Starting with Drupal 8, composer is used to manage web site dependencies and to download packages to the server. A Drupal and CiviCRM website requires 100s of packages to provide the large set of functional components. Composer simplifies the process of determining which versions of packages will all work together appropriately, and fetching all of them and putting them in the right place in the code base.

CiviCRM Form Builder is a powerful and rapidly-evolving CiviCRM feature which has seen major advancements in each of the past several versions. This extension allows site builders to create custom forms to filter custom SearchKit searches, create simple contact creation forms, and much more.

It’s time to celebrate! On Day 1 of Drupal 11, CiviCRM will have an official release supporting it. CiviCRM will officially support Drupal 11 as of CiviCRM 5.75, due to be released in the coming days. CiviCRM 5.75 is also the next Extended Security Release (ESR) version which will receive security updates for the next 6 months. Drupal 11 beta1 is out, and the stable version is expected to be released by the end of July.

Skvare is pleased to announce a beta2 release of CiviCRM Entity 3.0. 

New in this release is support for Drupal 9! If you are considering a new website or upgrading your Drupal 7 site, the time is right to build with Drupal 9. We are building websites with CiviCRM, CiviCRM Entity and Drupal 9 now. 

Long Term Support (LTS) releases of CiviCRM are versions that are maintained for use by organizations for multi-year periods of time. The first official version of CiviCRM released as a LTS was version 4.4 and announced in October of 2014.

Does this version...?

Fix security vulnerabilities?

no

Change the database schema?

no

Alter the API?

no

Require attention to configuration options?

Today, Skvare has released a new version of CiviCRM Entity, 2.0-beta11.  This release contains a new feature, an admin configuration page which allows site administrators to disable exposure of entity types to Drupal.

If you are a Drupal developer coming new to CiviCRM, it can be a bit of a "culture shock" to realize that CiviCRM is not your typical Drupal module.

CiviCRM Entity 2.0-beta7 has been released.

Pick it up now at the Drupal.org Project Page

Changes since beta6:

There are two powerful modules used in the Drupal world for creating fast custom searches. Search API is a framework which provides an interface for site builders to create custom searches on any entity known to Drupal. It supports several search backends, including Apache Solr and native database search.
