Running Searches

No comments Leave a comment »
The left hand menu of the CMS interface has a "Search" feature which can be quite powerful for running reports.

Recently we created a new TS website for our unit. The old ts webpages were moved to http://old.ts.vcu.edu.

The new TS website was considered a "soft launch" and was running side by side with the old site as content was moved. I needed to run through the entire project and identify where editors had linked to the old.ts.vcu.edu site for evaluations on what content was missing and most prominent, as well as make sure these links were removed when we canned the old.ts.vcu.edu site completely. This is an example of where the search feature is particularly useful.

I choose "search" in the left menu, then in my criteria I put in the old.ts.vcu.edu address. 67 page results were returned with the last editor and original editors eID so that I simply have to contact them and tell them which pages to update.
