  1. As a CMS editor I want to be able to save content model fields, if they containt HTML tags.
    <system.web>
    <pages validateRequest="true" />
    </system.web>
    Use content model containing a property where Description contains HTML tag, e.g.:
    [CultureSpecific]
    [Display(
    Name = "Gültigkeitsabfrage Text",
    Description = "<ul><li>text</li></ul>",
    GroupName = SystemTabNames.Content,
    Order = 150]
    public virtual XhtmlString MainBody { get; set; }
    The current behavior is that is throws a validation exception due to posting unescaped HTML tag.

  2. When checking intervals or the setup of several scheduled jobs, the Scheduled Jobs list view always reloads and any column sort selection or scroll debth is lost. This makes it difficult to systematically check settings of multiple jobs.
    Would be nice if there was a way to return to the list view and have the same sort order and a highlight of the last job selected.

  3. When using smaller screens or viewports the Scheduled Jobs view is difficult to read and prioritizes showing Last Run and Next Run columns, instead of the name of the job.

  4. ...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…

  5. We have a client requirement that is to automatically update an IP Allowlist for a third-party system that will be consumed by Optimizely CMS. The intention is to access a third party system using an API-Key within a header, however to ensure the system is fully secure they would like to restrict access to the system by IP address.
    While we can retrieve the full list of outbound IP Addresses from within PAAS Portal, this is currently a manual process. Ideally they would like to automate the update of their IP Allowlist so that the third party API remains secure…

  6. It would be great if blocks could be shown depending on "Dependencies" just like it can be done with form elements. E.g. a block is hidden until somebody clicks a link (button on the page.
    It provides me the possibility to add 2 different (CRM integrated forms and show one of them depending on the choice of the visitor.
    Of course it should not only work for the above-mentioned example.

  7. Please put Smart Publish back in the Publish menu. It disappeared in the move to CMS 12 and the only thing my team can find that's even close is to the same functionality is to:
    1. Create a new Project.
    2. Make any changes in the new project.
    3. Hit Overview.
    4. Publish Items from Overview .
    Not only is that not intuitive at all, but it's significantly more work (especially if you forget and make a bunch of changes in the Primary Draft, because then you have to redo them in the new Project.

  8. When using the library as a DAM, I often find that I upload files directly into the library UI. On file upload, there's no option currently to assign those files to a folder, or to a collection. They end up in a top level folder then have to be moved into the folder where they belong. It would be very useful to be able to assign files to folders during this process, similar to how you can when pushing a file from the task level.

  9. The Translate Interface in language manager add-on (EPiServer.Labs.LanguageManager, to make translations smarter, It would be benificial to add IContent and propertyName. With that, we can get Custom Property Attributes, or other properties to understand better the context.
    Change from
    TranslateTextResult Translate(
    string inputText,
    string fromLang,
    string toLang;
    to
    TranslateTextResult Translate(
    string inputText,
    CultureInfo fromLang,
    CultureInfo toLang,
    IContent currentContent, //or similar ContentReference
    string propertyName
    ;
    With this, we could make the translations smarter by knowing the context of the block or page. We could also read any custom attribute on the property if any.

  10. In the CMS Editor, when a content area has AllowedTypes specified, it always lists types that are not allowed in the hint text. However, the list that's not allowed is not complete.
    We expect the only the types that are allowed to be listed.
    Example
    [AllowedTypes(typeof(CustomDataAttributeBlock]
    public virtual ContentArea? GAAttributes { get; set; }
    CMS Editor shows:
    Only Custom Attribute Block types, but not Form elements, Form step, Rich text (with placeholders, or Form Location URL.
    Expected:
    Only Custom Attribute Block types

  11. Dear Team,
    Currently, when setting up EpiServer Forms criteria in Audiences, we can only select forms listed under the 'For All Sites' section. However, our business also requires the use of forms from the 'For This Site' and 'For This Page' sections.
    It would be helpful if future releases could include this feature.
    Thanks!
    Best regards,
    Lisa

  12. Currently page comments are removed during the change log truncation process. These comments are associated to the version history and can be used to provide valuable information regarding each content change.
    Our content authors rely on these comments for content audits and other reviews. Ideally these should be maintained as long as the version associated with the comment. Perhaps the retention period could be configurable depending on the site needs.

  13. As a developer with aims for high performance, I would like the IContentAreaLoader interface to have a batch load method, to load all content area items at once, whether from inline content, cache or database. All while keeping the internal order of the items.
    If I want to load all content area items at once, using IContentLoader.GetItems, then the order of the items is not guaranteed to be kept. So I am left with enumerating the list of items, and then calling IContentAreaLoader.LoadContent for each item.
    If this is done, then I would like you to also use in in…

  14. For stringlist and linkitemcollection properties, we could see the values are just duplicated and not translated to native text during the auto translate of page.
    The issue is reproducible in Alloy solution and attached the evidence for the same.
    Also, please find the attached email from Optimizely team as well.

  15. If site has thousands pages and blocks, it is very difficult to select correct page or block to link each other. Current you have to browse via tree to find correct content to create link or select block.
    Select page or content dialog should have search field as it is in page or block tree. This speed up content editor to find correct page or block.

  16. A true unpublish option would be a huge asset to the CMS. If that's not possible (or at least not possible soon, then the ability to schedule an end to expiration should work.
    It might sound like a small thing, but being able to unpublish and then schedule for republishing can be the difference between a couple of clicks and rebuilding an entire page (or pages, if you're very unlucky. In the current system, if something needs to be pulled off the site you have to expire it. But if you want to put it back up at a specific…

  17. In our solution, we have 31 different languages, and thus a lot of language fallbacks both for pages and blocks. In CMS 11, we could easily spot the blocks in a content area that were a fallback, it would be a slightly darker grey and also had the locale name it was falling back to on it. In CMS 12, this functionality disappeared. Our editors use a lot of blocks on their pages and are missing this sorely. Could you please consider readding this feature?

  18. In the documentation it says that it is possible to enable previews of unpublished content delivered by Content Delivery API https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/content-management-system/v1.5.0-content-delivery-api/docs/customizing-content-delivery-api-for-edit-view. However the example that is provided wont work since HttpContextContextModeResolver that it uses checks for values in the current request that indicates that the request is made to the cms edit mode.
    This will never be true when you are using Content Delivery API to fetch the content since the request is made to /api/episerver/v3.0/content/... and not /episerver/cms/...
    In my opinion, Optimizely should have a built in way of previewing unpublished content delivered by Content Delivery API or…

  19. Creating custom admin interfaces in Optimizely, is not standardized, so nothing looks the same. It is also too time consuming to build.
    Umbraco has a really nice UI builder. It's both powerful, easy to use, and creates recognizable UIs. Optimizely should implement the same.
    https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-ui-builder/
    Please, no not use DDS. Use custom database tables like Umbraco UI Builder.

  20. As a CMS user, the page pane, asset pane, and page/asset selector modal should display horizontal scroll bars when trying to view deeply nested content items. This will improve navigation and prevent content item names from being cut off.
