v8.11.3 - Maintenance for fun .... yeah, it's not even fun.
This is a minor patch release of uSync for Umbraco v8.
Updates
- Make the UI display a nice name as opposed to the filename GUID in the UI
- Sort the culture values on node names so they are more consistent
- Add a health check for culture name sorting (so you can sort old files with no change)
- Capture any published fail messages in the logs, so we can see why they failed
- #436 Fix the true/false serializer for when there is neither a true or a false (e.g a null!)
- Add Sync Variant object to Sync items, so uSync.Complete can tell people more about what cultures are published, saved or just not there.
uSync 8 - is in its support phase - meaning we will be issuing no new feature releases. it will enter a security only phase in Feb 2024 at which date only security updates will be issued until it reaches end of life in Feb 2025 - these support phases match the Umbraco v8 support dates.
v11-rc3 - Release candidates come in threes.
This is a release candidate release of uSync for Umbraco 11 - it is for testing etc. not recommended on production sites
The release candidate for Umbraco 11 (rc-3) is here. Don't worry you didn't miss RC1 and RC2 - we just didn't release them.
v11-rc3 is branched from the v10.3 release of uSync so has all the same goodies. There are only a few minor differences for v11 (so far)
Internal Updates
- Change of the root static assets folder from wwwroot to wwwroot/uSync (for neatness)
- removal of the package.manifest file (didn't get used anyway - caused unnecessary git changes)
Non changes of note
We still haven't changed the default folder for uSync from uSync/v9!
We didn't change this for v10 a move many (including myself), thought might have been a mistake, but given how little actually changed in terms of formatting etc, we left it at 9 so upgrades where easy - now v11 is here, we could right this wrong,
but now I am not sure 🤔 - does changing this to v11 now actually confuse people even more, it's like we've all become use to the folder being called v9 even though we are on v11, shall we just leave it at v9, and we will come up with a better naming convention when we get to a meatier upgrade? If you have any thoughts, we would like to hear them. in this release notes discussion thread
To get uSync.
You will need to be running Umbraco 11-rc3 - https://our.umbraco.com/download/releases/1100
dotnet add package uSync --version 11.0.0-rc3
That is it.
v10.3.0 - Not the BlockList Grid update. 🚫
This is a minor patch release for uSync for Umbraco it contains fixes and some minor updates.
uSync 10.x releases are fully backward compatible with all Umbraco 10.x versions - but as always we recommend you update to the latest version when you have a chance.
Fixes
Updates
- #419 Add the ability to ignore content items by content type
- ef3bab4 Add notification messages for UI should uSync have a problem exporting on save, delete or move.
- Pre support for block list grid*
**support for blocklist grid as it appeared in 10.3-rc1 if internal structures changes before 10.4-rc this will require updating. *

Fixes
#417 - Logging missing when a sync fails because of tab/group aliases being incorrect in files.
Updates

Full Changelog: v10.2.0...v10.2.1
v10.2.0 - ⬆️ Upload ⬇️ download
This is a minor release of uSync containing fixes, and things features that are not breaking changes.
Fixes
- #413 - uSync 10 converting JSON Numbers and bools to strings on export
- Typos - mainly in comments ( cea0a5d, 98d3093, 286cade)
- Sims who are on fire will no longer be forced to attend graduation before they can put themselves out
Updated
- Upload / download buttons (#411) adds the ability to upload or download the uSync folder from the dashboard (for admins only)
- Add back a .targets to silently remove old uSync 9 app_plugins folder on build (related to #414)
Upload / Download
The new upload / download feature allows you to grab a zip file copy of your uSync folder from the dashboard.
under the everything group there will appear an "Export to file"
and "Import from File" options
When you import you are given the option to pick the file and do a "normal" or "clean import" - A clean import will wipe the current contents of the uSync folder before the zip file is unpacked into the folder.
This feature means you don't have to copy the uSync folder to disk , it is not as powerful or clever as the import/export in uSync exporter which will gather all the dependencies and can include other files (such as views and templates) but it does give you a quick way to get things onto a server.
Full Changelog: v10.1.0...v10.2.0

Upgrading v9 to v10
Migrating from uSync v9 to uSync 10 shouldn't be to hard,
- none of the file formats for the uSync files have changes
- All the same features exist for uSync 10 as did for uSync 9
We have moved to using a Razor class library for the static files (so javascript, html) that is used in the backoffice for uSync and as such uSync will nolonger put any files in app_plugins/uSync -
After upgrading to uSync 10 you shoud either:
A. Remove all uSync files from app_plugins
or
B. run dotnet clean the the clean up will remove the files for you.
After upgrade uSync should still be there and everything will sync like just before.
Migrating v8 to v10
If you are migrating a site from v8 to v10 then there will be code changes etc you will need to make to your views and custom code, but if you want to import all of your settings and content uSync will do that for you.
uSync 8 will store data in /usync/v8 if you copy / rename this folder to /uSync/v9 then uSync 9 and 10 will import the settings and content into your new v9 or v10 site
