Help shape Orchard Core's new website, a new website using Orchard Core - This week in Orchard (17/07/2026)

When you add a custom settings page, does it look like it belongs in the admin UI?

When you utilize workflow activities, does JavaScript syntax have to be the only option?

After checking out this week's Orchard news, both have better answers.

Thanks to Mike Alhayek, admin forms across settings and configuration pages now use the same ocat-* CSS class conventions, replacing legacy Bootstrap and Orchard-specific helpers. And all workflow tasks that previously only supported JavaScript now also support Liquid, with a new LiquidTask added to match ScriptTask.

Also this week: Nick Jackson's Orchard Core website redesign is open for community feedback, and GoRide joins the showcase of sites running on Orchard Core.

Dojo Course 2 has been released!

The first Dojo Course was recorded and released in 2013 (not long after Lombiq Technologies was founded) and now we are happy to announce the arrival of Dojo Course 2! The course material has the same foundation (the Orchard Training Demo Module, which has also been upgraded in the past years), but it's updated for the (then) latest Orchard version (1.10.1) and the production quality is also improved. Just like the first generation, these videos were also recorded as part of a university course, but this time host was the University of Szeged, Faculty of Science and Informatics. Thanks for having us! The first hour of videos is available now on YouTube in the Dojo Course 2 playlist - subscribe to our YouTube channel to get notified of the upcoming videos (we will release a few every 2-3 days)! Update (2017. 12. 27.): All videos are now available.
