It sends the request through the site's configured Drupal AI provider, validates the returned Webform definition, and saves the resulting form. Review the generated change before using the form. Module name/project name: AI Webform Generator (ai_webform_generator) Brief history Created on 2 July 2026 by chaitanyadessai (Chaitanya R Dessai). The current stable release is 1.0.2, released on 3 July 2026, and supports Drupal ^10 || ^11. Maintainership Appears actively maintained: Drupal.org lists an update on 24 July 2026. Maintainers: zeeshan_khan and chaitanyadessai. (Specbee) Security coverage: Yes. Stable releases are covered by Drupal's security advisory policy. Test coverage: Yes. Version 1.0.2 includes unit, kernel, and functional tests for prompt building, JSON validation, settings, route access, Webform building, and optional CAPTCHA elements. Documentation: Yes. The project page and module README cover requirements, configuration, usage, security considerations, and supported field types. Issues: 1 open issue, with 0 open bug reports (7 issues total). Usage stats: 1 site reports using this module. Module features and usage Creates complete Webforms and updates existing Webforms in place from natural-language prompts. Supports common Webform elements, including text, email, telephone, number, date, select, checkbox, radio, range, password, hidden, and managed-file elements. Validates the AI response before applying the Webform definition. Uses the existing Drupal AI provider configuration; API keys are not stored in this module's configuration. Provides configurable model, temperature, output-token, and per-user request limits to balance output quality and provider spend. Requires trusted users with both the generator permission and ordinary Webform edit access when changing an existing form. AI-Generate Notes, Review, and Recipe (used for testing) https://github.com/jrockowitz/drupal_playground/tree/main/recipes/drupal_playground_webform_ai AI-Generated Assessment Technical: The module separates AI generation, prompt building, JSON validation, and Webform construction into Drupal services. It uses the site's configured Drupal AI provider, validates a limited allowlist of Webform element types before saving, and exposes model, temperature, output-token, and per-user request-limit settings. Access and error handling: Generation requires its own permission, and updating an existing Webform also requires normal Webform update access. A per-user flood limit constrains provider spend; failures are logged, with detailed upstream errors shown only to generator administrators. Code quality: Version 1.0.2 uses strict types and separates form, service, validation, and persistence responsibilities. It includes unit, kernel, and functional coverage for core behavior. This assessment is a code review of the released module, not a security audit. Implementation: The module creates new Webforms and updates supported fields of existing Webforms in place, but saves the generated definition immediately without a preview, diff, or approval screen. Usefulness: The module is useful for quickly drafting straightforward Webforms and iterating on common field changes when a site builder reviews the result. Complex, highly customized, or regulated forms need especially careful manual review before publication. How to use it: Configure a chat-capable provider, select an existing Webform or choose to create one, describe the fields and validation in plain English, submit the request, and then review the saved Webform. For example, create a disposable contact Webform and ask the generator to add a required telephone field while preserving the existing fields. AI-generated source code: The module's runtime use of AI and its code style cannot establish whether its source was AI-generated or AI-assisted. Its public project metadata does not make an authorship claim, so this is unknown. Possible improvements: Add a preview/diff and explicit approval before saving; broaden support for advanced Webform structures and handlers; add optional, privacy-conscious prompt and response audit logs; and expand regression coverage for complex Webform updates. Next steps for adopters: Restrict generation to trusted roles, begin with a low request limit, test representative prompts outside production, and review every generated field, validation rule, confirmation message, and permission before publishing.

