Page Tool

Description

The Page Tool is the central command center for managing pages in dotCMS. It gives content and marketing teams a clear, comprehensive view of every page across a site—presented in a fast, searchable, and highly usable interface. Instead of navigating page trees or opening pages one by one, users can scan, filter, and act on pages from a single, purpose-built management screen.

Pages are displayed in a sortable, filterable table that surfaces the details teams care about most—title, URL, content type, language, status, and last editor. From the same screen, users can also create new pages, making the Page Tool the natural starting point for both day-to-day page maintenance and larger site-wide initiatives.
