Own Your Digital Future

Digital autonomy, practical AI, and safer decisions in uncertain times โ€” in Maastricht, September 2026.

๐ŸŸ๏ธ Meet Blicca โ€” the new name for Ploneโ€™s server-rendered frontend.

Formerly known as "Classic UI", Plone Blicca reflects a clear commitment: this frontend is actively developed, fully supported, and here for the long term alongside Plone Volto.

Same frontend. New name. Bright future.

One last Strudel, at Vienna Airport, before flying home, to my girls. After a week full of lovely landscapes, great wine and food, shared with great people, some of them whom I'm calling dir friends. Exchanging ideas and working on #Plone the best #CMS, we all know it ๐Ÿ˜‰. Wo got quite some stuff done, I would say. Thanks a lot for @thet for organization this wonderful #plone #sprint and having us all once again. #bssp
Bi aste eman ditut etxetik kanpo #Plone hobetzeko antolatutako bi garapen sprintetan: #BeethovenSprint Bonnen eta #BuschenschankSprint Spielfelden (Austria).
Laburpena egitea zaila da, baina komunitatean horrelako ekitaldiak antolatzea, gure eguneroko lan tresna hobetzeko modu ezinhobea da. Ideiak partekatu, eztabaidatu, ikasi, ikusi eta disfrutatu. Aukera ezinhobea. #CodeSyntax @plone Eskerrik asko KitConcept eta @thet antolatzeagatik eta babesle guztiei posible egiteagatik.
Back home after a week at #Buschenschanksprint working on #Plone
Thanks for a wonderful week!

It's free, open-source and available on GitHub and npm.

If you're running a modern Plone setup, this integration is worth a look: https://www.onlyoffice.com/blog/2026/05/onlyoffice-connector-v1-0-0-for-volto?utm_source=social&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=fosstodon

#ONLYOFFICE connector for Plone v4.1.0 is out.

This release adds fillable #PDF forms to Plone, so you can build and fill structured forms directly inside your content management setup. It also brings Plone 6.1 compatibility and 21 new language templates for empty files, which is a nice touch for teams working across multiple locales.

The connector is free and open-source, as always.
