We're interested in making the per-target publishing information available to users in a way that works for all customers. See comments from Product Management below and feel free to offer more examples of Publishing Targets and customization to the main list view.

We'll likely offer per-target information "on demand," though we're seeing if we can get similar data in the main list itself (that performs well and works for any number of targets with minimal configuration). Votes and more examples can help increase attention for this enhancement request. :-)

Add icons to List view to show if Page / Component is published to Staging or Live

Add small circle icons to the GUI List view to indicate if an item is published to Staging or Live, in their own (small) Column.  Max to 2 or 3?  90%+ of customers have only 2 environments they publish to from a given Publication.  Maybe configured per Publication, and configuring which target is mapped to which color circle icon.

This is very helpful as in the normal content creation flow, content is created, then published to Staging, reviewed, and then published to Live.  Sometimes, content is only published to Live but not to Staging, and we would like to Publish to Staging.

Allowing a max of 2 targets to be configured per Publication keeps the GUI looking clean and minimal....

This would already be a huge improvement to the existing GUI where this information is unavailable in the list view.

  • Some of us have three or more targets. We couldn't wait for SDL to provide this functionality like other CMS's have so we did it ourselves, but we'd prefer it to be out of the box.

    It has different states represented by different icons.

    NotPublished: white border with grey dot (border shows row selected state)
    Published: green border with white dot (green donut)
    LatestPublished: green border with green dot (solid green circle)
    Stale: yellow border with yellow dot (solid yellow circle)

    It also has a tooltip when you hover over any of the icons that shows more information about the publish status for that target.
