Sitecore

Intro 📖 In this post I’d like to share a workflow “attacher” implementation I built on a recent Sitecore XM Cloud project. The solution attaches workflows to new items based on a configurable list of template and path rules. It was fun to build and ended up involving a couple Sitecore development mechanisms I hadn’t […]

The world of digital experiences is evolving more quickly than ever before, and let’s be honest, artificial intelligence (AI) is more than just a trendy term these days. It’s becoming a business necessity. AI is no longer a “nice to have” for companies that use Sitecore as their Digital Experience Platform (DXP). It’s turning into […]

When working with forms, a common problem is spam form submissions. There are several ways to prevent this problem. Using CAPTCHAs to stop bot submissions is the most popular technique to avoid this issue. However, bots can now bypass CAPTCHA security. This is where honeypot fields come in: a simple, invisible, and user-friendly way to […]

If you’re using Sitecore Docker containers on Windows, you’ve probably noticed your disk space mysteriously shrinking over time. I recently encountered this issue myself and was surprised to discover the culprit: orphaned Docker layers – leftover chunks of data that no longer belong to any container or image. My Setup This happened while I was […]

In today’s digital-first world, brand consistency is more than a visual guideline, it’s a strategic asset. As teams scale and content demands grow, having a centralized Brand Kit becomes essential. If you’re using Sitecore Stream, building a Brand Kit is not just useful, it’s transformational. In my previous post, I tried to explore Sitecore Stream, […]

When I first started working on Sitecore XM Cloud and headless Sitecore projects, it was always Next.js. It felt like the default choice – and honestly, for a good reason. But over the past year, I’ve have seen and worked on projects that have their JSS apps in React – the standalone version, without Next.js. […]

I remember using a slide in a presentation around a Sitecore implementation I was working on ~7 years ago. It showed something to the effect of the Martech ecosystem 10 years prior to this and how much it had exploded during that time frame (so basically highlighting the growth in Martech between ~2008-2018). Fast forward […]

In a world that’s moving at lightning speed, customers expect brands to keep up — to understand them instantly, respond to their behavior in real-time, and offer relevant, helpful experiences wherever they are. This is where Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become not just useful, but absolutely essential. The Growing Power of AI in Today’s World […]

Maybe you’ve already made the switch to XM Cloud, or maybe you’re still evaluating it as the answer to all your digital delivery challenges. Spoiler alert: it won’t magically solve everything — but with the right setup and smart optimizations, it can absolutely deliver fast, scalable, and maintainable experiences. If you’re using Sitecore Headless with […]

In my previous blog https://blogs.perficient.com/2024/07/01/sitecore-personalize-close-event-logic/, I shared a method for using cookies to enable the user to dismiss an alert banner.  This process involved writing the cookie when the user clicks the close icon and checking for the cookie when the experience is displayed.  This approach worked well because the entirety of the javascript code […]

  In my previous blog – Personalization in Sitecore XM Cloud: What’s New, What’s Different, and What It’s Built On!, I explored what makes personalization in Sitecore XM Cloud so powerful – from its cloud-native infrastructure and headless architecture to the built-in rule-based targeting engine. Now, I’m shifting from concepts to implementation. In this post, […]

In this post, I’ve listed the most commonly used Sitecore PowerShell commands for content migration. This blog continues from my earlier post: Sitecore XM Cloud Content Migration: Plan and Strategy. During migration, we created several PowerShell scripts to extract data from the legacy database to CSVs. We then used those CSVs to import content into […]
