Set predefined values to widget properties

You can now configure how a specific widget behaves and looks and what content it displays by pre-filling the values for a wide range of widget properties. Such properties range from simple ones, such as configuring which news items to display, to more complex, such as a CSS class and canonical URL tags. Properties can also be defined on different levels of the widget properties hierarchy. You can set default values for properties of all Sitefinity CMS widgets, as well as of dynamic content widgets and custom widgets.

This way, you provide consistency in behavior and appearance of a specific widget and make it easier for users to work with widgets by avoiding the need to look for specific properties throughout the widget designer or having to know their exact property values.
Once the property values are set, they are not read-only and can be edited at any time. That is, you can still edit and override any of these predefined properties per widget in the widget designer. Learn more…

User-friendly routing

The out-of-the-box Sitefinity CMS MVC widgets enable you filter the displayed content or change the paging via user-friendly routing options. For example, if you have a news widget on your page, you can directly type a category name, appending it to the page URL in the browser. Sitefinity CMS filters the list of news and display only the ones marked with the specified taxonomy. Learn more...

Optimize the size of loaded client-side scripts

As of this version, by default, Sitefinity CMS serves a minified version of all built-in scripts that are referenced in the out-of-the-box widgets. To make debugging easier, a source map is included alongside each minified script. Developers can provide a minified version of the script files, referenced in their custom widgets, and Sitefinity CMS will load it automatically. Learn more...

Focus on MVC with widgets and page templates

MVC is the preferred technology for implementation with Sitefinity, and we are strongly recommending that all new projects be done on MVC. With the 12.0 release, for newly created projects, only MVC and hybrid (MVC + WebForms) frameworks and templates are available. For existing projects, you still have the option to work with Web Forms only, if needed. To enable that option, use a configuration in the Advanced settings section.

Using the MVC-first approach, selecting and modifying page templates is now simplified:

Sitefinity includes default templates for MVC and hybrid frameworks. You do not have to to start from scratch with a new template anymore. Learn more...
Once you select a template and its framework, if you want to change the template base at a later time, you can select just from the template list from the same framework. Learn more...
