Upgrade 6.2.x β†’ 6.3.x removes webform_shortcuts β†’ causes missing-module errors during updb/cim

Created on 2 September 2025, 19 days ago

Summary
Upgrading from Webform 6.2.x to 6.3.x removes the webform_shortcuts submodule. Sites that previously had it end up with stale configuration (core.extension and related config), which causes errors during database updates and configuration import.

Steps to reproduce

Site on Webform 6.2.x with webform_shortcuts previously present.

Run composer require drupal/webform:^6.3@beta.

Run database updates (drush updb) and configuration import (drush cim).

Observed behavior

updb reports that webform_shortcuts is marked as installed in core.extension but the code is missing.

cim fails with: β€œwebform_shortcuts cannot be installed because it is not present.”

Expected behavior

A clean upgrade path without manual intervention, or explicit guidance that removes/cleans up leftover webform_shortcuts configuration during the upgrade.

Request
Please provide a pre-/post-update hook or upgrade instructions that automatically remove stale webform_shortcuts config (e.g., from core.extension and its settings) to prevent cim failures.

Note
A Bootstrap 3 deprecation notice also appears during the upgrade, but that seems unrelated to this specific issue.
