  1. Currently ContentType REST API does not support get/set for ContentType fields.

    For example: I have a content type with a TextField, have set default value for it in the CMS. However, there is no way to get/set it via REST API, which makes it impossible to deploy the contenttype with default values to other environments using the CLI

  2. We need the ability to move an existing component from one content field to another (e.g. from one column to a different column that allows the same component types), not just duplicate it in place. Currently there's no way to relocate a component across fields — the only option is to delete it and fully recreate it from scratch in the destination, re-entering text, re-uploading/re-linking images, and reconfiguring settings each time. This makes routine page reorganization slow and error-prone, especially for content-heavy components like Rich Text blocks or Link Columns.

  3. Currently, copying/cloning is only available at the page level, but admins would benefit from being able to clone/make a copy at the component level, too, within a given page.

  4. Currently when copying a page all nested items have copies created as well, including: 1) child pages but also any 2) shared blocks within the page content. I would like options to skip the "deep copy" that happens for child pages and shared blocks whenever a copy/paste is done. The shared blocks is especially a problem. Since copying a page creates separate duplicates of the shared blocks, it requires manual work to go in and delete the duplicated shared blocks and re-insert the reference to the original. This feels pretty antithetical to the point of shared blocks: keeping a single…

  5. We are currently migrating a large amount of content from another platform into the SaaS CMS. We are building an automated tool for this that uses the REST API. After the tool runs we are aiming for a "Run Report" that displays the link to the content in the previous platform and the Optimizely CMS for comparison. In order to build the link in Optimizely URL we need, what I will call for this request, the "seed id".
    For example: https://app-<tenant>.cms.optimizely.com/ui/cms#context=epi.cms.contentdata:///<seed_id>
    Since this is saved somewhere, it would be helpful if this was exposed when you make a request…

  6. I'm a software developer. I would like to be able to configure the toolbar of the TinyMCE xhtml editor in Optimizely CMS SaaS so it matches the exact wishes of my client. Currently we only have 3 options: minimal, standard and extended. It would be convenient if we could configure the toolbar ourselves. I'm think of an option to insert code snippets, but also simple thinks like support for H2 to H5 but not H1. Basically, I would like to be able to configure everything that TinyMCE allows to be configured out-of-the-box.

  7. When editors insert an image from the Media library into a rich text field, the ‘Alternative description’ field in the Insert/Edit Image dialog is empty. It ignores the Alt text already set on the media item. Editors have to type the same Alt text again every time they use that image in rich text.

    This causes three problems:

    • Duplicated effort: Alt text written once on the asset has to be written again for every use.
    • Accessibility risk: if editors skip the dialog field, the image goes live with no Alt text even though the asset has one.
    • Stale copies: fixing…

  8. We have used the standard OCP Bynder connector (build by Optimizely) to sync the Bynder assets in Optimizely SaaS CMS/Graph. We would like to have the abilities to sync the custom metaproperties from Bynder and to create custom asset filters based on them.

  9. Can we have allowable section types in an Experience Type?

    In a large implementation, we can have several components/blocks enabled as 'Sections' so that they can be directly added to the Experience page.

    The GraphQL query for an Experience becomes very big as we specify more blocks as 'sections' Can we add a feature where a developer can define 'allowable' sections on an experience, so that the graphQL query that is formed contains only a limited allowable types?

  10. For Preview functionality scrolling logic and OPE in the visual preview only works on property fields in Pages and the entire Content Area, but not on its in-line/shared items.

    Using Pages with Content Areas containing nested blocks remains a core part of our implementation and workflow. Not supporting scrolling logic for these in-line items makes On-Page Editing practically unusable for our editors.

    Please update the visual preview so that scrolling logic and focus behavior work properly on in-line and shared items inside Content Areas.

    This is a critical issue for teams who rely on Content Area architectures and need a…

  11. For shared blocks and other content types, we can already query Optimizely Graph to find every instance of a given type. For example:

    query FindByType {
    _Content(where: { _metadata: { types: { in: ["<ContentTypeName>"] } } }) {
    total
    items {
    _metadata { key displayName types url { default } }
    }
    }
    }

    This works because shared blocks are standalone content items with their own key/ContentLink, so they're indexed and queryable like any other content type.

    Local (inline) blocks don't support this. Since they're stored as embedded property data on the parent content item rather than as standalone content…

  12. Inline blocks should honor the "unique value per language" (shared property) setting

    Properties on inline blocks are always stored per language version, regardless of how the property is configured on the content type. A property marked as not unique per language — i.e. intended to be shared across all languages — behaves as language-specific when the block is inline, so editors get divergent values in each language with no warning.

    Reproduction:
    1. Create a content type with two properties: one marked as unique value per language, and one marked as not unique per language (shared).
    2. Create a page with…

  13. Create a feature to allow find/replace functionality so I can easily find words and phrases and, if necessary, replace them with a new word or phrase. This is standard in many CMS.

  14. Concurrent edits to the same page can be silently overwritten (last write wins). Both editors work against a single shared draft, so whoever publishes second overwrites the first with no conflict warning and no merge. The 'currently being edited' notice is dismissable and does not prevent this, there is no field-level locking, and comments are page-level rather than field-level. Request: a conflict warning on save or publish when another user has changed the draft, and/or field-level locking to protect in-progress edits.

  15. When selecting content (for example using Select Content to reference a program), the picker shows content across ALL sites and partners on the platform with no way to filter to a specific site or partner. This creates governance and usability problems for large multi-site portfolios. Request: allow filtering the content picker by site or partner.

  16. The shared-block picker shows every reusable block on the site rather than only the blocks valid for the section or content area being edited. Invalid options appear (some grayed out, some opening to nothing), which makes the picker hard to navigate. Request: filter the picker to show only the blocks allowed in the current context.

  17. We have Multiselect Choice Field with 50+ items. These are rendered in authoring UI as a long list of checkboxes, which takes up a lot of space.

    We would like to see improvements to authoring UI where we show Multiselect Choice fields as a Dropdown CheckedList box. Would be great if we can have search feature in the list, and also Clear All functionality to reset previous selections.

  18. Scenario: An editor creates many news articles and then needs to find them again in the UI.

    Challenges
    Any content, when added, is ordered in the order it was created, not alphabetically. This makes content difficult to find in the content tree.

    You can manually reorder content, but this takes time.

    In PaaS, you can define how child content is ordered; this isn't available in SaaS, and I feel it would be beneficial to bring this feature back, as we are getting a lot of negative feedback from the clients' editors.

    Or, at least in the short term, order the…

  19. Summary

    Customers want the ability to create database backups of their CMS SaaS environments on demand, and to restore an environment to a specific point in time from those backups.

    Problem

    Today, customers have limited control over recovering their SaaS environments after unexpected data changes. Content editors and developers can make mistakes that are difficult to undo: bulk deletions, faulty imports, a bad deployment that corrupts content, or a misconfigured integration overwriting data. When this happens, recovery generally depends on a support request, which adds delay, uncertainty, and risk to the customer's operations. Teams that test migrations, upgrades, or major…

  20. When a page that has child pages is copied, the CMS always copies the entire subtree. There's no way to copy only the parent. Request: when copying a page, let the author choose to copy the parent only, or the parent plus its children. If children are included, let the author choose how many levels deep to copy. We need both: duplicating a single page as a starting point without its subtree, and cloning a section or template tree to a chosen depth to stand up new sites. Related: "Option to do a shallow copy when duplicating (copy/paste) a page"…
