Track page usages

Tracking of page usages allows editors to see where their pages are used and in what channels. It is especially useful to see what impact editing or deleting a page would have. For example, you can check whether the page you are about to delete is used in published content and whether deleting the page may break that content.

The chain of usage starts with items that directly reference your page. These items, in turn, may be used in other items (found under Related items), and this pattern continues. Unfolding these chains of usage creates a tree-like structure, illustrating how your content item is referenced across different levels.

Usage tracking allows you to monitor items linked in the the following ways:

  • Combined content selector – Tracks usage through the Combined content selector form component.
  • Page selector – Monitors pages linked through the Page selector form component.
  • Rich text editor – Includes widgets, content fields, in-line editors, and other rich text elements.

To view the usages of a page:

  1. Open a website channel application.
  2. Select the page you want to track from the content tree.
  3. Navigate to the Used in tab to view where the selected page is used.
