Drupal 7 Migration Resource Center
Drupal 7 support ending on 5 January 2025
Drupal 7 security support ends on 5 January 2025. This is the final extension of Drupal 7 end of life – Drupal 7 will not receive security support after this date. But don’t worry! The Drupal Association and Drupal Security Team are providing resources, tools, and partners to empower you to migrate your Drupal 7 sites.
This date marks 14 years since Drupal 7’s original release. While we’re proud of what Drupal 7 accomplished, we are looking forward to all of the potential that Drupal 10 brings!
What does security support ending mean for you?
Now is the time to plan your migration.
In software terms, end of life means that the version of that software no longer receives feature updates, bug fixes, or security releases. This last point is the most important. If a security vulnerability is discovered after the end of life date, it may be publicly disclosed, and you will be unable to update your site to protect against the issue. For this reason, we recommend beginning to plan your migration now.
Timeline
We recommend that you kick off the major milestones in your migration process no later than these dates:
| Q3 2023 | Use the questionnaire below to decide on a direction for your Drupal site |
| Q4 2023 | Use your budget planning cycle for 2024 to set your budget for migration. |
| Select a certified partner to aid in your migration, and/or use our DIY resources to build a plan for your internal IT team | |
| Q1 2024 | Begin mapping your information architecture for migration, and decide if you will use this opportunity to update your content strategy. |
| Q4 2024 | Establish your strategy for ongoing support, maintenance and upgrades. |
Understanding your options as a Drupal 7 site owner
My Drupal site is the core of my digital presence, I have lots of content types, features, and editorial workflows
You are an ambitious Drupal user. Your website is not simple brochure-ware, but rather the center of digital experience for you users. You might be using Drupal at an enterprise scale, or at a smaller scale but with more complex digital functionality. You might be part of a university or healthcare system. You might be a digital startup with aspirations to bring value to a broad user base.
You likely use a variety of contributed modules, as well as custom code. You have quite a few content types, views, and taxonomies. You need Drupal's powerful tools for managing user permissions and workflows.
The best choice for you is to migrate to Drupal 10
My Drupal 7 site is not complex, and I don't have robust IT support to manage my site
You are using Drupal because it is an open source solution to provide flexible content management. You have a smaller number of content types and views, and very straightforward editorial workflows. Your site is not used for complex management of large amounts of user data. You may have a smaller budget to maintain your web presence.
You have ambitious plans for your digital future.
Today your digital presence is straightforward. But you have seen a growing digital future coming. You want to use this opportunity to think about the next generation of digital engagement with your users.
You should upgrade to Drupal 10, to unlock the future.
You'd like to reduce cost and complexity with your web platform.
You've been happy with Drupal, but you're concerned about the cost of the migration. You'd like a solution that will be easier to maintain with a small team and lower budget.
Drupal does not have to be expensive to maintain.
- Our Freelance & Small Shop partners can build Drupal to a scale and budget that works for you.
Drupal is heavily investing in ease of use and total cost of ownership
- The Automatic Updates initiative is designed to make updates easy, secure, and inexpesive.
- The Project Browser initiative is designed to make evaluating and installing modules easy -- without needing the command line or composer knowledge!
- Investments in usability continue with initiatives around Layout Builder and Gutenberg.
My Drupal 7 site is managed by an internal team, I'm looking for DIY resources
Your organization manages your Drupal site internally, either with your own IT team or an established relationship with consultants or agencies.
Have more questions?
The community has developed a guide to provide resources to Drupal 7 site owners no matter their current situation or plans for the future.
