Slot 15: 10:00 am America/Los_Angeles - April 4, 2025

This discussion builds on conversations at various user groups and Midcamp session .  I will do a quick demo and then open Q and A session. 

Drawing from real-world case studies we will dive into the technical intricacies of migrating from Drupal 7 to Backdrop CMS, offering practical tips, best practices, and common pitfalls to avoid. We will demo modules developed in 2023 that automate and simplify migrations 

  • Site Audit with UI for D7
  • D2B migrate for BackdropCMS

From module compatibility and data migration to theming considerations, participants will leave with a comprehensive understanding of the technical challenges involved and practical solutions to overcome them. 

Whether you're a developer, project manager, or decision-maker, this session will empower you to make the transition from Drupal 7 to Backdrop CMS a smooth and cost-effective journey.
