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!

Harvest speaker applications are now open until May 15! If you’ve been considering speaking at Orchard Harvest, this is a great opportunity to share your ideas with the Orchard Core community. Join us on the 10th and 11th of September in Vancouver!

Let's see the details!

This week, you can see a demo by Mike Alhayek of the AI Chat Admin widget that adds a floating chat widget to the Orchard Core admin dashboard. A Frontend Chat Widget is also available, which allows site visitors to interact with AI chat directly on the frontend.

See the new IJSLocalizer infrastructure, which you can use to load the localization from the PO files and make it available in JavaScript.

Georg von Kries added new validation that warns against unsafe Liquid output in SQL queries. So, whenever you edit an unsafe SQL query, it will tell you not to utilize this kind of usage in Liquid.

Check out DotNest, the Orchard Core SaaS, which has a new look! The new site is built with Tailwind CSS and a much more user-friendly content management approach.

As we mentioned, we started publishing last year's Harvest recordings to YouTube. Check them out for some inspiration and apply to be a speaker for this year's Harvest!
