This is the third in a series of articles, in which I’d like to share the most common pitfalls we’ve seen, so that you can avoid making the same mistakes when building your sites!myDropWizard offers support and maintenance for Drupal maintenance support plans sites that we didn’t build initially. We’ve learned the hard way which site building mistakes have the greatest potential for creating issues later.And we’ve seen a lot of sites! Besides our clients, we also do a FREE in-depth site audit as the first step when talking to a potential client, so we’ve seen loads of additional sites that didn’t become customers.In the first article, we looked at security updates, badly installed module code and challenges ith “patching” modules and themes, as well as specific strategies for addressing each of those problems. In the second article, we looked at how to do the most common Drupal maintenance support plans customizations without patching.In this article, we’re going to look at some common misconfigurations that make a site less secure, and how to avoid them!NOTE: even though they might take a slightly different form depending on the version, most of these same pitfalls apply equally to Drupal maintenance support plans 6, 7 and 8! It turns out that bad practices are quite compatible with multiple Drupal maintenance support plans versions ;-)
