eZ Platform Enterprise Edition (with Studio)

• You can now use our eZ Personalization service to create highly personalized landing pages. The Studio Personalization Block available out of the box lets the editor simply create a block that will render a list of content items personalized to each and every visitor. The interface lets the editor decide which of the Personalization scenarios configured in the eZ Personalization back end should be used, as well as the template to be used for rendering.

• You can now take advantage of the Date-Based Publishing feature – when editing a draft, instead of publishing the content immediately you can select the date and time at which it will be automatically published. All your content scheduled to be published are accessible in a dedicated widget on the dashboard.

• Create forms in your Landing Page using the Form Builder. A special Form Block allows you to add forms with different types of fields to the Landing Page. This system has been designed to be extended, so that you can create your own form fields. The system also provide an interface to access the data that has been collected, and download it as CSV files.

Submitted results can be previewed in the UI or downloaded in a CSV file, and a designated person will be notified of submissions by email.

• Additional release notes coming!
