Copilot Integration, Last call: Speaker application for Orchard Harvest 2026 - This week in Orchard (01/05/2026)

This week, Mike Alhayek shows how to use Copilot directly inside Orchard Core!

But before that, check out some code where you can see that, starting now, Orchard supports static data migration methods, and suppressions are no longer required for migration steps that don't use instance state.

Welcome the first contribution from Jack Liu, who made the pagination of the List Part configurable to decide whether to show a full pager with page numbers or just the arrows to navigate to the previous and next pages.

Do you know that since 2013, we've been working with Óbuda University in a hands-on way to teach web development? If you are interested in our Orchard Core courses at the university, check out our post on our site!

As we mentioned, we started publishing last year's Harvest recordings to YouTube. Check them out for some inspiration, and don't forget to apply to be a speaker for this year's Harvest by the 5th of May, midnight, anywhere on Earth!

Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge - Results

On the last (third) day of this year's Orchard Harvest we announced the results of the Orchard community's second module development competition, the Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge. The amount of submissions may be small ("only" 6), though in quality they certainly made up for it. The top 3 places are the following: MiniProfiler by Daniel Dabrowski Inline Editing by Matías Molleja Dynamic Forms by Cybage Software Pvt. Ltd. Congratulations to all participants! We also had the opportunity to bring in Daniel, the author of the winner module via Skype to the conference, where he did a live demonstration of the capabilities of the MiniProfiler module. For more information and the details about the event please visit its website and see the "Rules" page. If you'd like to know more about the last Orchard Harvest, you may want to read our reports written on-site about each day: Orchard Harvest - Day 1 Orchard Harvest - Day 2 Orchard Harvest - Day 3 Happy Orcharding until next time!

Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge has begun!

In case you haven't heard from the Lombiq content network and its neighbours, a module competition named Orchard Spring Harvest Challenge has begun yesterday! The aim of this contest is to give Orchard module developers some more motivation to upgrade their old modules to Orchard 1.8, or create new ones that are compatible with latest version of Orchard. You can find more information on the event's (DotNest-hosted) website.
