Hey everyone, I'm running into a frustrating issue with a Drupal Multisite setup and could use some help.

I'm on a Linux server running Drupal 10.6.2 and Drush 12.5.3.0. My working directory is /var/www/uat.

Here is my /var/www/uat/phpunit.myWebsiteBBB.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <phpunit bootstrap="/var/www/uat/bootstrap.myWebsiteBBB.php" colors="true"> <php> <env name="DTT_SITE_DIR" value="myWebsiteBBB"/> <env name="SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL" value="https://uat.myWebsiteBBB.com"/> <env name="SIMPLETEST_DB" value="mysql://lmuat:Bwurp9vS(CQSbd5F@localhost:3306/myWebsiteBBB"/> <env name="BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY" value="/var/www/uat/web/sites/simpletest/browser_output"/> <ini name="memory_limit" value="-1"/> <server name="HTTP_HOST" value="uat.myWebsiteBBB.com"/> <server name="SERVER_NAME" value="uat.myWebsiteBBB.com"/> <env name="DTT_BASE_URL" value="https://uat.myWebsiteBBB.com"/> <env name="DTT_API_URL" value="https://uat.myWebsiteBBB.com"/> </php> <testsuites> <testsuite name="MyWebsiteBBB Existing Site Tests"> <directory>/var/www/uat/web/modules/custom/lps_api/tests/src/ExistingSite</directory> </testsuite> </testsuites> </phpunit> 

And my /var/www/uat/phpunit.myPageAAA.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <phpunit bootstrap="/var/www/uat/web/core/tests/bootstrap.php" colors="true"> <php> <env name="DTT_SITE_DIR" value="default"/> <env name="SIMPLETEST_BASE_URL" value="https://uat.myPageAAA.ca"/> <env name="SIMPLETEST_DB" value="mysql://lmuat:Bwurp9vS(CQSbd5F@localhost:3306/multisite"/> <env name="BROWSERTEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY" value="/var/www/uat/web/sites/simpletest/browser_output"/> <ini name="memory_limit" value="-1"/> <server name="HTTP_HOST" value="uat.myPageAAA.ca"/> <server name="SERVER_NAME" value="uat.myPageAAA.ca"/> <env name="DTT_BASE_URL" value="https://uat.myPageAAA.ca"/> <env name="DTT_API_URL" value="http://localhost"/> </php> <testsuites> <testsuite name="MyPageAAA Existing Site Tests"> <directory>/var/www/uat/web/modules/custom/lps_api/tests/src/ExistingSite</directory> </testsuite> </testsuites> </phpunit> 

The tests are located in: /var/www/uat/web/modules/custom/lps_api/tests/src/ExistingSite/

I added some lines to debug the environment in /var/www/uat/web/modules/custom/lps_api/tests/src/ExistingSite/ClinicImagesConsistencyTest.php:

public function testClinicImagesMatchJson(): void { // --- HOME SAFE DIAGNOSTICS --- $site_path = \Drupal::getContainer()->getParameter('site.path'); $db_name = \Drupal\Core\Database\Database::getConnection()->getConnectionOptions()['database']; $dtt_url = getenv('DTT_BASE_URL'); fwrite(STDERR, "\n--- SCAN RESULTS ---\n"); fwrite(STDERR, "1. Environment URL (DTT_BASE_URL): " . ($dtt_url ?: 'VACÍO') . "\n"); fwrite(STDERR, "2. Folder you chose to upload : " . $site_path . "\n"); fwrite(STDERR, "3. Final database : " . $db_name . "\n"); fwrite(STDERR, "------------------------------\n"); // --- END OF SAFE DIAGNOSIS --- 

In /var/www/uat/web/sites/sites.php:

<?php $sites['upcore.branchmanager.myWebsiteBBB.com'] = 'myWebsiteBBB'; $sites['dev.branchmanager.myWebsiteBBB.com'] = 'myWebsiteBBB'; $sites['myWebsiteBBB.com'] = 'myWebsiteBBB'; $sites['uat.myWebsiteBBB.com'] = 'myWebsiteBBB'; 

I have two sites: uat.myPageAAA and uat.myWebsiteBBB. Inside /var/www/uat/web/sites, I have the following folders: myWebsiteBBB and default.

