With a new year comes new releases, and Umbraco goods are no exception. Wonderful new updates for the cloud platform, the CMS, and other platforms are already available. In the next few weeks, additional integration packages, release candidates, and perhaps even the possibility to host your Umbraco Cloud sites in the UK will all be available for Umbraco Heartcore. You also receive an extremely exciting batch of product roadmap updates, not the least of which is a significant update on the new backoffice implementation that is anticipated to go live later this year.
Umbraco 11.1 adds highly-requested improvements that make it even more helpful, including a maintenance page for upgrades, additions to the Block List Editor and Element Types, single block mode, and support for the Tag Editor. Additionally, it provides Nested Content feature parity as well as fresh upgrades like drag-and-drop capability for the Media Picker. These highly valuable changes are the result of numerous contributions from Hacktoberfest and other factors. Every user of Umbraco 10 benefits from this because it has all been backported. Finally, the Block Grid Editor is also included in Umbraco 10.4.
Umbraco Workflow for Umbraco 10
Workflow has been upgraded to run on the most recent version of.NET, which included a significant rewrite and code cleanup. Additionally, it has new capabilities, including the capacity to send rejected content back to a specific step in a multistage process and content refresh notifications.
Umbraco UI Library 1.1
The transition to using web components for the backoffice UI is a part of the ongoing development on the new backoffice, also known as “future-proofing” the Umbraco Backoffice. The Umbraco UI Library, which was launched last year and contains a sizable portion of this work, is organically expanding as it is being used for both the new backoffice and the Umbraco Cloud portal.
Additionally, as a result of this, bugs are found and addressed, and new functions and enhancements are added. This led to the 1.1.0 release of the Umbraco UI Library a few weeks ago. The most recent releases of Umbraco 10 and 11 include the UI library, and the upcoming version of the UI library will be included as a dependency update in the next minor release for both.
Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) Settings
There are new release notes available for you to peruse as a result of a few additions to the Umbraco Cloud toolbox, beginning with an updated overview of MFA settings on a per-user basis for Cloud organizations. This makes it simple to identify who and what kind of MFA is being used. It’s practical to keep track of and can increase the security of your Umbraco Cloud experience. In a future release, this area will receive additional changes and features.
