AI framework for .NET, New View Roles permission - This week in Orchard (28/08/2026)

Want to give support staff a way to see role definitions without letting them change anything? A new View Roles permission does exactly that.

Need to cap how long, or short, a text field's content can be? Text Field settings now support Minimum and Maximum length validation.

Building AI features outside of Orchard Core? CrestApps.Core brings the same AI Suite services to any ASP.NET Core project.

And signing into DotNest just got easier, with social sign-in via Microsoft, Google, GitHub, or Facebook.

This week's changes come from Matt Varblow, Antoine Griffard, and Mike Alhayek.

Catch Slow SQL Before Production, How to use Orchard Core Agent Skills? - This week in Orchard (07/08/2026)

Want tighter control over your login screen's security policy? A new setting lets you turn the Remember Me option off site-wide, not just hide it.

Wondering how a team actually keeps its AI-assisted development consistent? New documentation and two updated agent skills cover exactly that.

And curious how you catch a performance regression before it reaches production, not after? Lombiq's new SQL query monitoring feature, built on the same open-source toolkit Lombiq uses on client projects, does precisely that.

This week's changes come from Mike Alhayek, plus agent skills work from Antoine Griffard and Sébastien Ros, and a new tool from Lombiq.

How to fix "InvalidDataException: Form value count limit 1024 exceeded." in Orchard Core - Orchard Core Nuggets
Let's suppose you're building your shiny new Orchard Core website. In there you're also building a shiny new page, with Flow Part obviously. You throw together a lot of widgets to get all the bells and whistles on the page, then you save it and BAM! Internal Server Error: "InvalidDataException: Form value count limit 1024 exceeded." What's this, did I break Orchard? Is Orchard trying to break me? Let's fix this! The exception happens because the structure you've built with Flow Part is simply too large for the default ASP.NET Core limits. This is not something that would be too extreme to achieve, actually: If you have more complex widgets (with a lot of fields each) and you put several of them into a complex nested structure you can quite possibly build something by hand that would fail like this. Ask how I know! You can increase the limits restricting posted form value sizes, and in this particular case you'd need to change the ValueCountLimit value of FormOptions. Put this into the Startup class of your Orchard-based web app project (it won't work in a module or theme!): services.Configure This increased the limit to 4096, plenty more than the default. However, keep in mind that these limits have their uses: Malicious users could try to post large pieces of data to your server, trying to overwhelm it for example. So only increase this as much you only need! Note BTW that we're using the ASP.NET Core configuration API here, something which is also demonstrated in detail in our Training Demo Module, so follow up learning there! Did you like this post? It's part of our Orchard Core Nuggets series where we answer common Orchard questions, be it about user-facing features or developer-level issues.
