Elevating flexibility in the Universal Editor

The Universal Editor revolutionizes web development by offering a framework-independent editing environment, integrating seamlessly with various data sources and rendering engines.

This session will focus on how to customize your authoring experience. Plug in your own custom capabilities and disable those you don't need easily using extensions and filter definitions. We will also go into different tips and tricks for easy transition of your existing web pages to UE authorable pages.

Could be possible to have Composite Mulfields in CFs using Universal Editor or still we need to use workarounds to use it?
(see answer in talk video)

Arnold

Will the Universal Editor be available for on premise AEM Versions and not only for aacs?

Wojtek

I guess it was just said on the presentation that it will be available in Q4 :)

Michael

Will the Universal Editor eventually replace AEM Sites Page Editor?

(see answer in talk video)

royteeuwen

Konrad Windszus

How do you support Safari when leveraging CHIPS? Acording to https://caniuse.com/mdn-http_headers_set-cookie_partitioned it is not supported yet...

Sharanya

We are working closely with Apple's Webkit Team to get Chips enabled

Anian Weber - TechDivision

Are there any guides or best practices for migrating from the AEM Sites Page Editor to Universal Editor?

Sharanya

Migration: not yet. It is not planed to have feature parity between Universal Editor and Page Editor

Can you restrict components to different roles/permissions?

Sharanya

Restriction on Roles/Permissions: in theory possible when the components-definition/fitler-definitions are created on the fly in aspect of the user

Tad

Are the Forms features you demo'ed in UE for "Forms in AEM Sites" or "AEM Forms Cloud Service"?

Sharanya

It's for AEM Forms as a cloud service. But we can enable it independent of forms addon also if required (that would require some engineering effort on our part)

Beo

When talking about forms. its AEM Forms with aem-forms-core-components?

Sharanya

Aem forms core components are just a technical dependency for this feature as of now. The developer need not know about core components as such

Krish

Is universal editor is the future replacement to the AEM page editor? Does the AEM pages can be edited using universal editor going forward?

Jurgen Brouwer - AmeXio

Duplicate of question 3?

Sabine

Will something comparable to policies still be available (changeable w/o deployment by users)?

artur

No, time has shown that templates & policies are 95% maintained by the developers and not users.

Sabine

Is the Universal Editor CSP compliant (current RTE is not)?

artur

Not sure about in which aspect. In general, I'd say yes.

Ben

Will all features be available in the on prem case?

artur

From Editor perspective itself yes. But there will be many extensions which are around EDS & Crosswalk which won't be available for on premise customers.

Masoud Rozati

Universal Editor works quite well with a local AEM. But the Asset Picker does not. Are you aware of this issue and would this be fixed in the future versions?

artur

For local AEMCS SDKs the aem65 plugin should be used which enables the AEM built-in asset picker.

Mariia Lukianets

Is it possible to bring your own RTE instead of customizing existing one?

artur

For the Properties Rail this is possible via Extensibility. For in-context edits, this won't be supported.

Masoud Rozati

Does Universal Editor have any limitations in terms of nesting components? Use case: Main section > Tab Container > Tab Item > Teaser List > Teaser Item
