Please join us online for an evening of all things Umbraco - the latest news, community chat, and a talk or two!

For 2026, we will be running both in-person and virtual meetups, alternating every month. For those who can't join in person, virtual attendance is available too, so you can join us no matter where you are!

This month, we have Justin Neville talking about Umbraco Search and how to migrate your code from Examine to Umbraco Search.

Justin Neville - From Examine to Umbraco Search

Umbraco 19 replaces classic Examine with built-in Umbraco Search, so most custom search will need work. The add-on runs on 17 and 18, letting you migrate early. This talk covers installing and querying it, porting typical Examine code, and a live demo of a faceted multi-site search built four ways.

Whether you are an Umbraco novice or a seasoned developer, this is your chance to meet like-minded people to talk about our favourite friendly CMS! No matter what your role is there will be something to learn and your chance to meet other members of the Umbraco community from Kent and the surrounding areas.

What if your documentation could write and update itself while you work, instead of becoming outdated the moment you finish it? Join us as Umbraco MVP Dean Leigh explores how AI can help create and maintain developer documentation and user manuals as part of the Umbraco development process, including practical tools and techniques to keep everything current.

See how AI can take the pain out of documentation and make it part of your everyday development workflow.

Ever wondered how Umbraco gets from a security report to a patch release? Andy Butland, Head of Umbraco CMS, walks us through how Umbraco handles security, then Craig Stevens shows how to set up a Linux workstation for Umbraco development. Come along for two talks, refreshments and conversation. Spaces are limited, so grab your place!

Doors open from 18:30 and we'll look to get started around 18:45. We'll finish by 21:00, when we take the conversations to a local pub. -----

Patch Day: How Umbraco Handles Security by Andy Butland - Head of Umbraco CMS

Security releases have been landing thick and fast, and the wider web has had its share of headline-grabbing vulnerabilities too. So what actually happens behind the scenes when a security issue is reported? Andy will walk through how the team approaches reports, fixes and releases, and the trade-offs that come with each decision (there are more than you'd think). Then it's your turn: we'd love to hear what works for you, what doesn't, and what you'd change. Come ready to ask the awkward questions. -----

Umbraco on Linux: Setting Up Your Dev Workstation by Craig Stevens

Think you need Windows or a Mac to build Umbraco sites? Craig will show how to set up a Linux workstation for Umbraco development.

-----

Our hosts, This is Embrace, will kindly be providing some refreshments. Space is a bit limited, so if you can no longer make it, please update your RSVP to No so people on the waiting list can take your place.

----- If you would like to contribute to our meetups, please get in touch by email (hello@umblondon.co.uk) - we are always looking for people to give talks, or London-based Umbraco agencies to host us for the evening. Please read the Code of Conduct for all our events.

Hello Umbracians, umBristol is the Bristol meet-up for people who work with Umbraco CMS. New members always welcome, whether you're a developer, editor, or just Umbraco-curious, we'd love to have you along.

We continue our Umbraco Bristol events with two hands-on talks, hosted by the team at true at Generator Building in central Bristol, with the usual food and drink provided for the evening for you to enjoy.

Please note: This is a free event. You do not need Meetup Pro to attend. Please ignore any upsells when registering.

The talks for the evening will be:

• "Great platforms aren't enough: Lessons from a 5 year transformation journey" by Saskia Jury What do you do when your first attempt doesn't work and your customer loses faith? I want to explore the reality behind digital transformation: setbacks, stakeholder turnover, changing priorities and the challenge of maintaining momentum over years rather than months. My talk will share how persistence, continuous improvement and a relentless focus on outcomes transformed a stalled initiative into one of the most successful client migrations we've delivered. I hope to provide lessons that every transformation team can take away about expectation management, platform maturity and earning the right to scale.
• "A client’s guide to Umbraco for enterprise organisations" by Rich McCloskey As Umbracians it can feel like the obvious choice to ‘choose Umbraco’ - but we have to recognise that for enterprise organisations the decision making process is complex and varied. We will take you through the process we went through with our client Hunter Douglas to understand how Umbraco was the right choice for them, how the tools they use such as Umbraco Cloud, Commerce has enabled their ambition over the last year since launch, supports their scale and where they plan to go next.

Agenda:

• 🚪 18:00 - Doors open
• 🍕 18:15 - Food and drinks
• 🌷 18:30 - Welcome/news
• 🗣️ 18:45 - Talks commence
• 🏠 21:00 - Home-time

Hope to see you there!

Search is evolving rapidly with the rise of AI, intelligent search experiences, semantic search, and personalized content discovery. Traditional keyword-based search is no longer enough to meet the expectations of modern users.

Join the Umbraco Users Group India for an engaging session exploring The Future of Search with Umbraco. We will dive into how search capabilities in the Umbraco ecosystem are evolving and how developers can leverage modern technologies to build more relevant, intelligent, and user-friendly search experiences.

Whether you're an Umbraco developer, solution architect, technical lead, or an enthusiast, this session will help you rethink how search can be implemented in your Umbraco solutions.

Hello Umbracians,

umBristol is the Bristol meet-up for people who work with Umbraco CMS. New members always welcome, whether you're a developer, editor, or just Umbraco-curious, we'd love to have you along.

Heads up, our "socials" are not general networking events, they’re Umbraco meet-ups with a relaxed format - we’ll likely still be talking tech!

We've booked the mezzanine at the back of the Lounge for our December social - where Christmas jumpers and festive attire is encouraged. Come and join us for an Umbracian catch-up and order your own food and drinks.

Miro Lounge is located in Paintworks, a short walk from Temple Meads or busses 1, 57, 349 & X39. There's also limited car parking available in Paintworks - lift share if you can!

Hope to see you there!
