Today I launched my first #backdrop #backdropCMS site, as #CiviCRM migration strategy away from Drupal 7 for a site that used a lot of drupalisms.
Today there's a security update for Backdrop, so I learnt also how to do that!

I'm excited to be participating in @fldrupalcamp later this month. Lots of great sessions!
I'll be leading one called "Back(drop) to the Future" to outline some of the reasons that make #Backdrop a great choice for certain types of projects.

@dries Another SABDFL gets brain-rot.
I was dismissive of #Backdrop, thinking it was right and proper to grow up and align with "industry best practice" rather than "Drupalisms".
I was wrong. #Drupal was built by dabblers. People who just wanted a website for the thing they did, and accidentally ended up as web developers. Indeed Drupal rockstars.

Revisiting ‘#Iowa,’ #PatrickMoore’s #neglected #gay #novel
Patrick Moore’s #book is a prime example of overlooked #Midwestern #literature that deserves renewed #attention. Set against the #conservative #backdrop of #Smalltown #Iowa, the #novel explores the #life of a #closeted #gay #teenager navigating #desire, #repression, and #identity in the 1990s.

AM STILL MAD ABOUT THIS!
i spent the whole day, WHOLE FUCKING DAY, debugging in #Backdrop with #ckeditor the #Mastodon embeddable code.
WHOLE
FUCKING
DAY
and even after i got it to work, i have to submit a ticket because it looks like Mastodon is NOT following standard #oembed protocols; hence the difficulties.
this should not have taken me a whole fucking day to sort out but every single FLOSS project is pulling bullshit moves and breaking the web (AM LOOKING AT YOU #CKEDITOR)

There's a real need for f/oss CMS modules/plugins to insert #LLMPoisoning text into pages. #WordPress #Drupal #Backdrop #Joomla
Transitioning from Drupal 7 to Backdrop CMS · Greg Boggs
As the impending end of life for Drupal 7 draws near, the necessity for website owners to consider their migration options becomes increasingly urgent. While the prevailing trend in the Drupal community leans towards transitioning to Drupal 10 to leverage its modern features, some are hesitant due to the associated costs.... #backdrop #drupal

laviquipregunta.cat és el web del programa La Viquipregunta que vam iniciar el març del 2023. És un web fet amb Backdrop força simple, amb un únic tipus de contingut programa per a fer un llistat dels programes emesos. Cada entrada de programa consta d'una descripció, els enllaços de què parlem i el pòdcast. Originalment, el podcast era un arxiu d'àudio pujat al web.

@juliewebgirl @reconbot @robhon @KathyReid @pluralistic @defcon I can always spool up a masto instance for us on one of the servers but lots of work for two users.
And I'm not a fan of ruby/rails/PostgresSql ( not my core skills) so really don't want to.
I'd rather wait out WordPress investment in #Fedi (and my side, #Drupal*/ #Backdrop #Nextcloud)
*Why does Auto insist Drupal is "Deepak" I'll never understand.

#Brush hasn't been updated since June of last year ... and it wasn't well received by the community.. #Drush has a "shim" that sort of works-ish to work with #Backdrop. My config doesn't like it at all and I don't use composer if I can avoid it.
Bee's last commit was two days ago.
I think the choice is clear.
And most of the commands are the same as Drush's, so my learning curve is minimal.
This'll do just fine.
Bah. Issues with new server, #Backdrop (which works flawlessly) and Drush (latest compatible version is 8.4.10). I guess there's Brush and Bee, but if I recall from last year (heh, wouldn't count on it) they weren't done baking.
Guess we're gonna' find out.
Meanwhile, wp-cli just works as usual, adding insult to injury.

@mikemccaffrey @Auxonic Found this old thread checking on the #Backdrop hashtag (vs. #BackdropCMS) and now you have me musing about whether something like this would work for Backdrop...
Drupal.orgTwig for DrupalThe drupal 7 implementation of TWIG template system. Documentation for this project is available at to tfd7.rocks, and a base theme is available at Soid sandbox Twig for Drupal 7 could be a nice starting point of creating theme's that will be portable to Drupal 8, not 100% portable but with significant less work then converting all your tpl.php files to .twig files.
