Use current currency to perform calculations in Ecommerce Module
At the moment we have faced issues in rounding because Kentico uses the sites Main currency in all its calculations. This should be changed so that the calculations are done using the current currency and then converted to the Main Currency to store those values.
This issue has cropped up in an instance which uses 3 currencies and has seperate prices. As an example, we take the EUR price of 169 and an exchange rate to GBP of 1.2 we end up with 140.8333 in the main currency. When this 140.8333 is used in calculations it creates a rounding error…

Leverage input types for US Phone and Zip form controls
Alter markup of US phone and Zip Code form controls to enforce numeric entry and trigger mobile devices to launch their number pads instead of full alpha keyboards. Use something like this to handle iOS and Android behaviors:
<input type="number" pattern="[0-9]*" inputmode="numeric">
3 votesHello,
The next version of Kentico supports HTML5 form controls.

Add role permission to access Email Queue
At the moment is not possible to access the Email Queue unless you have administrator privileges. It would be great to grant access to the Email Queue app for previewing email status to roles different to the Global Administrator.

User subscription on reports should not be synced with staging module
A report is an object that sometimes requires updates. These updates are usually done on a staging server and then synchronized into production.
User subscriptions to reports are usually done on the production server.
However, if you synchronize a report from staging to production, you also sync all subscribed users.
This makes it in fact impossible to have a) reports synced or b) users subscribe on the production platform.
As in the newsletters subscriptions and reports should be synced seperatly.

All API Providers should support ObjectQuery
All API Providers should support ObjectQuery for method GetObjectNames. For example CMS.Messaging.MessageInfoProvider.GetMessages method doesn't resturn ObjectQuery and have only 4 predefined overloads.
5 votesHi
I will mark this idea as resolved as we covered 90% with the current version of Kentico. There might be a place that still has the old approach. However, we will cover all corners eventually.
thank you

Make it possible to use multiple coupons in one order (by default)
By default, only one coupon (or any other type of discount for that matter) can be applied to an order.
It would be nice to have the ability to let your customers use multiple coupons in one order, without having to customize the default Kentico functionality.
Besides, it is very common to be able to use multiple coupons on the same order in webshops.34 votesKentico 11

Support for Accelerated Mobile Pages (aka amp html)
Faster web pages means happier users/customers/stakeholders.
This relatively new open source project has a lot of industry support, and appears to be a framework for improving performance of web pages (particularly for mobile).
Is this something Kentico are looking to support?

Enable visible code name field of the contact group
Hi, as a marketer I would like to see the field with the code name of the contact group. Sometimes it happen that I have to pick the code name of the group and I dont know it in case it's not the same as the appearance name. Typically in the case when you created the group, save the name and then re-name it.
3 votesHello,
thank you for your feedback. This idea is part of Kentico 10 improvements for Contact management.

Improve CKEditor Plugin Support
To add a custom plugin to the CKEditor you either have to beat up config.js (which will cause issues on hot-fix / update) or clone the editor web parts to add your plugin on initialization. Kentico could easily expose this setting (the plugin names) into a site setting and use that in their editor controls. This would prevent people from having to customize the implementation just to add a plugin to CKEditor.
39 votesHi,
Many thanks for all the comments. We’ve managed to update the documentation to provide a straight forward HOWTO guide.
Please see https://docs.kentico.com/display/K9/Installing+CKEditor+plugins

Dynamic newsletter - Standard Un-subscription link
We have used “Un-Subscription Request” webpart on the newsletter page. Un-subscription through this webpart is lengthy process. Can we just have a standard Un-subsciption link, if user clicks on it, it should directly unsubscribe the user.
2 votesHello Amit,
you can use macros in Newsletters that either Unsubscribe user from one Email Campaign or all marketing activities. This functionality is supported since version 9.
I will close this suggestion now. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Modify Kentico's EMS Anonymous Contact tracking so private details don't leak to other people using the same IP.
Several times I have been to the Kentico site and have had details of co-workers showing in forms, revealing their personal details (cellphone numbers etc).
While it's okay for maybe Kentico's site, depending on what the website is this could be less than ideal.
1 voteHello Michael,
this behavior should be fixed in version 9 where merging based on IP address is no longer available. For all the options of contact merging, please see: https://docs.kentico.com/display/K9/Merging+contacts+and+accounts

Stop creating the 'Andy' user in new kentico installs.
The Andy user serves no purpose other than adding another site setup/launch checklist item to delete the user. Having a default user created with editor pivledges and no password in every kenticO is a huge issue.
I say remove security vulnerability andy!

create custom table from existing table
There should be an option when creating a custom table to create one based on existing table. So I would create a table using SQL queries directly in MSSQL, and I might want to tie it into the CMS later. I would be given the option to lcreate a custom table based on an existing table, and the custom table would generate the records necessary to view the data in the cms custom table section. It would not generate the new table as it already exists but merely facilitate the process which will allow me to view, edit and delete…
3 votesHi, please see https://docs.kentico.com/display/K9/Creating+custom+tables
Use an existing database table – choose this option if you already have a physical table in the system database and want to register it in the system.
Database table name – the actual name of the table in the system database. The drop-down list offers only database tables which are not part of the default Kentico database schema and are not yet registered for any object.
Primary key name – primary key column name. The original table’s primary key column is used automatically. Note that this column needs to be an identity column as well.If you run into issues, please contact our support. (support@kentico.com)

The "Dashboard" screen should be smarter. It should show the apps which user usually work with
For example, I usually work with "Custom Table" application. But it doesn't appear on my dashboard automatically.

Assign Objects - add page types into this list
Hello
When importing a site and not overwriting the Page Types during the import, is there a way to bulk assign Page Types to a site?
The Assign Objects route seems like it is missing Page Types. Is there a reason this is excluded? How easy could it be added in?
Thanks

Independent between delivery and payment method.
I would appreciate more independent (less strict dependency in settings) between delivery and payment method. To set up fees for payments, fees for delivery methods, fees for combing delivery/payment methods
3 votesHi Vilem,
we’ve removed a dependency between shipping and payment methods for Kentico 10 completely.
When it comes to the additional fees based on selected payment, shipping or their combination, this is possible via simple customization. Feel free to contact our support team for more details.
Anyway, we still need you! Continue sending your ideas to us, after all nobody knows what is needed more than the users.

Petr Vozak
