Orchard Harvest 2026 program, Your website should integrate with your business systems - This week in Orchard (26/06/2026)

The full Orchard Harvest 2026 conference program is live, with the event taking place in Vancouver on September 10-11. Grab your early-bird ticket for just $280 and join the community for two days of sessions and networking!

Form submissions shouldn't end up in manual copy-paste routines. Orchard Core connects directly with Zapier, Make, and n8n to automatically trigger CRM updates, notifications, and more. DotNest's managed hosting makes the whole setup hassle-free!

The Health Checks module by Hisham Bin Ateya lets you restrict access by IP, apply rate limiting, and DoS protection for your health check endpoints, all configurable via JSON.

Managing multiple tenants on the same database just got easier. New RequireTablePrefix and TablePrefixPattern options, introduced by Mike Alhayek, let you enforce or auto-generate table prefixes (e.g., using the tenant name), so your setup is consistent and error-free out of the box.

No more guessing which properties to use for the Settings recipe step. Every module with configurable settings now includes a dedicated Recipe Configuration section with examples!

Admin Menus Localization support, MCP Prompts and MCP Resources support - This week in Orchard (03/04/2026)

We have two demos prepared for this week! The first demo is by Hisham Bin Ateya on adding localization support for Admin Menus, and the second is MCP Prompts and MCP Resources support by Mike Alhayek! Both are worth watching!

Before the demos, let's check out the new content manager ValidateAsync behavior, which means that now ValidateAsync() only performs validation and returns the result, and it no longer cancels the session on failure.

And thanks to Mike Alhayek, there is a new PlacementLocationBuilder fluent API as a type-safe alternative to manually constructing placement location strings in display drivers.

Enough talking, let's see these in detail!
