Umbraco 8 12 released

Umbraco is a Content Management System based on .NET Core. On March 11, 2021, an update was released which again brings a lot of new functionality. Let's cover this in this blog post what has changed again.

Umbraco is one of the most popular ways to create a website besides WordPress at MijnHostingPartner.nl. With a Content Management System like WordPress and Umbraco, it is possible for anyone to engage with their website. Regardless of whether knowledge of coding is required. This is because with a CMS it is possible to deal with the content in a visual way. As the name implies. Blog posts, articles and pages can be filled in the same way as, for example, Microsoft Word. In Umbraco it is even possible to convert Microsoft Word documents to content for the website with just one click.

Automatic updates

To make life easier for website administrators it is now possible to have updates run automatically in the background. Without having to log in and use the installer. This is of course easy for your own websites and also for your customers' websites. This will save you time and ensure that you do not need to set aside any more time for installing updates.

To make use of this, it is necessary to add something to the web.config once you have installed the latest version of Umbraco.

Umbraco.Core.RuntimeState.UpgradeUnattended in app settings set to true

So you need to set this to true. And check that everything points to the correct version of Umbraco. When something goes wrong with the update you will not see a complete hard error in the browser. But rather a nice error message that the boot failed. In the log you can then immediately see what's wrong. And then easily fix it.

Sorting by language made easier

If you are working on a website that is made for multiple languages then you will be looking forward to this update. In the menu for selecting the languages it has been made much easier to sort between them. And to select the right language for what you need.

Improvements in the Document Type menu

In the Document Type menu a number of improvements have also been made to make it easier to find which Document Type you need and to make a better flow for developers who use a lot of compositions or types.

Performance improvements

As always, improvements have been made to the performance of Umbraco hosting. This ensures this time that both the website visitor and the employee will see the requested information faster. From working with the installation to requesting the content at the frontend, it has now become faster to install and work with the website.

The speed of this is of course very important for anyone working on a modern website. After all, it is important for a large number of factors that this is loaded as quickly as possible. With the .NET Core hosting packages from MijnHostingPartner.nl you would see the fastest results with Umbraco thanks to the dedicated resources and pool.
