• Is there and easy way of porting a site from d7 to d9?

  I would be interested in some good migration tools, paid ones are also ok. I found a post about this on drupal.org, but it didn't seem like an easy process. It is a multilanguage site with many content types, and a totally custom theme. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Is there any nice group, where I can ask questions, when I get stuck and recieve some guidance instead of crytics?

  You got already good advice, but wanted to point the guide of drupal.org where you can see some tools listed with instructions and channels https://www.drupal.org/community/contributor-guide/reference-information/talk/tools. Source: almost 3 years ago

• MAMP issue after Pro trial ended

  There is a service call GitPod that provides a temporary container Drupal environment. If you are familiar with what is going on around the future of how Drupal modules will eventually be offered up, you will likely have seen the "Project Browser" module as a contrib demo of the approach. It is used for people to give feedback to the developers. So they set up the typical 'SimplyTestMe' but also a GitPod... Source: about 3 years ago

• Best Modules for Product and Recipe?

  For reviews, it depends entirely on what you mean by "review". I believe core has a simple comment module, although it may have been deprecated for D9? There are likely many review-style modules on drupal.org that might work, or if you just want to link out to third-party reviews then it could just be a repeating-value link field on the Product content type.

• Leadership?

  They should also use standards tools like Github. The drupal.org platform was certainly impressive 10 years ago, today it's a pain to use it. They ducktape it with gitlab, but really it sucks to have to read documentation to simply do a pull request. Source: about 3 years ago

• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (September 2025)

  I’m working on Pagecord. Blogging as easy as sending an email. https://pagecord.com Pagecord is free with a very full-featured (and cheap!) premium package. Email newsletter, custom domains, privacy-respecting analytics etc. Source is available. Ruby on Rails: https://github.com/lylo/pagecord. - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Typepad Is Shutting Down

  Wow that's an incredible amount of views. And an incredible shame at the same time. If you want to try out my app Pagecord (https://pagecord.com) I'd happily try and help you migrate over. Biggest problem is the death of the *.typepad.com domain though. I wonder if they'd be willing to add 301 redirects for a year or three? One can hope... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: Small bootstrapped founders – how do you prioritize resource allocation?

  I don't have a plan for https://pagecord.com. Life's too short. YOLO, etc. My app is relatively feature rich right now so I would say I spend a lot more time on marketing. I still add features of course (and they are a form of marketing), but with AI help these take a lot less time than they used to. Trying to figure out distribution channels, build awareness and so on is the hard yards in 2025. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: If not Kubernetes, what do you use to run your apps?

  I have a single server running https://pagecord.com. I use Hatchbox on a Hetzner server. I wrote a bit about it here: https://olly.pagecord.com/migrating-the-pagecord-rails-app-from-aws-to-hetzner-373cf4cc I have plenty of paying customers but I still think K8s would be complete overkill at this stage. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
