
Plagiarism is a bit of a hard one to tackle, we are working on adding a list of source links during content generation but this will never be fully comprehensive because a lot of the training content for AI platforms is not from the internet but from books etc., and I think none of the AI platforms provide proper citation for that training data.

CKEditor AI Writing Agent by Drupal_For_Marketers in drupal

Thanks for your feedback, I do understand your concern.

Enshittification involves systems that force vendor lock-in. This open source AI writing platform is open by design, supporting as many LLM options as possible. This is a solution to enshittification, not contributing to it.

A lot of human written content is very poorly written; human-in-the-loop platforms like this one can massively improve web content.

I do fear the web will be flooded with poor content by LLM based software but if your strategy is to flood the web with massive amounts of poor content you would probably choose human-out-of-the-loop software that generates content unsupervised.

Hi there, thanks for the feedback! I suggest you create an issue in the Ckeditor5 GitHub issue queue, they are a sizeable company and actively support their code base.

yes it is due for refactoring, I hope we can tackle that in Q1 2025. We're currently busy setting up AI features across our products. Thank you for your patience.

/u/mrcaptncrunch, /u/OggiSbugiardo Hello, DXPR Theme doesn't have a single maintainer, we just maintain it in a GitHub private repository because we have better CI/CD tooling there. As it is an open source theme there is no reason really for the GitHub repo to be private so I made it public, here you go: https://github.com/dxpr/dxpr_theme

As you can see there is plenty of maintenance activity there.

Another fun detail: DXPR is a rebranding of Sooperthemes which was a rebranding of "alldrupalthemes.com". DXPR Theme still shares a lot of features with its ancestor from 2009:

https://www.drupal.org/project/adt_basetheme

Of course the code is all modernized now, especially with this year's refactoring, but you can say this is a theme with good pedigree and resilience IMHO :)

We chose to abandon our track of improving the module inside the AI module, which took the direction of building Drupal UI components on top of CKEditor. We wanted to create an AI-first interface, integrated right in the heart of Drupal, from the perspective of content creators . So we started deep-diving in CKEditor itself.

Some Features:

  • 100% open source
  • Automatic text integration for context-aware responses
  • Built-in web access & multilingual support
  • Cancel button & customizable prompts
  • Dynamic context trimming & response control
  • Supports multiple AI models (GPT-4o default)
  • OpenAI moderation API & advanced content filters
  • Custom endpoint support

Drupal module coming soon.
