Drupal 8: Making your website the best it can be

Drupal 8: Making your website the best it can be

old and new versions of asctech website
  • It’s mobile-friendly!
  • It’s accessible!
  • It’s Drupal 8 and it’s coming to enhance your area’s website!

The ASC Web Services team adopted Drupal 6 in 2010 to create a more uniform and accessible web presence for the college. Since then, nearly 200 websites have adopted the ASC template, from large 300-page sites like The Department of Mathematics' to 20-page informational websites to everything in between.

Now, the ASCTech Web Services team has started migration from Drupal 7 to 8, beginning with the asctech.osu.edu website.

“We started with the ASCTech site because we knew it and it’s small,” said Dale. “We learned a lot in the ASCTech migration process that we can use to make other website transitions go smoothly.”

“I was happy to assist with, or should I say, 'Be the guinea pig for' migration,” said ASCTech web content manager Doug Dangler. “It was a really smooth experience. Eva Dale and Chris Wallace were great at communicating what I needed to do and it was done quickly and painlessly.”