So, what's the problem? When I execute: ./vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.myWebsiteBBB.xml

This is the output I get:

--- SCAN RESULTS --- 1. Environment URL (DTT_BASE_URL): https://uat.myWebsiteBBB.com 2. Folder you chose to upload: sites/default 3. Final database: multisite 

Basically, when I run the tests for myWebsiteBBB, it does not load the myWebsiteBBB site data. Instead, it falls back to the default directory. Because of this, everything goes wrong when I execute my test script: /var/www/uat/run_multisite_tests.sh

#!/bin/bash # Ensure we run everything from the directory where this script is located SCRIPT_DIR="$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")" && pwd)" cd "$SCRIPT_DIR" # Define base log directory LOG_BASE_DIR="$SCRIPT_DIR/logs" # Create the logs directory if it doesn't exist mkdir -p "$LOG_BASE_DIR" # Define static log files for this execution MYPAGEAAA_LOG="$LOG_BASE_DIR/uat_myPageAAA.log" MYWEBSITEBBB_LOG="$LOG_BASE_DIR/uat_myWebsiteBBB.log" echo "===================================================" echo "🚀 Starting tests for MyPageAAA..." echo "📄 Logging output to: logs/uat_myPageAAA.log" echo "===================================================" # Run PHPUnit and pipe the output to 'tee' to overwrite the log file ./vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.myPageAAA.xml | tee "$MYPAGEAAA_LOG" MYPAGEAAA_RESULT=${PIPESTATUS[0]} echo "" echo "===================================================" echo "🚀 Starting tests for MyWebsiteBBB..." echo "📄 Logging output to: logs/uat_myWebsiteBBB.log" echo "===================================================" ./vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.myWebsiteBBB.xml | tee "$MYWEBSITEBBB_LOG" MYWEBSITEBBB_RESULT=${PIPESTATUS[0]} echo "" echo "=================== SUMMARY =======================" if [ $MYPAGEAAA_RESULT -eq 0 ]; then echo "✅ MyPageAAA: SUCCESS" else echo "❌ MyPageAAA: FAILED (Check logs/uat_myPageAAA.log)" fi if [ $MYWEBSITEBBB_RESULT -eq 0 ]; then echo "✅ MyWebsiteBBB: SUCCESS" else echo "❌ MyWebsiteBBB: FAILED (Check logs/uat_myWebsiteBBB.log)" fi echo "===================================================" # If any test failed, return an error code for continuous integration systems if [ $MYPAGEAAA_RESULT -ne 0 ] || [ $MYWEBSITEBBB_RESULT -ne 0 ]; then exit 1 fi exit 0 

Has anyone run into this before? Why is PHPUnit ignoring my myWebsiteBBB environment variables and forcing the default site directory? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Could somebody help me and take a look at this question please?
I want to use a Canvas Content Template as default for a Content Type (e.g. "Projects"), BUT be able to override individual nodes.

Example:

• Template has Title + Subtitle + Image
• For one specific Project node, remove subtitle (or completely different layout)

What I've tried:

1. Content Type → Manage Display → "Allow each content item to have its layout customized" is not a visible option
2. Canvas enabled for View Mode
3. Edit Node → looking for "Layout" tab / Canvas override checkbox → nothing visible

Questions:

1. Where exactly does the "Override default template for this node only" checkbox from Issue #3567225 appear?
2. Do I need to create Content Template first (/canvas/content-templates)?
3. Missing permission or feature not in Canvas 1.0?
4. Is there a Workaround like Custom Block per node or other solution?

