Make LoadContentAsync and LoadChildrenReferencesAndTypesAsync return Task<>
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-taskwait2 votes -
Can we consider allowing frontend URL for media assets?
We are running a setup with a separate edit and frontend servers.
When assets are added to Optimizely Graph, the asset URL is always updated to be the edit server URL?not the frontend server. At first, I thought this was a mistake, but having dug into the code I see it?s intentional.
The RewriteAssetHostInitialization (Optimizely.ContentGraph.Cms.NetCore.Core explicitly switches the host for assets from the frontend to the edit server.
Could we make this optional via a configuration option?1 vote -

Improve UI for a better editing experience on language settings and similar popups
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…4 votes -
Improvements local inline blocks
This is the drawback right now with local blocks:
1. There is no way to map the inline local blocks between versions or language contexts. Why not add a GUID?
2. There is no way in the UI (Dojo JavaScript API to determine if the context is within "inline blocks dialog" or to identify which ContentArea it resides in, or to direct link to an inline block.
as a plugin developer, this is needed to map content and build great plugins. .1 vote -

Make the Salesforce Marketing Cloud (ExactTarget plugin work for multiple Business Units
Problem
We are using the Plugin in Optimizely CMS to easily connect Optimizely Forms to Salesforce Marketing Cloud Data Extensions. This works very well when the user that's used to configure the connector only has access to 1 Business Unit (MID in Salesforce. However, as I understand from Salesforce, many customers work with instances that have multiple Business Units. This means that from Salesforce stand point, you need to provide to which Business Unit you want to connect when authenticating, but the plugin does not provide a means to specify this. To solve this, we now had to create multiple…1 vote -
Blob provider does not support async operation
The EPiServer.Framework.Blobs.Blob base class lacks many async methods. E.g. There is Write(, but no WriteAsync(.
Curiously, it contains AsFileInfoAsync(, but that is about it. Everything else is not using async.

Retain versions correctly for a content move in CMS tree (to fix invalid editor history
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…7 votes -
Potential security risk in <Import Data> feature
The file upload used in the [Import Data] feature in the Settings interface does not limit the file extensions to .episerverdata only. Other file extensions can be uploaded (including files in a zipped file, which may pose security threat to the platform. Specially, when uploading a zipped antivirus test file, the system will display <Import successful>.
Allowing an undesirable or malicious file to reside on a system—even if it is not immediately executed or processed—constitutes a security vulnerability in itself. "Unrestricted upload of file with dangerous type" is formally documented as a common weakness under CWE-434, highlighting that simply permitting…1 vote -
Stop the endless scrolling to find 'For This Page/Block" in the Asset Pane
Editors spend unspeakable amounts of time scrolling to the end of the Blocks and Media etc tabs in the Asset Pane to get to the 'For This Page/Block'. Mostly editors use local assets and so the folder 'For This Page/Block' should always be pinned to the top of these tabs.

Feedback on UI Layout in Optimizely 12 Edit Mode
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.

Do not require a license for local.domainname.ext
As a developer I want to use local.domainname.com without a license, so we don't have to keep creating licenses for every developer.
The documentation (https://docs.developers.optimizely.com/content-management-system/docs/set-up-a-development-environment#licenses states:
A license is not required when running on localhost or domainname.local.
However, we had to switch from domainname.local to local.domainname.com (due to a third-party integration.2 votes -
Support redirect host definitions with secondary language branches
As a site owner, I would like to use a redirect HostDefinitionType to redirect secondary domains to the primary domain. This is working in most scenarios.
However, it is not supported when I have one primary domain, and alternative language branches have no separate domains, but are served as "subfolders" on the primary domain.
If, for instance, the primary host definition has "no" as language code, then I can set type to be redirect on a secondary domain, if the language code is the same as the primary host definition.
But if I add a secondary domain, set it to…2 votes -

Change the red asterisk on required fields

Better access rights management for assets
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.

No error display when form submit not successful
We want to use Marketing automative Salesforce connector for Optimizely CMS(Customer Management System form to connect with our Salesforce platform.
But we find out there are no submission failure show up on CMS interface, only recording the submit data in "form submission" dropdown.
This is unhelpful and not user-friendly for CMS user, developers, and infrastructure people. We cannot track/ debug/ get notice when form is submitting unsuccessful when Salesforce end shows data field mapping error.

Overview of Audience groups and where they're used
Requirement:
* We are currently implementing the personalization on basis of combination of different Audiences using the Azure groups with their respective roles in Optimizely.
* It is required that certain pages/blocks need to show for some groups and hide for others.
* This could be different based on the requirements.
Challenges:
* The challenge is that we cannot see the direct overview of different personalization under the Audiences (except the list of groups under the Audiences.
* In addition and more importantly, there is no overview of where these Audience groups are used within the website.
* These groups…1 vote
