  • View Workflow Process Definition as a diagram within the UI

    • Planned For Future Release
    • 0 Comments
    So far, Users have no overview of the Workflow Process Definition unless they have MS Visio + SDL Workflow Designer installed on their client machine. This is rather an unfavorable manner to view the steps. Many systems offers the possibility for the...
  • Make publishing of containers default to publishing the contents individually

    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned
    • 8 Comments
    Currently, if you publish a publication or a structure group, you end up with a single publishing transaction. We've accepted this for years because it's "just the way Tridion works". I would generally suggest that creating one big publish transaction...
  • Give feedback in the GUI when trying to publish without a mapping

    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned
    • 1 Comment
    When someone tries to publish something and there is no mapping present, all they see is an empty "Items to publish" list. My first thought was that it would be helpful to show a message like "You can't publish from this publication because there is no...
  • Add a markdown field

    • Accepted, Not Yet Planned
    • 3 Comments
    Adding a markdown field will make the lives of content editors and developers much easier imho. Markdown also allows for custom plugins. Which delivers a specialized way of handling content in markdown fields. A markdown field could show live preview...

    Current state (Web 8 Experience Manager): It is already possible to add or remove Embedded Schema fields using the or icon. But you can only edit existing fields when they are visible on the website via Inline Editing or by opening the selected component...

  • RTF Configuration Presets

    • Under Community Review
    • 2 Comments
    When creating schemas, we have the option to set a text field as rich text, and to also determine exactly what editing features are available to that rich text field. This is great, but when I am creating many new schemas with similar fields that have...
  • Provide visual feedback to indicate that an item is localised elsewhere.

    • Under Community Review
    • 2 Comments
    One of the classic Tridion mistakes is to make half a dozen futile edits to a template, only to realise that lower in the blueprint a localised version is actually what has effect. The same thing presumably applies to content. My first thought was that...
  • Be able to remove a user from multiple groups at once

    • Under Community Review
    • 0 Comments
    Currently, when editing a user within the CME, only one group can be selected when clicking the Remove button. If I want to remove a user from 10+ groups, then this is a pain. It would be good to be able to select multiple groups here and then click...
