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.
Tracking limitations
The system does not track or display usage of pages in notifications. You should manually check whether a page is used in notification emails before making any significant edits or deletions.
Similarly, the system does not track usage in custom fields added to extendable system object types or in custom classes. If you’re managing pages linked this way, it’s important to manually confirm where they’re used before performing changes.
To view the usages of a page:
- Open a website channel application.
- Select the page you want to track from the content tree.
- Navigate to the Used in tab to view where the selected page is used.
