Content Management

​

Overview

Content Management is the centralized operations view at /content/manager. Use it to manage content across collections from one table instead of opening each collection separately.

​

What you can do

• Search by title or excerpt.
• Filter by collection, status, CMS sync state, and featured image state.
• Filter by created date range and publish date range.
• Sort by title, collection, author, word count, created/updated date, schedule date, publish date, and status.
• Open items directly in the editor.
• Open live URLs for published items synced to CMS.

​

Batch actions

For selected items, you can:

• Set status to published.
• Set status to draft.
• Schedule items for a selected date.
• Clear schedule (publish_at = null).
• Delete selected items.

​

Status behavior

Content Management uses three practical statuses:

• Draft
• Scheduled
• Published

Legacy scheduled rows represented as draft + publish_at are shown as Scheduled.

​

Collections and plan access

Skayle supports multiple content types through collections.

• Articles collection is available on all plans.
• Additional non-article collections (Answers, Glossary, Guides, Comparisons, Troubleshooting, Templates, Tools) require the Authority plan.
• On non-Authority plans, non-article rows appear as plan-locked and are read-only in Content Management.

​

CMS sync signal

Each row includes CMS sync state:

• Synced for items already published to connector CMS.
• Not synced for items not yet synced.

This helps prioritize publishing and cleanup workflows.

​

Typical workflows

• Editorial QA: filter to drafts without images or without authors.
• Scheduling pass: filter by collection, select items, and batch-schedule.
• Publish operations: filter to scheduled/published and validate sync state.
• Cleanup: filter stale drafts and batch-delete in one action.
