HSTS on the root domain
We are experiencing some redirection issues we have no control over as they are done in the root domain.
http://oldsite.com redirects to https://www.oldsite.com then finally to https://www.newsite.com
The redirection should be as follows:
http://oldsite.com -> https://oldsite.com -> https://www.newsite.com
Please update Optimzely’s configuration to do these redirects properly

Support other CDN platforms than Cloudflare
With the recent downtime episodes from Cloudflare’s side it would be nice to have other CDN options for sites hosted in DXP PaaS.
Options like Akamai, Azure Front Door, KeyCDN, Fastly, Bunny CDN, etc.
I am aware that some DXP components are reliant on Cloudflare. But the primary proxying of content to the web application could just as well be routed through other CDNs.

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…

Order of content fields in Content Graph _fulltext property
When a text field is indexed by Content Graph in the _fulltext property, the values in the fields are appearing out of order from how they are configured in the CMS, where nested content is appearing before outer container content.
For example, our page contains an accordion block. The accordion block has a content area which allows topics blocks. The topics blocks contain a rich text field.
When querying graph the _fulltext property shows the values of the indexed content in this order:
Topics block content
Topics block name
Accordion block name
Container block nameWe would expect to see…

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.

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 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

Request for Wildcard Hostname Support on DXP
Wildcard hostnames are not supported on DXP, and all configured hostnames must be explicitly mapped in the CMS admin.
We will have thousands of customers for whom we will be setting up individual sites. Is it possible to configure a wildcard entry on DXP—such as *.procase.riogrande.com—to support this model? Managing tens of thousands of individual URLs in Optimizely DXP would be difficult for both Opti and us, and it would significantly increase our customer onboarding time.

CMS Page Previews
When previewing unpublished pages in the CMS, nested blocks (such as unpublished child blocks within a parent block) do not display correctly at the page level, making it impossible for publishers to see the full layout and content as it will appear when published. This limitation forces the team to rely on the Advanced Review plugin, which does show all nested unpublished content but introduces extra steps and performance issues.

Customize Azure blob storage client retry options
For AzureBlobProviderOptions, expose some way to override retry options for the client. If there are problems with blob storage (and it is only used to serve pictures and such) it might be preferable with fewer retries to not have excessive response times overall.

Upload very large single files using cms
People are needing to upload very large files, such as video files and are running into Cloudflare file size limits.
Being able to upload a very large file into the storage blobs using the Deployment API and then being able to refer to it in the CMS may be a way to work around the size limits in Cloudflare.
The problem trying to do this now is that uploading via the deployment API won't make it into the same container that the CMS is configured to read from. Also, usually when people add media, a reference in the DB is…

Frontend and Backend Server Roles for Headless CMS / Graph driven websites
Seeking the ability to have frontend and backend server roles in the Optimizely DXP, similar to the way there is a special scheduler server role. Our website is currently set to use Affinity for backend purposes. we had Affinity off but it was turned on by the suggestion of Optimizely support. With the frontend and backend roles running on the same server the frontend customer facing website is forced to use affinity as well. This request is to create independent server roles for the frontend and backend so settings like Affinity could be managed independently. Would also like to be…

Use more secure ciphers by default
When performing a security check for a DXP site on internet.nl the result is that "Your web server does not prefer 'Good' over 'Sufficient' over 'Phase out' ciphers" and "Your web server supports one or more ciphers that have a phase out status, because they are known to be fragile and are at risk of becoming insufficiently secure.".
I suggest that more secure ciphers should be used on all DXP sites by default. The more secure ciphers are referred to as "Modern", "Compatible", and "Legacy" in the cloudflare documentation. https://developers.cloudflare.com/ssl/edge-certificates/additional-options/cipher-suites/recommendations/
