China’s most infamous ghost town is now training ground for driverless trucks

A Chinese city that failed to attract people has become a sandbox for machines. Ordos, a coal-rich northern Chinese city that never took off after prices crashed in 2012, has...

TO GO WITH AFP STORY 'China-economy-society-property,FEATURE' by Allison JacksonA driver approaches an intersection in Kangbashi, a district on the outskirts of Ordos, in China's Inner Mongolia on April 20, 2011. Kangbashi district offers residents "new modern" living, with tree-lined streets, shiny apartment buildings, vast parklands, restaurants and even a motor racing track. But seven years after construction workers broke ground on the arid plateau, most of the apartments appear empty and the wide streets are almost deserted -- earning Kangbashi the tag of "ghost city".

The best Drupal Contest is LIVE!

Just wanted to share that DrupalFit is running the DrupalFit Challenge – Vienna Edition this year. The idea is simple: they audit submitted Drupal websites using their DrupalFit tool, checking things like performance, security, accessibility, and overall site health.

They’ll recognize the top sites across five award categories, with winners announced live at DrupalCon Vienna on October 16th.

If you’ve got a site you’re proud of, it could be a fun way to see how it measures up and get some recognition from the community.

How hard is it to upgrade a Drupal Site (9.2.4 to 10 or higher)

Hi everyone! I'm new here.
I work for a non-profit and I am in need of some help or pointers in the right direction. I for one am not a web developer, I am going to school for computer science, but am not that skillful yet.
Okay back on topic, so I work for a non-profit, and I'm working on their SEO for the website. Doing research and figuring out what I need to add to the Drupal site, I contacted our web master, but he unfortunately cannot help anymore, and will relinquish the code and other information to me so I can find another Drupal Dev.
How difficult is it to upgrade a Drupal site that is this old?
How much time will it take?
How much will this cost?

Any and all help is appreciated!

I'm pretty tech savvy and I love to learn about anything and everything. I am also the technology and maintenance director for this non-profit.

CONTEXT: Through my research on SEO I learned I have to have metatags and schema metatags modules for the Drupal site. Our Drupal CMS version is 9.2.4 and in order to use metatags we have to have 10.3 or higher. Webmaster told me about this version conflict that I overlooked during my research, and also notified me that he can no longer do freelance work, due to his new contract with his employer.

Modules not upgrading from D7 to D10 ? like " pathauto flag etc... "

1: I am upgrading my Drupal7 to Drupal10 through the D10 UI ( web/upgrade ), when on the "What will be upgraded?“ , its showing the modules like "Automatic Entity Labels, flag, pathauto, simplenews, " are all under the "Modules that will not be upgraded" list, I have enabled these modules in the D10 new site, so my question is why these modules that can not be upgraded or they don't need to be upgraded ? for example, my Drupal7 using flag module to flogged lots nodes, if it won't be upgraded, then all those flogged content will be lose ? and the auto-entity-labels , if it does't upgrade, then how the D7 node title will be transfer to D10 ? please advise

2: btw : Do I need to enabled the commerce module in D10 to upgrade the D7 commerce setting into D10 ? will all the D7 commerce setting like products will be upgraded to D10 through the default upgrade UI ?

Thank you.

React based JSON-API Explorer for Drupal

I finally took some time to build an up to date jsonapi explorer for Drupal / NodeHive.

You can play around here:
https://nodehive-explorer.vercel.app/?baseurl=demo.nodehive.app

This is the pitch:

A comprehensive web-based API explorer for NodeHive and Drupal JSON:API endpoints. Explore, query, and generate code for all your content entities with an intuitive interface.

Features

  • Content Entity Explorers: Browse and query Nodes, Taxonomy Terms, Media, Menus, Texts, Fragments, and Areas
  • Entity Type Management: Access Content Types, Media Types, Fragment Types, and Vocabularies
  • System Tools: Router and Spaces explorers for system-level operations
  • Dynamic Field Discovery: Automatically detect available fields for each entity type
  • Advanced Filtering: Sort, limit, include relations, and select specific fields
  • Multiple View Modes: View response data as Table, Tree, or Raw JSON
  • Permission Awareness: Visual warnings when content is hidden due to insufficient permissions
  • Code Generation: Generate ready-to-use JavaScript/TypeScript code with nodehive-js for any query
  • Flexible Authentication: Connect anonymously or with credentials, with visual connection status
  • URL Parameters: Auto-connect via ?baseurl= query parameter
  • Security-First: Only exposes entity types that are openly available via the API

Restricting taxonomy term selection on field?

For example I have taxonomy terms vocabulary of "Fruits" which consist of:

-Apple
-Banana
-Pear
-Dragonfruit
-Pineapple

On one field I want to have selection from limited range:

-Apple
-Banana
-Pear

On the other from:

-Pear
-Dragonfruit
-Pineapple

And so on.
Basically I want to limit taxonomy depending on the field. Now there are no form selection widgets to do that, the only option is to display all the terms of the "Fruits"

Is there a module for that? Multiple parents somehow probably could help, but still there is no widget to limit selection to terms of particular parent, but that is even more of a problem as in this case multiple parents are more of a structural problem. Hierarchical selection modules (I think) do not work in this case.

Also all the terms have to be in the same vocabulary. No multiple vocabularies with term duplication.

Any ideas are welcome. Drupal 11.
