ICYMI: if you use #drupal and a Bootstrap-based subtheme, how do you choose between /bootstrap_barrio, /bootstrap5, /radix, and /bootstrap, /artisan, and /ui_suite_bootstrap?!



Why do we have 6 well-supported Bootstrap 5-compatible base themes? Wouldn’t it make sense for the maintainers to work together on “one Bootstrap base theme to rule them all”?

In your #Drupal controller, when you pass a User object to a Twig template, it's available there as an AccountProxy object, not a User object.

But I need access to the custom fields, so I need to preprocess or inject all field values into the template manually?

Both seem a silly amount of work just to inject a User object into a template.

For now a custom Twig filter that loads a user by id works, but also seems silly.

Am I missing something?

Take a few minutes and fill out the annual #drupal developer survey - it took me about 10 minutes and is available in many languages.

Survey closes April 20.

One use of the results is to Drupal event organizers in determining topics that are of interest to the community.

Hey #Drupal friends:

Often you can no longer change a machine_name value once the form is saved.

Sometimes you *can* as long as the thing's machine name hasn't been used (like a list field option).

Is there any guidance on this? Recorded best practices? A name for distinguishing the two practices?

Looking to describe this with the appropriate terminology.

Thanks a bundle!
