Automatically Adding Member Groups to Umbraco Public Access

In a recent project, Owain Jones implemented middleware in Umbraco to streamline Public Access Restrictions for frontend Members, automatically including an "Administrators" group in access settings. This solution alleviates the burden on content editors to manually add the group each time, enhancing efficiency in managing user-generated content.

Real-Time FAQs: Updating Umbraco with the Management API

Jeroen Breuer discusses a method for synchronizing FAQ content between Umbraco and other CMS platforms, such as Sitecore, using the Umbraco Management API and webhooks. This integration allows automatic updates of FAQs in Umbraco whenever changes occur in the external system, ensuring consistency across multi-brand setups without manual intervention.

Using UMB_UCONTEXT with Umbraco 14+

In Umbraco 14, backoffice authentication transitioned from cookie-based to bearer token authentication, impacting how users authenticate outside the backoffice. The legacy UMB_UCONTEXT cookie now only facilitates OpenID Connect sign-ins and may not be permanent. Kenn Jacobsen proposes a new cookie-based authentication mechanism using OpenIddict events to manage user sessions effectively.
