Serialization groups let you choose which properties to include when serializing an object. You might use one group for public API responses and another for admin exports. Symfony 8.2 adds new ways to configure these groups, and lets controllers and Messenger…

File (Field) Paths is stable. 8.x-1.0 is the first stable release since the Drupal 7 one (long may it live), and it does what it has always done: sorts and renames your uploads with token patterns, so you get a filesystem you can read.

If you've been holding off while it sat in RC, you don't need to. It has 215 automated tests and 1287 assertions where beta8 had 21 tests, a safer default for where uploads wait, and a plan for what comes next. It's under active maintenance again.

Core file fields let you choose a directory, and that setting takes tokens. Drupal ships [date:custom:Y]-[date:custom:m] as the default.

In December 2017, on Ægir's tenth birthday, Steven Jones of ComputerMinds joked that within ten years Ægir would be an AI, setting up cat gif websites for its own purposes. With fourteen months left on the clock we checked how the prophecy is doing. In BOA, our Ægir hosting stack, the agent which keeps a server current is called Skynet since a 2012 commit meant to replace boring welcome messages, the installer still pretends to charge your credit card as it did in 2010, and the family named after a Norse sea giant and his doorman, Ægir and Eldir, grew a Barracuda, an Octopus and this summer a Kraken. Since 2025 the Ægir 3 projects on drupal.org are maintained by us, after the prophet himself asked, fairly enough, whether they should be marked obsolete, and in 2026 the stack is built with AI tools: eleven stable releases against three last year, for Drupal, Drupal CMS and Backdrop sites. The AI stays on our desks and nothing on your server guesses, so only the cat gifs are late.

Not every Drupal AI update calls for the same response. Recent releases may require teams to rebuild search indexes, update agent configuration or keep experimental Views changes under close human review.

In Symfony, IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY is the strongest check about how users logged in. However, it tells you how the session started, not when. A user who logged in with their password eight hours ago and left the laptop unlocked is still fully authenticated,…
