Back in March before everything changed in the World and the UK ground to a halt with the Coronavirus pandemic, we managed to squeeze in the first Manchester Sitecore user group of the year.
I presented an overview of Sitecore Horizon Features & Functionality in Sitecore 9.3. I talked about what Horizon can do as well as some of it’s current limitations, how to install it and demoed editing an custom page I’d built in Sitecore MVC in Horizon.
My talk seemed generally well received and there was quite a lot of discussion about various aspects of Horizon, some of which I’ve edited out to keep the presentation a reasonable length. One of the hot topics was around how existing MVC pages would work with it and surprisingly they mostly do (for field types that are supported at this point anyway).
I think it was useful for others who haven’t yet installed Horizon to have a chance to see it in action and to think about how it might be used in the future for Sitecore Page Editing.
On The Horizon
It’s taken a while to adjust to the ‘New Normal’ with Covid-19, so this post is much delayed. However this week I finally got round to editing the video of my presentation and publishing it on my YouTube Channel, so here it is:
I hope it’s useful for others too and thanks to Jeremy Davis and Dominic Hurst for their help organising the SUG and to Valtech for hosting.
It may be some time until we can have another one in person but i’m starting to think about planning the next Manchester SUG (online only – in June/July) so if your interested in speaking at that one then let me know.
Stay safe eveyone.
