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 -
Add .NET Counter publication to App Insights on Startup
There are a whole suite of .NET counters available to use to publish to App Insights. This is a low-lift modification that enables us to gain many insights, directly inside of App Insights Metrics, we can utilize to diagnose issues on customers.
This enables us to do performance investigations that otherwise require manual intervention (such as downloading .ETL files and opening them in PerfView or capturing dump files and analyzing them).
We can skip these manual steps and jump write to "close to root causes" by publishing this information. There is little cost and no significant performance degradation associated with…

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

IQI Report - App Insights as the Source of Truth
There are multiple similar functions happening that are similar within Optimizely. They all need to be utilizing the same data a the singular source of truth. They are:
Incident Management, primary data is App Insights.
Deep diagnostics done by Problem Management, primary data is App Insights
App Insights Dashboard
IQI Health Check reporting, primary information (aside from pingdom's availability info which for legal reasons) is Cloud Flare for health information.
The inconsistency of source data causes issues because we cannot make a consistent presentation of the information when the source being utilized is entirely different.

CMS Page Previews
When previewing unpublished pages in the CMS, nested blocks (such as unpublished child blocks within a parent block) do not display correctly at the page level, making it impossible for publishers to see the full layout and content as it will appear when published. This limitation forces the team to rely on the Advanced Review plugin, which does show all nested unpublished content but introduces extra steps and performance issues.

Expose categories in Graph
Categories are part of CMS 13 but they're not supported by Graph yet. We use them for filtering content.

Editor Content Health Dashboard : A personalized, self-service governance view for every content editor in the CMS
As a content editor, I want to see a personalized dashboard when I log in to the CMS that shows me only the content I own that needs attention, so that I can find and fix issues myself, without waiting for someone else to tell me about them.
This dashboard replaces the generic default view in the CMS for all content editors. It does not replace any existing admin tools or reports. The intent is to move content governance from a reactive, admin-led activity into a proactive, editor-led habit. The dashboard is the trigger for that behavioural shift. This is…

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.

IP Address restriction in Cloudflare
It would be great if we could configure an IP Address whitelist in Cloudflare so that we only allow a specific set of source IP Addresses to be allowed to access our DXP instances. This will allow us to block public access to non-production environments

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.

Application Insights - be able to sample or filter logged data
As a customer and implementation partner using DXP I would like either:
- a built-in tool somewhere, in the DXP portal, optimizely or Azure, to be able to filter out unwanted third party dependencies from being logged to the DXP Application Insights,
or
- the permissions to add our own sampling in Application Insights.
Optimizely DXP injects Application Insights (via required headers) and we cannot opt out of that. We don't have any way to sample the data logged to that Application Insights instance.
We get alerts about "DXC - Production Application Insight Daily cap reached" on logged data that is mainly…

Visual Builder: When changing style settings or property values in the outline panel, the left preview panel always refreshes
CMS SaaS: I have just converted my project from using @remkoj/optimizely-cms-nextjs to @optimizely/cms-sdk, but the live preview sync for style settings and property value updates is not as smooth as with @remkoj/optimizely-cms-nextjs.
Previously, my project worked very smoothly in Visual Builder mode. It only updated the element I changed and did not refresh the entire iframe.
However, after switching to @optimizely/cms-sdk, whenever I update anything, it always refreshes the preview iframe, resulting in a very poor user experience.
Is this expected behavior, or am I missing something?CMS 13: We’re seeing the same full iframe refresh issue on Optimizely CMS…

Copied pages to be Draft rather than Published by default
Global Digital Marketing Director.
When I copy and paste a page in the tree its status is always published or maybe it is the same of the page it is being copied from. I want to make the status of that page unpublished by default and then publish is manually later on, without requiring additional development work.
There have been other threads about this in the past eg https://world.optimizely.com/forum/developer-forum/CMS/Thread-Container/2018/5/copy-and-pasted-pages-always-have-published-status/

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 -
Add Custom .NET Core Event Counters to CMS
In order for development teams to identify development issues within their implementation they need to be able to see under the hood of their implementation and inspect the qualitative metrics of their implementation.
Additionally, within our production environment, we should have a variety of metrics available to us to diagnose the quality of an implementation. These metrics would help guide our investigation as the
Currently, this is missing and we have major issues with partner and customer implementations because of it and our MTTR within our production environments is protracted because of the lack of this information.

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.

25 Production Service Buses Broken
We need to define what "working" means for a service bus so that reliability engineering can maintain reliability based on these metrics.
When a service bus no longer functions, reliability engineering should be equipped with the capacity to upgrade service buses in order to meet a component-specific SLA.
We need product management to define what "working" means for a service bus so reliability engineering can respond appropriately when a service bus is "broken" rather than having to go back to PM as though we need a exception for every broken service bus.
We also need monitoring in place to ensure…
