(3)

Filter by Workflow State: Click on one of the radio buttons to filter the list of content to entries matching the workflow state selection.

(4)

(5)

(6)

View by Title Click: Click on one of the content titles to view that content entry. If you hover your mouse over a title, a tooltip appears presenting the content's excerpt.

(7)

Actions Drop-down Menu: Click on one of the drop-down menus in the Actions column to see and use actions available for each entry, including View, Edit, and Delete.

(8)

Lazy-load Scrollbar: When there are many more content entries than can fit on-screen, only enough entries are retrieved to fill the display. When you use the scrollbar, additional entries are fetched. This means that scrolling might appear to be slightly slower than you might expect, but it allows filtering, sorting and initial display to be much faster when you have hundreds or thousands of content entries.

(9)

Buttons: The buttons at the bottom right provide the ability to add a new content entry, bulk delete selected entries, or bulk change the workflow state of selected entries. The buttons for bulk operations are be disabled until one or more entries are selected by clicking on the desired rows in the grid.
