For developers: what the fix changed

Adds `_csrf_token: 'TRUE'` to the `entity.page.enable` and `entity.page.disable` routes in `page_manager_ui.routing.yml` to protect them against cross-site request forgery.

Also in this release Added Drupal 12 compatibility, converted procedural hooks to object-oriented hooks using attributes, and fixed an issue with outdated tempstore page statuses.

Get in touch

Tell me who you are, what your organisation does, and what you need. That might be a Drupal site that needs looking after, an upgrade to get done before December, or an agency that needs Drupal cover.

If I can help, I'll say so and suggest a call. If I can't, I'll tell you straight away rather than waste your time.

For context: I work mainly with UK membership bodies, charities and research organisations, and with the agencies that look after their websites. Not recruiters.

Or start smaller and connect with me on LinkedIn. That's where I post what I find digging around in charity and grants data, and where the free tools turn up first.
