  SOLEIL, the French 2.75GeV synchrotron light source is delivering photons to 24 beam lines and is presently equipped with 22 insertion devices (ID) including a high field and small gap in-vacuum wiggler*. This paper presents the continuous work performed to reduce the strong non linear effects of several IDs. On one side, the ID defaults have been precisely identified using on-beam measurements, and magnetic correction developments are going on, especially for the in-vacuum wiggler and for the 10m long HU640 undulator. On the other side, a new optics has been optimised in terms of beta-functions (at the ID location) and non linear dynamics in order to improve the injection efficiency and the beam lifetime in the presence of IDs. The modified optics has been used daily in operation since November 2010 and ensures a beam lifetime greater than 10h for a 400mA stored beam with the users ID configuration. In parallel, an extensive experimental optimization has been performed to prepare the operation with an additional quadrupole triplet that provides double low vertical beta functions in one long straight section that will accommodate two canted in-vacuum insertion devices**.

  SOLEIL delivers photons to 24 beamlines. Up to 22 very diverse insertion devices (IDs) are now installed on the storage ring, and 4 more will come by summer 2011, including a Cryogenic undulator and an electromagnetic/permanent magnet helical undulator, both designed and built at SOLEIL. Work is continuing on beam dynamics and magnetic corrections to reduce the nonlinear effects of all these IDs. A new optics incorporating an additional quadrupole triplet in one long straight section has been successfully tested and will be put in operation by fall 2011. A new coupling correction will also be implemented to maintain the ratio of the vertical to the horizontal emittances at 1% for any IDs configuration. The electron beam orbit stability has been significantly improved reaching a residual noise of 300 nm RMS. Photon LIBERA modules of X-BPM located on the bends, will be integrated soon in the orbit feedback loops. 4905 hours have been delivered in 2010 to the beamlines with an availability of 96.3%. The user operation with the maximum current of 500 mA is foreseen to start by fall 2011, after the completion of the radiation safety tests of the beamlines.
