Sitefinity Release Notes: July 16, 2025
Jozianne Mestas | Office of Information Technology Jul 16, 2025Dear university web community members,
We’re pleased to share the latest updates and improvements to our shared content management system, Sitefinity. These changes support our ongoing efforts to enhance site functionality, accessibility, and user experience.
Strategic Project Updates
- Transition to Sitefinity Cloud
- Our initial testing activities to prepare for the transition to Sitefinity Cloud continue.
- We continue to perform system clean up tasks in preparation for this migration.
- Migration Timeline
- Exact migration dates have not been finalized.
- The transition is expected to occur sometime this Fall, after the start of the new semester.
- The timing will be carefully selected to ensure little to no disruption for end users and communicated in advance.
- Temporary Editing Freeze
- During part of the migration, a temporary freeze on website content editing will be implemented.
- Editors will be asked to pause all updates during this time.
- This freeze will likely take place over a weekend to reduce the impact on users.
Enhancements to Existing Functionality
- FAQ widget
- Search and filtering functionality can now be added to help your site users search through the questions and answer content for related information.
- Search and Filter content type
- Users can now tailor the search parameters directly within the search text box by editing the search label, providing clearer insight into what criteria will be used during the search.
Other items to note
- Web Bio import
- The 'Import from IdM' feature will work for employees added to the system before May 25, 2025. Due to a current outage affecting the sync of new users, please continue adding new users via the CSV upload option.
