The Epinova Blog

Hopefully, with an e-commerce business, you are already aware of the new rules regarding accessibility for e-commerce.

When it's time to upgrade your Optimizely website to a later version, there are several things you should consider before, during, and after the upgrade.

By default, when hosting a web app in IIS two headers are exposed which do not show normally when developing locally.

In this blog post I’ll show how to create an admin user for Optimizely CMS in a new environment where you don’t have access to the admin interface.

Of course, adapting the web for different needs is not a new phenomenon, it is commonplace for everyone who has worked with websites since the beginning of the internet. On the other hand, there are many websites today that are still not accessible.

A good coding practice is to keep the view layer in an MVC structure as simple as possible and with no or minimal logic. In this blog post I’ll go through a pattern that I often use to be able to create easy to use extension methods – but without sacrificing the testability.

Epinova DXP deployment Azure DevOps extension now support 3 Additional Development Environments (ADE).

In this blog post I’ll re-introduce an Optimizely addon that’s been available for several years but that perhaps has not gotten a proper introduction to the developer community. The addon adds standardized management of settings in the form of content objects that are editable from within the Optimizely platform, just as pages and blocks.

When Svensk Digital Handel arranged the Nordic region's largest e-commerce event, D-Congress, Epinova and our sister companies within the Nova Consulting group were of course there to take part in the latest trends, and at the same time mingle with partners and customers.

We ran into an issue where duplicate entries in the database caused us issues. The database was hosted in DXP and we had no direct access to it. We solved the issue by creating a scheduled job to clean out the duplicates.

The "For this page" folder and edit option on local blocks disappeared or became hidden after updating some Episerver (Optimizely) packages. Do not fear, help is near!

When you have deployed to Optimizely DXP using the "direct deploy" option the web application is not automatically warmed up. To make sure that this is possible to achieve without having to create custom functionality in Azure DevOps, the Epinova DXP extension task ‘Deploy NuGet package’ now contains that functionality.
