View CMS Content Details in Enhanced CMS Workspaces

The content detail page in enhanced CMS workspaces gives a summary of a content item. If the content item has variants, you can switch between them from the left navigation menu. In the center column, see a quick view of the content. View content details, version history, and see where the content is published or referenced. Edit, publish, or unpublish, and run content workflows for your content.

Details

The Details card shows you key details about your content item. See when and by whom it was created and modified, publication status, and content slug.

Note
Note Note: A content slug is a name that is added to your site’s URL to help identify the page. The slug is initially based on your content’s title, but doesn’t always match it. You can edit the content slug, as long as it's a unique name to the workspace, without spaces.

Versions

Version History shows all versions of a content item, its status, and the date and time it was last modified. With this point-in-time snapshot of your content, you can compare versions and see the date and time they were published.

Closeup of the version history card

Your most recent content version is marked Current. In the Version History card, your content can have a status of Draft, Published, or Revised.

  • Draft: Content that hasn’t been published, or published content that has been unpublished
  • Published: Content that’s published and live on your site or other channels
  • Revised: Published versions with new edits that haven’t been republished

Use the restore arrow to open a previously published version as a new draft. Save the draft or publish it as a new content version. If you close the draft without saving it, your content version history remains unchanged. Restoring a previous version as a new draft overwrites a current version in Draft status.

Note
Note In instances where one content item is referenced in another content item, the container item displays the most recent version, even in a previously published version of the container item. For example, say you create a content collection in October that references an image of a yellow hat. In December, the collection is updated with an image of a red hat. If you open the collection version from October, it displays a red hat. To avoid confusion, update the collection with an entirely new image file, rather than updating the picture within the image file. In other words, replace “yellow-hat.img” with a new image file called red-hat.img”, rather than updating a “hat” file with a new picture.
