  1. As an editor using the Language Manager add-on to translate from one master language to another, I'd like to select individual properties to EXCLUDE from translation. Certain properties (e.g. URL, title etc) may contain key terms, names etc that should not be translated.

    Note: This is slightly different from another feedback idea;
    https://feedback.optimizely.com/forums/966081-cms-paas-content-management-system/suggestions/49891608-language-manager-won-t-let-you-exclude-terms-tran

    though both these ideas would solve the same core problem.

  2. I am a senior developer. We have been facing this issue where when we remove properties of block type the site fails to start and throws database timeout during ModelSyncInitialization. This happens even when a single property of block type is removed.
    We have an open ticket with support and have tried a few solutions but the only option that works is to increase the DatabaseQueryTimeout to an hour or so.

  3. In the Languages gadget (Language Manager add-on), users have the option to duplicate content when creating a new language branch. During this process, the “Duplicate content” dialog presents checkboxes for:

    Add all children

    Add related content(s)

    These options are useful for administrators but pose a risk when used by editors who may not fully understand the implications. For example, an editor in our organization mistakenly duplicated a section with over 800 nodes, resulting in around 500 duplicated blocks. This caused significant manual cleanup and unnecessary content clutter.

    We would like the ability to restrict visibility or access to…

  4. CMS UI version 12.18.0 introduced a new dashboard with a "Workflow status" section. This section can display thousands of pages in some environments, each with multiple elements. This can result in a bloated and less usable interface, potentially affecting performance and user experience.

    We would like to request the ability to:

    1. Clear or limit the number of items displayed in the "Workflow status" section

    2. Filter the displayed items based on specific criteria (e.g., content type, date, language, or user)

    3. Customize or replace the section with a custom implementation if needed

    Providing more control or configuration options for this section would…

  5. We need to stop few words from search or indexing. For example, in case of search term 'having a baby' also brings results with 'a' which does not make sense. We are looking for a similar feature like 'synonyms'. We have been advised in the ticket reference 1748761 (https://support.optimizely.com/hc/en-us/requests/1748761) to raise a feature request to bring this feature back as its currently deprecated. We are from Publicis Sapient and working for St Luke's digital transformation project.

    The below document does not have enough details in the API call with PUT method. Also it says the feature is deprecated.

  6. Is there a way to track or identify the user who modified the access rights in Episerver/CMS? It appears that someone has changed the access permissions using the 'Set Access Rights' feature.
    We need to determine who made these changes to ensure proper access control and prevent unauthorized modifications. Is there any audit log, system event tracking, or CMS activity history that can help us trace the user responsible for this action? Any insights or recommendations on how to retrieve this information would be greatly appreciated.

  7. As a content editor I want to be able to move content (for example a page in the CMS tree. When I do this at present a new version is created but this is merged with the previous update for that content. I want a new version to be created and the old version to be retained in order that the true date/time and editor of any changes is visible from the version history.
    For example:
    * Editor A creates and publishes a page on 1 Sept 2024
    * Editor B updates and publishes the same page on 15 Oct…

  8. In the Settings area anyone with the "CMSAdmin" or "Content Admins" has access to the full rights to edit anything in here.
    We should be able to set granular rights to these function areas for example if I want a specific user group to be able to make updates to Content Types but not Manage Website and Access Right this should be possible

  11. In Optimizely 12 I have noticed a significant change in the Edit Mode UI layout that I would like to share as feedback.
    In Optimizely 11, the Edit Mode UI was more compact, providing editors with a more efficient workspace and minimizing empty space. However, in Optimizely 12, the Edit Mode layout includes a considerable amount of empty space, reducing the effective workspace for editors. This change is affecting the user experience, especially for those who were accustomed to the more compact design in Optimizely 11.This was one of the feedback points we received from our editors.
    I would like…

  13. I use Auto-Transalte a lot but I don't want the Name, URL and Reference to be translated automatically.

    When handling multiple language websites it is practical to keep the Name, URL & Reference in English.

    The URL I can change manually if necessary

  15. There is a lack of functionality around limiting access to assets for different user groups. Any user group with editor access will currently have access to all blocks and media. A user group with access to a part of the pagetree shouldn't have access to all the assets.

  16. While the updated CMS area in Optimizely 12 has improved in many ways, some parts of the UI have been changed in a way that makes editing more difficult.
    One such area is the language settings, where previously only languages that had settings associated with them were displayed. It was not until editing the settings that all languages were displayed. The UI is also more spacious now in general, with more padding and larger font sizes, which leads to less items visible at one time.
    Furthermore, the popup is too narrow to display all columns when more than 4-5 languages…

  18. As a developer, allowing direct database access to lower level environments, such as integration, to troubleshoot issues or run queries to confirm schema/validate data. Direct access allows developers to do this quickly and efficiently, as the current ways of working with exports can be very cumbersome and time consuming for large databases.

  19. ...such as AzureAD / Entra ID.
    As a site administrator of a site using mixed-mode authentication (both AspNetIdentity for local users and OpenID Connect for AzureAD / Entra ID users, I want to know that my site will not break if I set up a visitor group using the Site Criteria > User Profile criteria. Currently on CMS version 12.31 I get several exceptions if I have such a visitor group defined and I log in as an oidc user. These occur on pages that use the Search & Navigation FilterForVisitor( method and in the CMS editor, causing the page…

  20. When I inherit from ContentProvider I need to override LoadContent and LoadChildrenReferencesAndTypes. These two methods are not async which means that I can't use async/await in those methods. If below methods existed I could override them instead and use async/await in my implementation.
    Task<IContent?> LoadContentAsync
    Task<IList<GetChildrenReferenceResult>> LoadChildrenReferencesAndTypesAsync
    I know I can use Task.Run( to call async methods but It's not recommended.
    Here is some guidelines from David Fowler who works with .NET at Microsoft.https://github.com/davidfowl/AspNetCoreDiagnosticScenarios/blob/master/AsyncGuidance.md#avoid-using-taskresult-and-taskwait
