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.

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.

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…

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.

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…

Avoid incorrect Instance restarts through PAAS Portal
I'm an Optimizely Admin, who does have full access to PAAS Portal.
Can you please consider an additional prompt on the restart (atleast for PROD), so the restart wouldn't be triggered mistakenly.
Also, considering the rolling restart would be ideal most of the time, can you enable the option "Restart One instance at a time" checked by default.
Thanks!

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…

Database timeout during site starting up after removing properties of block type
I am a senior developer. We have been facing this issue where when we remove properties of block type the site fails to start and throws database timeout during ModelSyncInitialization. This happens even when a single property of block type is removed.
We have an open ticket with support and have tried a few solutions but the only option that works is to increase the DatabaseQueryTimeout to an hour or so.3 votes -
Feature to export memory dump
Hi Team,
In the PAAS portal, we can download database, and logs for any environment. Similarly, can we have an option to download memory dump with time range selection for any environment?
Most of the time, the cause of timeout, and other unknown errors is custom code or data. It's useful for the customer for their initial investigation of such issues.
I can see a similar tool is developed by the Optimizely team and it is compatible with IIS but not with the DXP environment ( Linux https://github.com/episerver/DeveloperTools/tree/master
Can you please check the possibility?6 votes -
Auto Maintenance Page when origin server is not reachable
It will be good to have a maintenance page or custom error page automatically put up when origin server is not reachable e.g. 403, 502, 503 error response. So that user are not just seeing a generic error page which may impact business image.

PaasPortal feature to enable site maintenance mode
A control/button in the Paasportal to set the site into maintenance mode.

Exclude the hostnames in manage websites when using PaaS Portal to copy database and blobs between environments
For CMS customers that need to copy database and blobs using PaaS Portal, the environment-specific web hostnames (Admin > Config tab > Manage Websites become overwritten. Therefore, users wishing to view content in the preproduction system are routed over to production until the admin puts all the pre-production hostnames back into the system.

Clearing a single URL from the CDN cache
We would like the ability to clear a single URL in the CDN cache. When images and documents are replaced in globalassets it takes up to 12 hours until the correct file is available. While a work around of clearing all the cache is available, that affects our performance.

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…3 votes -
Editing Cloudflare's custom error pages in DXP PaaS portal
In case of issues it's not looking good that the signature of error and challenge pages is Cloudflare. Customers want to control all content that could be served to their visitors.
It would be very useful if an DXP administrator could upload or edit the error pages and also be able to toggle a manual editable/uploadable "maintenance page". Both features should be near "live" and don't require code deployment.

Automatic purging of CloudFlare CDN Cache when content are deleted in Episerver
In Episerver DXP we get a CDN from CloudFlare. Great!
If an editor deletes a media file in edit mode, the file can still be cached for hours in the CDN. This could be bad if the content really NEEDS to be removed right away, and the editor is not aware of the CDN cache.
When Episerver controls the entire platform, it should be possible to use the CloudFlare API to automatically purge the cache for items that are either deleted or updated.
I find it surprising that this is not already in place.
The current workaround is to purge…29 votes