Forgive this Drupal noob for being blunt, but maybe something good can come out from this seemingly naive question.

Drupal and the newly launched Drupal CMS are powerful and reasonably easy to setup, but they are rather complex to deploy from testing (edit: from a dedicated development environment) to production. They have always been that way, as if suffering from a chronic blind spot, that over time was taken for granted.

Drupal funding comes largely from companies providing (expensive) Drupal hosting services, which include testing (edit: various) environments and migration. In general we are all grateful to these companies. But the harder it is to host Drupal, the more customers these companies have. They may not be discouraging development towards ease of deployment, but they don't seem to incentivize it either. Forking on the other hand would be highly impractical due to a large and complex code base.

If the premise is correct, then I suggest someone within the Drupal community to propose an official goal and funding target, to finance the development of a comprehensive one-click automated deployment functionality with rollback, in both Drupal core and Drupal CMS. Something similar to the Drupal CMS local backup and restore functionality, but remote and more comprehensive.

Edit 1: typo

Edit 2: as noted by some comments, the module "workspaces" (included in core since Drupal 11) can migrate contents between multiple environments within a single instance

Edit 3: the requested cross-instance deployment feature is not provided by other CMS so it's probably unreasonable to request it specifically for Drupal

Edit 4: the official Drupal guide includes a chapter on manual code and content migration at https://www.drupal.org/docs/user_guide/en/install-dev-making.html

How do you deal with Views Exposed Filters and ajax links that cause SEO errors in tools like Semrush?

Or Search Console yelling at you for Views Exposed Filters with param links like /blog?combine=&tid=469&viewsreference%5Bcompressed%5D=eJxdkEEOgyAQRe8yaxdtutLLkLGMOOmABkcbY7x7IVpJuyDw570PCRtYVIRmA4xu9hQUmjCLVN that cause 404s or the dreaded pagination causing Alternate page with proper canonical tag on links like /blog?8f6666e1_page=27&921a62f2_page=9&aa16511d_page=17&page=12?

I have good experience with Drupal and Views but don't see any options to clean these issues up. Im about to output json and use some js script to provide better filtering options. I'd hate to have to hack views to get proper filters because it would feel too much like webflow + finsweet.

Any pros out there have a solution for this or did I Drupal myself into a corner?

If someone has experienced on auto post on social network ? I see there is a social_post module but its stop updating since 2024, I want to create node with image field in Drupal1o, then auto post the image with content on X, Facebook, Linkedin, and maybe Instagram, please suggest if you know about this , Thank you.

I'm new to Drupal and unable to attend the upcoming DrupalCon, but I'd love to get the presentation materials for the Drupal In A Day presentation after it's over. Is that something that's done after the convention is over?

I mean, I recognize that the point is a hands-on experience, and to be fair, I have stumbled my way through setting up a couple of sites, but I'd love to have the official materials to fix my process so that I'm doing it "right" according to actual experts.
Either way, if those materials will be available, how can I get them or request them?

I'm helping to maintain a website for a non profit - Drupal, obviously, Drupal 11.

They have two environments on a hosted site, staging and prod, but they don't have much process in place.

A general question is how to keep two environments in sync, and verify that they're in sync. A complicating issue is that staging at this point lags way behind prod, they've tended to just make changes directly on prod.

I've been trying to diff the database, but this is pretty unwieldy. A further issue is that, even when people make changes on staging first, they don't always do precisely the same thing on prod.

I'd like to lock down both envs so that all changes route through me. That might prove difficult politically though. But the initial idea is to bring staging up to date with prod and then verify that. I'm not clear on the best way to do that though.

hey I was wondering if there exits a module which can display an instagram feed from an account as a block, to be shown on the site (Drupal 11). I know these Moduls exists, my main problem ist, that they only can be linked with one account and I would like to display different instagram feeds from different accounts depending on the sites the block appears.

does somebody know if a Modul like that exist ?
