Avoid These 5 Common Mistakes When Upgrading Your Drupal Site

Saroj K. continues his Acquia Drupal Developer Certification preparation series on WeeklyDrupal.com with Module 2.1, which focuses on content modeling. The post explains how to properly structure content types, use fields, and create entity relationships that reflect real-world data needs—rather than presentation logic. Saroj walks through key site building concepts from an exam perspective, emphasising reuse, scalability, and clear data relationships.

Topics include field cardinality, entity reference usage, taxonomy vs content types, and revision support for governance. The post also flags common mistakes to avoid like flattening relationships into plain text or over-modeling with too many types. With practical examples and exam insights, this module is essential for both certification candidates and anyone who wants to build maintainable Drupal sites.
