Remove multiple items in Content Area in one go
You can select multiple blocks, images and products from the asset pane (ctrl + click or shift + click and drag them into the Content Area. However, there is no way of doing the same thing if you want to remove them from the Contet Area. This is often the case for commerce customers that add 100 products to a campaign page and want to remove them some time after. Attached video shows CMS 11 but its the same for CMS 12.

Provide Excel download on Reports
In the section "Reports", it would be very helpful if I am able to download the created report as Excel file. That way, I can sort the information, do better filtration, get a better overview on certain topics and I am able to forward this information also to stakeholders with no access to the Optimizely CMS. Currently, also with the less intuitive overview due to the pagination, I can not get much information out of a report.

New cache architecture for the platform
Currently there exists a large number of different caches used in CMS and all its addons, Optimizely codebase primarily uses ISynchronizedObjectInstanceCache (implemented by RemoteCacheSynchronization but there are a lot of other caching mechanisms across the platform and its addons.
The current implementation is not a good fit for high traffic sites that scales out to multiple instances as the event system, for example using the azure service bus event provider created by Optimizely, used for cache invalidation isn't fast enough to keep up, leading to numerous issues with stale data, publishing of content that doesn't work, order exceptions when working…2 votes -
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 -
Language translation of email contents in Episerver Forms
As a an editor I would like to translate the contents regarding "Send email after form submission" on the "Settings" tab in order to send e-mails with the correct language to end users, especially with regards to subject and message. This is not currently possible since this list-property is not culture specific.

Enable selection of datetime format on DateTime block in EPiServer.Forms
The current implementation of the DateTime element (found in the EpiServer.Forms.Samples package appears to be insufficient.
In the DateTimeElementBlock.js file, the logic used to determine the language format relies on the browser's language settings. However, this approach fails, as many Danish users have their browsers set to English (US by default, resulting in the language code en-US. This causes the jQuery date picker to display the wrong date format.
var _utilsSvc = epi.EPiServer.Forms.Utils,
language = navigator.language || navigator.userLanguage, // on iOS naviagtor.language is in lower case (ex: en-us
dateFormatSettings = epi.EPiServer.Forms.Samples.DateFormats[language.toLowerCase(] || epi.EPiServer.Forms.Samples.DateFormats["en-us"],
dateFormat = dateFormatSettings.pickerFormat;

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 -

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.
Please fix.2 votes -
Alert author when moving page results in duplicate url
When creating child pages and moving them to be the same level as the parent results in duplicate url, alert the author that moving will result in a duplicate url and require the author to make a change.
Steps to recreate:
1. create a parent page titled Monday Tips (url ends with /monday.tips
2. create a child page called Monday Tips (url ends with /monday.tips/monday.tips
3. moving the child page to be a at the same level as the parent would result in a duplicate url (/monday.tips. Opti doesn't allow duplicates and appends a numeric value to the end of…2 votes -
Adjust due time for an entire workflow/task instead of each step
The due date time automatically populates as 12:00 p.m., or to your current time when adding steps to a workflow. I want the ability to bulk adjust the time for every step in a task. For example, on our team, most of us quit working around 5 p.m. CST - so I want to be able to make the time 5 p.m. for all steps within a task. Having to change each one is tedious, and often steps will show up as "overdue" in my queue when I really have until the end of the day to complete them.

Add the option to use local time in the CMS instead of UTC
When adding a time from a Date/Time-picker in the CMS, you select one value, and then another value displays out on the website.
This is because you display UTC in the CMS and the browser then changes the time to local time out on the web. However this is extremely cumbersome for editors, since they need first of all be aware of this, and second of all think one extra step.
It would therefore be great if there was a solution for this, for example a setting to always display local time inside the CMS.2 votes -
Add the ability to retrieve IP Addresses for an environment by API
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…2 votes -
Viewing a scheduled job always resets the scheduled Jobs list view when returning to the list
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.1 vote -
Unchecking "show all languages" in back-end (sites tab isn't saved.
When you uncheck the "show all languages" button (sites tab and then switch language/do a page reload, the choice isn't saved.
It's really annoying for our content editor, since for our multisite project, one of the sites only has very few cultures available.
The backend saves nearly all settings, even when you click the "pin" on the site tree or assets panel & you refresh, it is being saved. So I don't see why this checkbox wouldn't be saved.
I reported this as a bug but because it's been like this for so long, it was recommended to create this…1 vote -

Saving content model fields with HTML tags should be possible if validateRequest is set to true
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.1 vote -
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 -
Please add IsRunning to IImportStatus.Status used in the IDataImporter
We are programmatically running the data importer service to merge databases. One of the page types has a list of users that is validated against our OAuth provider, OKTA. The problem is that running the import service in a scheduled job can't connect to OKTA to validate the user, so it fails. We are getting around this by wrapping the OKTA validator inside a conditional that looks at IDataImporter.Status.IsDone, and if it's false the import service is running (allegedly so it bypasses the user validation. The problem is that IsDone is initialized to its default state of 'false' since it's…
