Drupal 10

What’s involved in upgrading my website?

We’re working towards a streamlined process to help minimise your efforts. The plan is to complete all the D9-D10 upgrades this between July and August 2023. You will have a 2-week time boxed opportunity to test your website and identify any issues. At a high level, the process will involve:

creating a Drupal 10 (D10) version of your website in a feature branch in GitLab
having the opportunity to validate the upgrade, test your website and identify and fix any issues
switching the Drupal 9 (D9) website to the D10 website.

This table shows when modules were updated in the GovCMS distribution with a Drupal 10 compatible version. The version number included with the module indicates the first Drupal 10 compatibility version introduced to the distribution (not necessarily the first D10 compatible version of the module).

This table only shows releases that have Drupal 10 module updates. All GovCMS releases can be found on GitHub.
