Reviewers lack visibility into where blocks and media objects are used across the site, unless someone published the landing page/parent block where the block is supposed to be placed. This lead to time-consuming searches and uncertainty during approval.

Unable to Delete a Block that with the 'not used anywhere' message
There are blocks that have the message 'not used anywhere' at the top. They were incorrectly created and need to be deleted. But from the offending block's edit URL, we're unable to find the Parent Block/Folder it was created under.
We're needing a 'link' that takes you directly to the Parent of this block. Otherwise, I can't easily delete the block.6 votes -
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.

Add activity logging into Form Submissions for EpiServer Forms
As GDPR administrator i would like to know who was viewing, editing data that has been sent via EpiServer Forms. This is why all actions such:
- display form submissions
- download form submissions report
- deleted submitted data
in Form Submissions panel should be tracked, like for all other types of content.6 votes -

Support for Including File Attachments in Optimizely Forms Submission Emails
By default, Optimizely Forms do not send uploaded files as attachments in submission emails. Instead, the system provides links to the files stored in the Optimizely asset library. These links are only accessible to CMS-authenticated users, which limits their usability for external recipients.
Custom Enhancement Possibility:
It is currently possible to customize the SendEmailAfterSubmissionActor to include file attachments, as demonstrated in this community blog post: https://world.optimizely.com/blogs/kennyg/dates/2025/8/sending-email-with-attachments-with-optimizely-forms-in-2025/However, as stated in this blog post, this requires duplicating built-in logic, since SendEmailAfterSubmissionActor does not expose an integration point that allows developers to hook in and add attachments to the message.
Proposed Improvement:…

Custom Error Pages
Add support for Azure Custom Error Pages.
Our client has a requirement to display a custom error page when the web application is restarted.
We can use the maintenancepage,htm during deployments but they require a custom page for pure restarts as well.This custom error page feature in Azure provides what they need but its not currently supported by Optimizely DXP.

Copy content items without including child content.
As an Optimizely administrator, I would like to provide a way for our content authors to copy single content items without copying their child pages or blocks. This would prevent a lot of items from being copied by accident which clutters up the site and search results until they are deleted.

UI Change to Distinguish Prod from Preprod and Int
I've been burned a few times by publishing content on the wrong environment, e.g. publishing a change in a test page on Integration only to learn I was actually on Production. Woops!
And it's not just me. I know of times our clients have done this, and other members of our team.
Can I suggest some sort of UI indicator (other than just the URL) to indicate which environment you're on?
- Maybe you could output the name of the environment in the header?
- Maybe you could you update the 'Publish Changes' button to read 'Publish Changes to {ENVIRONMENT}'?

Support for Static IP address
When we (as an Optimizely DXP customer expose APIs for partner vendors to invoke, including the Optimizely DXP, we need to ensure that we meet The Group's security standards and one of the many facets to this is IP whitelisting.
This means we don't allow just any IP address to invoke our API. We have a firewall that implements a check on the incoming IP address(es and only allow ones that we know of.
It is a problem if the Optimizely DXP cannot provide us with persistent IP address ranges that we can whitelist on our side. We don't want…5 votes -
Preview of documents when edititing.
In the previous version there has been an icon like a globe in the top right corner of Epi's editor where you have been able to open the current page you are editing in a new window with its external link (without seeing it in the editor. That ability is gone in version 12.22.3 but was present in version 12.20.0 of the EPIserver.CMS package.
We need that to preview our documents and to get the exakt url to the webpage.5 votes -
On-page comparison tool improvement
When comparing a submitted version of a page to the published version of a page, it would be helpful to have an indication of what content has been added, edited, or deleted. Currently we need to eyeball it to see what the submitter has changed and I'm sure edits are being missed. If we only had to check the places that were changed, it would streamline the process and lower the amount of time spent on each page.

Create UI Builder
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.

Please, no not use DDS. Use custom database tables like Umbraco UI Builder.5 votes -
Automatic tracking of page redirects
When moving a page in the page hierarchy or changing the url slug the CMS should give me the option to add a redirect record that could be used to issue an appropriate redirect from the frontend.
Redirect records should be queryable from Optimizely Graph similar to pages and experiences so that my frontend code can easily detect when to return a redirect and where to.5 votes -

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.
We could…

Custom reports in CMS
They would like to see reports for pages where they have a lot of content to list the blocks and then pieces of information specific fields.
Custom reporting functionality needed for content inventory management
- Create reports by picking block/page template and selecting specific fields
- Current process requires developer/agency hours for custom reports
- Want ad hoc reporting: “insights report with just title, URL, publish date, authors”. or professionals reports with name, bio, etc.
- Would free up agency hours for higher-value work

Computed readonly field for a content type
A way to define a property or a method within a given content type having the following characteristics:
- It is a computed property: the value will be determined by querying other related database tables
- The property will be displayed as read-only / disabled on the Optimizely dashboard / edit content typeThe next approach does not display the property in Optimizely Admin UI
[Display( Name = "Total Price", Order = 130, GroupName = GroupNames.Plm)] public virtual decimal TotalPrice => Items?.Sum(i => i.Quantity * i.UnitPrice) ?? 0;This happened because it looks like content graph, SearchText, and GetSearchableProperties() in…
5 votesGetting such a property to show up in the UI is tricky since the calculation is located in the typed C# model, and the UI operates on a generic database model. Also, adding support for calculated properties in the properties would always come with a lot of constraints as only calculations the CMS are aware of could be handled, and you might need to use data from a third-party service to complete it.
I have reached out to engineering regarding your question about Graph/S&N indexing.

Language Manager won't let you exclude terms, translates Block Names
As a Content Manager, I want to be able to translate pages with an exclusion list which prevents specific words and terms (e.g. Brand Names, Product Names) in content, and Block/Image/Object Names (i.e. Internal Objects which need to be in my native language to administer) from being translated.
Currently, the add-on translates key terms and names and the content manager needs to identify these and translate them back again, but these changes are subsequently lost if the content is re-translated. By managing these globally through a dictionary (or a setting, for Block Names, etc), this would massively improve the admin…5 votes
