This month we’ve been working on creating a parity between Drupal 8 (D8) and D9 modules.
Work is well underway on 95% of D8 modules. Once complete they will be D9 compatible. This percentage can be broken up into four sub categories:
- 39% already compatible
- 41% of modules have a D9 compatible version and are in the backlog to update
- 13% of modules are being worked on by module maintainers to identify a D9 compatible solution
- 2% of modules will be removed
The remaining 5% consists of five modules. Drupal maintainers aren’t currently working on the three modules below. We are looking at alternative solutions.
- Login Security Module
- Medial Entity Replace Module
- Events Log Track Module
The last two modules relate to the theme of a website:
- GovCMS8 UI Starter Kit
- GovCMS UI
To keep using these theme packages, you will need to create a copy and maintain it in your custom theme folder.
You can track our progress on the D8 to D9 page.
Our next task is to identify a mapping of functionality between D7 and D9 modules. This will help you to identify the right modules when you rebuild your website.
