This week, lots of work on the LocalGov News module.

Drupal theming system is one of the most flexible and powerful tools for web developers, especially when it comes to creating visually appealing and highly functional websites. As a Content management system (CMS), drupal provides the best customization capabilities, making it a top choice for developers worldwide. 

Today we are going to delve deeper into Drupal's Theming system, and its core component.

In this blog, we'll dive into Drupal’s theming system, its core components, and how LN Webworks, with its expert team, leverages Drupal development services to ensure that every Drupal-based website is not just functional but also visually engaging.

Integrating Pipedrive, a powerful CRM tool, with a Drupal Webform can automate lead capturing, tracking, and data management. By using Webform, we can create a custom form and submit form data directly to Pipedrive, enabling a seamless flow of information from your website to your CRM

In this post, we’ll walk through the process of creating a Drupal Webform and then show how to configure a submit handler to send form data to Pipedrive.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:

• A Pipedrive account and API access (API key).
• A Drupal installation with the Webform module installed and enabled.

Integrating Pipedrive with Drupal Webform: A Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Install the Webform Module in Drupal

The Webform module allows you to create forms and manage submissions in Drupal. To install the Webform module, follow these steps:

Artisan is a Drupal base theme built on Bootstrap 5 and Sass. It offers easy theme configurations, theme presets (or variants), and extensive use of CSS variables.

Why Artisan?

The inspiration for Artisan comes from Radix, a well-known theme we used for a long time. However, once you master something that is not directly tailored to your needs, you may start to wish for changes—small ones at first, but larger ones over time. For example, we found ourselves overwriting too many base templates for our Drupal projects. We wanted the templates provided by the base theme to be extensible enough to avoid being discarded based on the needs of specific projects. In the end, we decided to create our own theme.

The main goal of the Artisan base theme is to provide a foundation that allows most of its components to be reused without requiring complete overwrites in the custom theme of a specific project. To achieve this, Artisan offers a functional design base that is easily extensible, as explained below.

Artisan also makes extensive use of  CSS custom properties (commonly known as CSS variables) to fully leverage their benefits. By using these variables, you can easily reuse styles across your project, ensuring greater design consistency. Additionally, they simplify…

At DrupalCon Barcelona, we were amazed to see all the powerful and functional Drupal AI integrations in action. I have been following the development closely, and after the recent release announcement of the AI (Artificial Intelligence) module, we decided to recreate one of its use cases: a RAG chatbot enabling semantic search. 

Headless CMS allows flexible data exposure for different applications. In systems like Drupal, this concept becomes especially important for teams that want to build modern applications with a separate frontend layer. In this blog post, you'll see the process of exposing Drupal data using the REST API and JSON API. You'll also discover how to customize views, generate content, and manage settings to ensure seamless collaboration with frontend frameworks.

Well, it's official. My Drupal Lenient Composer Plugin has allowed the lenient Composer repository endpoint on Drupal.org to be sunset and removed. I created the mglaman/composer-drupal-lenient repository two years ago at DrupalCon Portland. It is pretty wild how much it has been adopted in just two years. Not only has it allowed the Drupal Association to dismantle some infrastructure, but it is also baked into the Drupal.org GitLab CI. The package is pushing over 3,000,000 downloads from Packagist!

Drupal core contains a potential PHP Object Injection vulnerability that (if combined with another exploit) could lead to Remote Code Execution. It is not directly exploitable.

This issue is mitigated by the fact that in order for it to be exploitable, a separate vulnerability must be present to allow an attacker to pass unsafe input to unserialize(). There are no such known exploits in Drupal core.

To help protect against this potential vulnerability, types have been added to properties in some of Drupal core's classes. If an application extends those classes, the same types may need to be specified on the subclass to avoid a TypeError.

Install the latest version:

• If you are using Drupal 10.2, update to Drupal 10.2.11.
• If you are using Drupal 10.3, update to Drupal 10.3.9.
• If you are using Drupal 11.0, update to Drupal 11.0.8.
• Drupal 7 is not affected.

All versions of Drupal 10 prior to 10.2 are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. (Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)
