Hi Sukrity,

Your newest release 21.3. makes it really difficult for us to handle recurring deliveries in combination with AEM. Validation in AEM is now mandatory. This is absolutely not practical for us since we send many recurring newsletters every day which we don't want to validate every time. Also: When we do subsequent changes in Campaign the corresponding workflow fails, because it wants to validate the AEM-Mail again.

How can we deactivate this new feature in Campaign?

Regards, Michael

Hi @Michael_Reitberger,

I have shared the same with our Product team and they will get back to you soon.

Thanks!

Hi @Sukrity_Wadhwa ,

unfortunately no answer from your team 'til now. We already lost a couple of thousand dollars because of this new "feature". 

Any suggestions/tips could be helpful how we can deactivate the mandatory AEM-Validation.

regards,

Michael

Hi,

After the 21.3 release, we are having issues with dynamic content in the Email Designer. When creating dynamic content in an email using the Email Designer, the different content versions is not visible in the left panel, and the user interface freezes (no response when for instance clicking on the icons for links, layers or structures in the left panel). I can save the email, and if I'm opening it in the legacy editor, then it seems possible to access and change the different dynamic content versions and edit their conditions. This makes no sense and does creating emails for us with personalized and dynamic content an extremely tedious task..

Creating/editing dynamic content in the Email Designer worked perfectly for us in 21.2.

Is there an easy way to fix this so that we don't need to use the legacy editor for dynamic content in emails?

Cheers, Martina

Hi @martinas5200630,

This was a certificate expiry issue, and was not related to the 21.3 release for Adobe Campaign Standard. This should be resolved now for you and everyone else who was facing this. 

Thanks!

Hi Team, hi @Sukrity_Wadhwa 

changing the filtering options on "Profiles" is a disimprovement in our opinion.

I think it was already introduced some versions ago and then withdrawn.

No we don't have a free text search and combining several filtering criteria isn't possible anymore. As we have many custom field filters it's getting really worse.

Here's the initial post from @xavierv6303633

Can you explain why it has been introduced again and revert it again?

Thanks, Thomas