There's a module for that Module name/project name: Generate (Social Media) Image Brief history How old: Created by tfranz of Germany on 22 April 2022 Versions available: 1.x-dev, 2.0.0-beta2, published a few weeks ago by our own Martin Anderson-Clutz Maintainership Minimally (although now slightly more actively) maintained No Security coverage (yet) Passing GitLab CI tests Well fleshed out README for docs Number of open issues: 8 open issues, 0 of which are bugs against the current branch, but there are lots of feature requests Usage stats: 1 site reports using this module Module features and usage GSMI requires an image style that uses a "Text Overlay" effect — this comes from the Image Effects module and lets you burn tokenized (or static) text onto an image. Normally, when Drupal generates an image style derivative, there's no entity in scope — it's just processing a file — so a token like [node:title] would resolve to nothing. GSMI's real contribution is the glue: when it builds a derivative for a specific node, it swaps in the node-resolved text before generating the image. That's what makes entity-aware tokens work inside an effect that otherwise only sees global tokens. Once the image style exists, GSMI's settings form lets you pick a source image field on the node — an image field or a media-reference field — plus a fallback image for when that's empty. From there it generates the styled derivative from that source image, for any node of any content type that has the field. Finally, GSMI exposes its own token — [node:generate-style], with optional style/field overrides — so you're not locked into the one global style/field pair configured in the settings form. I used that to drop the generated image into Metatag's og_image field for the Session content type on the MidCamp site, getting us dynamically generated session images.. A couple of gotchas we hit setting this up: Text Overlay's layout options have some bugs, and not filling out all of the options will result in an image library error. The bigger one: GSMI names the generated derivative file after the source image's filename — extension included — not after whatever format the image style actually outputs. If you try to convert an image to WebP you might get a WebP image with a JPG extension. BUUUUT - LinkedIn still doesn't support WebP (at least as per their documentation, so it's still in 2026 not safe to use WebP for a universal og:image. https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a521928

    Talking Drupal #562 - Acquia Fair Trade Initiative

    Today we are talking about Supporting Open Source, Acquia, and The Acquia Fair Trade Initiative with guest James Sims. We'll also cover Image Effects as our module of the week.

I want more!". Have you said "I'd like to mirror, filter, and convolute an image in Drupal - all at the same time". If so, you're in luck. Let me introduce you to our module of the week: Module name/project name: Image Effects Brief history How old: Created by Drupal user mondrake of Italy on 17 September 2015. It's also the successor to the ImageCache Actions module, which was created all the way back in 2008. Versions available: It has a 4.0.0 version available with Drupal 10 and 11 support, and a 5.0.0 version for Drupal 11.3 and above. Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation It has a full README with details about the available image styles and whether they are supported by the GD or ImageMagick PHP libraries. Number of open issues: 35 open issues, 3 of which are bugs against the current branch. (The current branch has only been out a few months, and many of the open issues against prior branches seem to still be relevant.) Usage stats: 35,196 sites report using this module, with most still on the 3.x or 4.x branches. (its predecessor, ImageCache Actions, still has over 25,000 active installs) Module features and usage The module is pulled in just like any other, with composer require and then enable via drush or the UI. Once it's installed there is a very basic settings page, but most folks won't use much on there. The power of Image Effects comes when you go to Config > Media > Image Styles and then edit an Image Style. Once Image Effects is enabled, you'll see over two dozen additional effects in the list. These effects range from simple to complex. Interestingly, many of the effects that were so amazing 15 years ago are now doable with CSS. Still, there are some incredibly powerful filters. Side note: I'd strongly recommend Aubrey Sambor's recent talk from Drupal Camp Asheville, "You Don't Need JS for That", and her prior talk "Color in CSS" to learn a ton of things you didn't know about CSS effects. The basics like Color Shift, Contrast, Mirror, Rotate, and more are there if you'd like to do these natively. More advanced filters like Sharpen, Blur, and Convolute let you make more complex modifications to images. "Convolution" is the process of applying n-dimensional matrixes to images to create effects such as blurring, sharpening, and edge detection. Try it out on https://anna.engineering/Image-Convolution-Playground/src/ Lastly, you can create advanced image styles with ImageMagick arguments, create Text overlays using the power of Drupal tokens, or even develop your own Image Effects guided by the incredibly detailed DEVELOPING.md file included with the module.

There's a site template for that. Module name/project name: Summit Site Template Brief history How old: created in June 2026 by yours truly Versions available: 1.0.0, released yesterday Maintainership Actively maintained Security and test coverage Documentation some in the repo we'll talk about later Number of open issues: no open issues, though there are a couple of open issues on the Event Platform Starter, from which Summit was created Module features and usage We've talked before on this podcast about the Event Platform that grew out of an initiative from the Event Organizers Working Group. The goal is to remove friction for anyone organizing a Drupal camp or similar event in creating a website that sets them up for success The Event Platform was created before Recipes were a thing in the Drupal-verse, even though it was initially built in ways that were similar to recipes A couple of years ago, I started working on the Event Platform Starter recipe to help spin up a fully-built event website in a single step. That ran into some technical complexities, so it ended up being being a time-saver, but still required a number of manual steps As the newer concept of site templates took shape, I could see that the Event Platform ecosystem had the necessary elements to become a site template, in particular a theme and a battle-tested a content architecture I ended up needing to decouple the configuration and the functional code that had previously been in Event Platform. The configuration would reside solely in the site template, so the functional code was moved to a new project, Event Platform Helper Along the way, there have been a number of significant changes: Canvas integration for a fully customizable homepage, also a set of Canvas components to allow building new, custom layouts, a new, custom cache context, improved management of event information, and more Now, you set everything up with a single click in the Drupal CMS installer. There's an open issue to get it into the Drupal CMS installer by default, but today it's just a composer require away The repo does also include an AGENTS.md and CONTENT-STRUCTURE.md files, to help human or AI agents who want to work a site built using Summit to understand the initial state of the content architecture it provides, as well as the different logical components and how to troubleshoot them, individually or in combination

