Non-profit archive migrates a custom system into Drupal core, completes file migration over Christmas and launches the new site January 1 2019; content model stores 4–8 hour video interviews with full transcripts, short clips and a distilled witness story, with 4,000 published and ~4,000 unpublished records requiring per-witness publishing permissions. Community builds a quick publishing layer in a week; traffic rises from ~300 to 3,000 daily (peak 14,000). A custom language-negotiator hack solves multilingual fallbacks across 15 languages.
