Quick Edit for Images
Currently, in the PaaS CMS, with Blocks, there is a Quick Edit option on the context menu when you click on a block in a content area. The opens a modal that allows the author to edit the block right there, and even publish, without having to load a whole new page in the CMS. This is nice because it allows for much quicker editing.
We sometimes have cases where a project wants to store a lot of information with each image. More than just a title and copyright. They would like to be able to use Quick Edit on…

UI Change to Distinguish Prod from Preprod and Int
I've been burned a few times by publishing content on the wrong environment, e.g. publishing a change in a test page on Integration only to learn I was actually on Production. Woops!
And it's not just me. I know of times our clients have done this, and other members of our team.
Can I suggest some sort of UI indicator (other than just the URL) to indicate which environment you're on?
- Maybe you could output the name of the environment in the header?
- Maybe you could you update the 'Publish Changes' button to read 'Publish Changes to {ENVIRONMENT}'?

Add page or block deletion to approval workflow
My role: Expert Service Application Engineer.
We’re working on adding a deletion workflow similar to the existing approval workflow.
Outcome: We need the ability to configure an approval process not only for publishing content, but also for deleting it.8 votes -
Support Newer .NET WebApplicationBuilder
I would like to use the newer WebApplicationBuilder / IHostApplicationBuilder introduced in .NET 6 to initialize the CMS instead of the .NET Core 3 method of using IHostBuilder, because .NET Aspire does not support IHostBuilder. The ConfigureCmsDefaults method does not support WebApplicationBuilder, and even though the following code will compile, the CMS is not usable:
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
builder.Host.ConfigureCmsDefaults();4 votes -
HSTS on the root domain
We are experiencing some redirection issues we have no control over as they are done in the root domain.
http://oldsite.com redirects to https://www.oldsite.com then finally to https://www.newsite.com
The redirection should be as follows:
http://oldsite.com -> https://oldsite.com -> https://www.newsite.com
Please update Optimzely’s configuration to do these redirects properly

Regenerate Content Graph keys and secrets through Paas portal
Clients should have the ability to regenerate Content Graph keys and secrets in the self-service Paas portal.
6 votesGood news - this idea is now being explored by our product and design teams. We’re researching potential solutions and scoping out what an implementation might look like. We’ll share updates here as our thinking evolves.

Implement SRI attributes for injected JavaScript & Styles
The Optimizely PAAS CMS platform has multiple touchpoints where scripts are injected into the frontend UI. Examples include Optimizely Forms, Content Recommendations, Search & Navigation etc.
When these scripts are injected into the UI, they are not added with a Sub-resource Integrity attribute. An SRI check allows us to instruct the browser that it should not load a tampered version of a JS or CSS file and can protect users from man in the middle attacks. You can read more about SRI here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity
This is a commonly reported issue in penetration tests and clients are becoming increasingly more security…

Site-specific Wastebaskets for multisite
As of now all sites share the same Wastebasket in a multisite. We need site-specific wastbaskets so that only the editors with access to a site (and wastebasket) can go to the site-specific wastebasket and delete content. Closing in to almost 100 sites with extreme amounts of data, our wastebasket is not possible to navigate - even for admins.

Access restricted for Specific user with expert import
We need to configure roles in Optimizely to grant specific users permission to use the Import and Export functionality.
Access must be restricted based on the users’ assigned business units. For example, if a user is assigned access only to Asteco, they should be able to perform import and export activities strictly within the business units (e.g., Asteco and Pactive) aligned with their permissions.
Users must not have visibility of or access to any other projects beyond their assigned business units.

Disable Allowed Content Types Description in CMS 12 Edit View
In CMS 12 Episerver Edit interface we noticed a new feature: above all ContentArea fields, a description appears listing allowed content types (Refer attachment).We’d like to have this removed. It seems to add more confusion than clarity for our editors. We already enforce allowed content types using the [AllowedTypes] attribute in code, so displaying the full list in the UI—especially including unrelated options like Episerver Forms elements—is unnecessary and distracting.
This description wasn’t present in CMS 11, and we would prefer to maintain that cleaner editor experience.9 votes -
Ability to smoke-test more than 1 site during smooth deploy (slot domains)
Ability to smoke-test more than 1 site during smooth deploy (slot domains)
As a CMS developer and QA specialist we want to be able to smoke-test multiple sites so that we can detect potential issues on all our sites during deployment with DXP Cloud Platform to our multi-site CMS platform.
When we deploy to PREP/PROD we get a temporary SLOT to run our smoke-tests against. For example:
https://projectidprep-slot.dxcloud.episerver.net/
https://projectidprod-slot.dxcloud.episerver.net/
These are the default URL provided by Optimizely and are configured on the first website. We would like to be able to smoke-test multiple sites on the SLOT instance.
We could…

Improve “Select All” behaviour for lazy loaded export
We’ve received reports from our users regarding confusion when exporting form submissions.
Currently, when users click the header “select all” checkbox, the label shows:
“All 25 posts are selected.”Because only 25 submissions are initially loaded, the checkbox correctly selects only these items. However, users often interpret this label as indicating that all existing submissions (e.g., all 69) have been selected - even though the remaining items have not yet been loaded via lazy loading. This misunderstanding has led to incorrect or incomplete exports.
To reduce user confusion and better reflect what is selected, we would like to request an…

Customer Feedback: Improve CMS UI visibility for Optimizely Graph synchronization status
I am a Technical Support Engineer submitting this feedback on behalf of a customer. The customer is using Optimizely CMS and relies on Optimizely Graph to synchronize content between the CMS and the search index.
Currently, the CMS shows synchronization status only under the Options menu. The text labels such as "Not changed since last publish" or "Synchronize with Optimizely Graph" are not visually prominent. Editors cannot quickly determine whether a page is already synchronized, out of sync, or requires re-synchronization. This makes it difficult for editors to know the current state of content without navigating menus.
The customer suggests…

Insert an image into rich text editor from DAM
When the DAM Asset Picker is installed to the CMS, content authors should have the ability to "insert image" into a rich text field from the DAM, in addition to inserting from the CMS media library or uploading a new image.

Order of content fields in Content Graph _fulltext property
When a text field is indexed by Content Graph in the _fulltext property, the values in the fields are appearing out of order from how they are configured in the CMS, where nested content is appearing before outer container content.
For example, our page contains an accordion block. The accordion block has a content area which allows topics blocks. The topics blocks contain a rich text field.
When querying graph the _fulltext property shows the values of the indexed content in this order:
Topics block content
Topics block name
Accordion block name
Container block nameWe would expect to see…

Support for Including File Attachments in Optimizely Forms Submission Emails
By default, Optimizely Forms do not send uploaded files as attachments in submission emails. Instead, the system provides links to the files stored in the Optimizely asset library. These links are only accessible to CMS-authenticated users, which limits their usability for external recipients.
Custom Enhancement Possibility:
It is currently possible to customize the SendEmailAfterSubmissionActor to include file attachments, as demonstrated in this community blog post: https://world.optimizely.com/blogs/kennyg/dates/2025/8/sending-email-with-attachments-with-optimizely-forms-in-2025/However, as stated in this blog post, this requires duplicating built-in logic, since SendEmailAfterSubmissionActor does not expose an integration point that allows developers to hook in and add attachments to the message.
Proposed Improvement:…
