Generating reports on your content

October 8, 2024

Contents reports are reports that you can generate to monitor and troubleshoot your content.  You can generate and view:

  • Content status reports
    Find out who created and modified content, view content references and content in work in progress or workflow status
  • Language reports
    Show content with missing titles or untranslated content
  • Metadata reports
    Show pages without keywords or descriptions
  • System reports
    Find out what content that is locked, has custom cache settings, ACL inheritance overrides and also generate a site overview report

You enable content reports by downloading the Content Reports module and enabling it for your site. After enabling the module, content reports are available in Administration>Site Settings.

The Content Reports module is a Community distribution.