Drupal core 11.4 delivers all that and more Module name/project name: Drupal core 11.4 Brief history How old: created on July 1 2026 by catch of Tag1 Changes Performance improvements When Drupal 11.3 was released, we talked about what a massive performance jump it represented, the biggest improvement in a decade. 11.4 has done it again! Database queries are reduced by half, across a range of requests due to optimizations in how entity fields are loaded. Overall, that represents a nearly ⅔ improvement for database and cache lookups on a cold cache compared to Drupal 11.0 or 10.6 Entity listing queries have also been refactored to use fewer table joins, reducing slow queries. Additionally, the link field introduces a resolvable_uri property and token, which returns a ready-to-use front-end link (like /#main-content) right out of the API instead of raw internal URIs, which will be a huge benefit for anyone using Drupal for decoupled and JSON:API-based use cases Applying recipes in Drupal 11.4 is significantly faster, reportedly twice as fast, and that includes installing Drupal CMS Drupal now supports Brotli compression, which should yield 15-25% better compression of CSS and JS assets Security Drupal 11.4 offers a new password hashing algorithm, argon2id, that will become the default in Drupal 12 later this year Also, the drupal/core-recommended package no longer strictly locks minor versions for critical dependencies like Guzzle, Twig, or Symfony Polyfills, making it easier to immediately receive important security updates Drupal's default robots.txt now blocks well-behaved search crawlers from indexing search queries, helping to solve a potential source of traffic overload on sites using faceted search Developer experience There's been a significant shift towards the adoption of PHP Attributes in recent Drupal releases, and 11.4 is no exception You can now define application routes directly within your PHP controller and form classes using the Symfony #[Route] attribute. This drastically reduces the need to jump back and forth into *.routing.yml files The new #[Bundle] attribute allows developers to define bundle classes directly, eliminating the need to write old-school entity_type_info or entity_type_info_alter hook implementations. All core .theme and .theme-settings.php files have been moved entirely to PHP classes. Support for legacy .theme files will be dropped in Drupal 13. Furthermore, dozens of core .module files have been fully converted into clean PHP classes Front controllers now leverage the symfony/runtime component to isolate bootstrapping logic from request handling, preparing the Drupal core architecture for advanced environments like FrankenPHP, known for its blazing-fast performance, among other features Drupal 11.4 introduces a native, extensible command-line tool (./vendor/bin/dr) built in partnership with Drush maintainers. This kicks off a transitional period where Drush commands will gradually be migrated to the core native binary Also, the new HttpKernelUiHelperTrait for kernel tests lets developers make mock HTTP requests and assertions without running the full Drupal site installer. This allows many traditional browser tests to be rewritten as much faster kernel tests Editor experience Drupal 11.4 includes the new Default Admin theme, a version of the popular Gin admin theme, now in core The Navigation module is now enabled by default, replacing the legacy toolbar CKEditor once again has a fullscreen button available without a contrib add-on, allowing editors to fully immerse themselves in a WYSIWYG element's content, great for working on long-format pieces Deprecations The initial 11.4.0 release actually removed a number of core recipes. They were since restored in an 11.4.1 release, but they are deprecated and will be removed from Drupal 12 Also on their way out are a number of modules, including Ban, Contact, Field Layout, History, Migrate Drupal and its UI, Search, Settings Tray, Shortcut, Telephone, Toolbar, and a flag module called layout_builder_expose_all_field_blocks. For themes, Claro, Stable 9, and Olivero are all deprecated, and will be moved from core. We'll include the meta issue about these deprecation in the show notes, and if any of these are important to you, it's worth tracking where they are on the path of moving to contrib
