# Content Management

> Manage content items across collections with advanced filters, sorting, and batch actions.

## 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.
