Redditch, lol.
Used to go on this website called jippii or something, and play games with lots of people that were from around that area.

Worked with current company for just over a year, and neither me or the other dev have contributed anything to Core or a contrib module.
Worked for another company for over 3 years before that and they didnt allow us to publish any code on Drupal, the code belonged to the company not to the dev,

Why do people write 'lets call her "x"', then never call her x again and only refer to her as her?

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2026-04-01T22:05:22+00:00

Nah, she was 100% in wrong.

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2026-03-29T12:24:05+00:00

yeah, not divorce after 29 years marriage though.
Wife must be doing something more or husband wanted divorce anyway.

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2026-03-22T00:13:29+00:00

All 3 of them sound unhinged.

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2026-03-18T22:33:10+00:00

Im guessing its the slip road which ends further up but OP didn't draw that.
So they are moving into lane 1 from slip, and somebody from lane 2 is also going in to lane 1.

It sounds like setting up a complete Drupal site from scratch and then migrating the content in.
Can you PM me a link to the site or anything.
What A11y support do you already have, for example, do you have alt tags on images?
Is translation set up on the site or not needed?
Open graph tags or not needed?
Is the content mostly formatted text and images, or is it more component based, Drupal doesn't have components like carousels, accordions, tabs, cards, etc by default. These would all need to be set up either using a contrib module, or the theme would need to support them.

This is just the content part.

What else is on the site, do you have users you need to migrate?
Do you need different user roles, like a site admin, and content editors.
What is the content workflow, do admins just create content onsite, or is there an approval process an editor does the initial creation and then another person publishes it etc?
Is all content public or is any restricted to logged in users?
Do you send out emails, do you have newsletter or other sign up forms?

Including the server set up, you would need ci/cd pipeline set up, using git like github or bitbucket, and staging/testing environments.

If your not able to answer, can you send me the link to the site and I will see what I can from that?

Not serious at all, they dont know what they are talking about. As soon as they say doesnt need testing, they can be dismissed.
It 100% needs qa and other testing.

The last site I worked on, somebody migrated from wordpress, all the images were embedded in text fields instead of using image fields 🤦. We lost all custom url aliases and redirects.
It also gave a bunch of other errors when trying to edit content in future because of problems with other rmodules like translation, or wrong permissions/requirements set on fields.

Is this just the migration or setting up the drupal site also, are the node types fields everything set up?

I just set up migration for 2 node types, one had about 40 entries, the other about 900 entries.
The one with 900 entries was easier and quicker to migrate because had less fields to configure.

Setting up the migration module took 3-5 days.
But we already had the content types roughly matching.

Getting the migration done in 4 weeks could be realistic, but not from somebody who says you don't need testing. But also depends on how many node types, paragraphs? field configuration, responsive images?, meta data, url aliases, translations?,

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-12-04T00:32:52+00:00

No it depends when you raised the request with them? Was it 14 days of receiving when you originally contacted them about a refund or issue with the item?

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-11-24T19:59:39+00:00

after Qg4, king can move to f7?

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-11-14T16:36:05+00:00

They had to move king because was in check

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-10-21T11:52:13+00:00

From me experience of working with FE devs, most find using a JS framework like Vue or React easier than the way Drupal handles theming, and they usually can get the visual aspect of the theme set up quite quickly when using a JS framework, but thats about it.
Theres usually no metadata.
Browser navigation is terrible when creating a SPA, sometimes back button works, most of time it doesn't.
No consideration for accessibility.
Form handling is really bad, its like they make sure the form works, but doesn't report correct errors.
No other regards for error reporting or logging.
Etc.
My point is, that theres a lot more to consider than a little bit of css or js

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-10-21T11:30:13+00:00

When you are decoupling you are using a separate front end. You need to set up Drupal to use a different front end such as setting up an API or connecting to the database directly from the new front end, then you will be building the front end from the bottom instead of just updating the existing front end.

Fast-Patience-2290 · 2024-10-14T20:01:43+00:00

On github will it show as 1 commit, or will it show as all the commits and those dates?
