Update

Update path

Until Display Builder is stable, update path is provided as best effort and cannot be guaranteed.

Update problems are mitigated by the fact that Display Builder stores its configuration in Drupal configuration system and fields for entity overrides. See internals for more details.

Currently a temporary working storage is leveraging Drupal State API to store Display work in progress and history.

Unpublished Display

Display Builder module update will always delete this working storage, all work-in-progress and history will be permanently lost!

Updating Display Builder

  • Ensure any Displays you are working on are published
  • Export your Drupal configuration
  • Backup your website
  • Update Display Builder
  • Run Drupal update, see Updating Modules

Troubleshooting

If something goes wrong with the update, restore your website and:

  • Export your Drupal configuration
  • Uninstall Display Builder and all its sub-modules
  • Update Display Builder module, see Updating Modules
  • Import your configuration (this should install Display Builder)
