Add support for Canonical Link Element
In addition to "Redirect document aliases to main URL," (formerly a web.config appSettings directive), I'd like to see an option for "Use Canonical Link Element."
With that option, the URL alias would be honored and persist in the address bar, but an indication of the actual URL would be made as a canonical link element in the <head>:
<link rel="canonical" href=" http://www.example.com/Actual-Url "/>

We are currently exploring the possibility to cover this idea. There are few questions related to Canonical links I’d like to ask:
Do you prefer this feature to automatically cover most used scenarios (such as redirections) or do you prefer manual control of Canonical links?
Automatically:
If automatically, what would be the top required scenarios for your projects?
Is the primary concern the variant of the URL (like http vs https, trailing slash vs non-trailing slash?
How do you want to specify the format of the canonical link globally?
Manually:
If manually, then do you consider the Content editor to specify the canonical link using a selector or URL manually?
Is the primary concern a page alias created for a page?
Both:
Is it ok just to handle links within a single site or there is also a need for links to external sites?
Is the scenario covered by…

This idea is not going to be covered in the next version of Kentico. We are going to gather more information about it.

Automatically add semantics
Allow built in semantics (RDF, Open Graph) for documents, which can be configured easily. So for example a "product" document would automatically output semantic meta data (name, descriptions, photo, price, promotion, localisation information etc) without the CMS editor needing to fill in extra fields. Smart search could also use the meta data to help prioritise the search results. Perhaps there could be a choice in compliance too; facebook open graph, twitter cards, standard open graph etc. Semantics are becoming increasingly important for Web apps and e-commerce - it would be great to see it easily achievable in Kentico without the…

Event Booking Registration
Extend Event Booking form design with Online Forms and Workflow. Allow registered user to register event without entering information that is already in their profiles like name,email, and address. However, they need to enter details like logging, food allergy or food according to their religion prohibit, hotel, payment method (online or wire transfer), payment through payment gateway, etc. Event admin could manage and see reporting of events an booking

Add area at the bottom of Master page
Hello
On a Master page (portal site) we would like to add some JS to the bottom on different pages. It would be really useful to have a field/area/zone that could be used. So that we could put anything we want and this area would put what we wanted just before the closing HTML Body tag.
Thanks
Ilesh Mistry
55 votesHi, we are now considering what fields really need to be available on the Master page tab, so that all required scenarios can be supported. If you guys have any further comments, please let us know!

Add a path selector for Media Libraries
When creating web parts that rely on the Media Library content, it would be helpful to have a Media Library path selector control, instead of manually typing in the path, which can be problematic.

Rewrite web parts and widgets with responsive design in mind
Many of the standard web parts that require width and height entries only accept fixed pixel entries (eg. image and text web parts, Google maps, etc.). It would be great if one could enter percentages as well.

Support ZURB's Foundation Front End Framework
ZURB's Foundation front end framework is in the same class as Twitter Bootstrap and makes it easier for developers to prototype and implement mobile first designs that work cross platform.
Currently the Kentico CSS and Foundation clash making editing in CMSDesk or in-page editing impossible (see here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17055672/using-zurb-foundation-in-kentico-cms-portal-engine).
It would be great if this were not the case as deliverables from outside agencies or existing migration products may be based on this popular framework.

create more realistic usable booking system
Booking should not be tied only to a calendar. If you have just couple of events the calendar is worthless – you need a list of bookable events grouped by locations or months. Having a booking system is a great idea but it needs to be more usable in real world.

Events (Booking System) enhancements
The following enhancements to the event booking module would be very useful.
1) Ability to add users to events in bulk (in the admin section) via a selector. e.g. perhaps in a similar way that you would add users to a membership or role etc
2) Ability to resend the Event Invitation email to ALL users in bulk. Currently you're only able to resend to individual users.. this leads me on to suggestion #3
3) Ability to specify/apply a pre-defined email template for the "Mass Email" tab. This would satisfy #2 above. Currently, when using the mass emailer you're forced…

most viewed
I would great to have a webpart where you can see the top N most viewed pages/products/blogposts or any documenttype in a repeater style.
It's a very common "widget" on a lot of websites.
Thank you.

Forms - Redirect to url field
Hello
For the Forms area, it would be nice to make the Redirect to url field, a URL Selector form control and not be a text box. This way we can point to a page in the CMS Tree without problems, but also be able to put Macro's in the URL path.
Thanks

26 votesHi Ilesh, I agree with you that within Forms module there can be a lot of UX improvements. Path or URL selector is definitely nice improvement for Redirect to URL field. Waiting for more votes. Thank you!

Detecting soft vs. hard bounces
Is it possible for Kentico to include or to look at the smtp reply codes when looking at the bounced emails, instead of only using the special key. This will mean that the task will look in the specified mailbox and look at the SMTP code and determine the type of bounce. Using these codes we can identify between a soft bounce and a hard bounce and most probably unsubscribe an email with a hard bounce. http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/tech/smtpreplies.html

Outlook connector for Intranet Portal Package
One of the most compelling features of Sharepoint is the ability to view and edit shared online calendars directly in Outlook.
This sort of functionality would be a great addition to the document management features that come with the new intranet portal package!25 votes -
Tie booking system in with user accounts
The booking system doesn't store a user's id, only their email address. This makes it difficult to determine what events the user has attended if they ever change their email address.

Vagrant Box
Are you familiar at all with Vagrant? https://www.vagrantup.com/
I was wondering if Kentico would consider provisioning a Vagrant Box with the necessary software installed so that Mac users could develop locally.
