In a recent Drupal 8 project, we dealed with a multilingual translation issue: we need to translate the usual "View more" text on the Content: Link to Content field in Views.

After doing some research, we found a workaround like this:

1. Instead of using Content: Link to content, let's add two fields: Content: Path and Global: Custom text.

Note: the Content: Path field provides us a corresponding URL alias for each language.

2. On Global: Custom text, please enter:

<a href="{{ path }}">{% trans %} View more {% endtrans %}</a>

3. Now the text "...

You may already be familiar with Amazon S3, the most popular solution for cost effective storage services nowadays. You will need it when you are looking for:

  • Low cost storage: it happens to be my case, when I implemented a Drupal based web app for a local governmental authority. The app is used by branches from all provinces of the country, and they usually upload a large amount of data (documents, photos, scans etc ...) regularly. Using the app server's storage is too expensive. So I converted the Drupal file system to Amazon S3, leaving only the core and modules on the app server.
  • Fast loading: many bloggers have used S3 to store their photos, videos, audios and files, for better serving their readers. As customers are from all over the world, saving the multimedia content to S3 will let them access them much faster.
  • And many more benefits

In this tutorial, we will show you how to convert the Drupal 7 & 8 file system to Amazon S3 and sync all existing files to S3 Storage.

1. Preparation

You will need to run several client programs like drush and awscli. So if your site is on a shared hosting, you are not able to install and execute them. Pls download it to your local host and configure it there. After that you can upload to your shared hosting.

The techniques that I use in this tutorial are:

  • Amazon S3 ofcourse.
  • Drush:  command line shell and Unix scripting interface for Drupal, very convenient and useful.
  • AWSCLI: the Amazon Web service client tool, I use it to sync data to S3.
  • S3FS: the Drupal mod...

When you share a post of your Drupal site via Facebook, it will automatically detect the images of your node for you to choose. But sometimes, it does not detect any images, or the detected images are not what you want. How can you deal with that?

An easy method is uploading the main image manually. That's fine, because you are the owner of the site, you know which ones to choose. However, if your readers share that piece of content and it has an ugly image, it does not look attracting at all.

In this tutorial, we show you how to set meta data for your Drupal nodes so the correct images will be chosen, when you share them via Facebook.
