Drupal Now Holds onto Deleted Pages for 30 Days
| by Ian McBride and Enterprise Web Services
We have all done it: accidentally deleted something and then realized a minute later that we still needed part of it. To help alleviate the pain when that happens, Drupal will now keep pages you delete for thirty days before permanently deleting them.

Drupal Web Forms: An Important Update
We previously announced the need to shut down the Drupal 7 forms service on November 1, 2021 because the underlying technology would no longer have security coverage. Due to the continued COVID-19 pandemic, the Drupal Association has extended security coverage for this platform, allowing us to offer you more time to migrate your forms. However, we do not anticipate this will be extended again. So while our timeline has been adjusted, it is still critical that we complete this work and we are looking at ways to provide you with better guidance. To do this, we need your help.
