View status details

The View status details quick action lets you look at the CQL conditions the content was checked against in the content status scheme applied to the space. Use it to understand why a page has its current status, or to review the raw data behind it.

How to use

Its icon appears when hovering over the content status value in the Content Status Indicator.

The dialog separates this information into three tabs.

Status tab

This tab lists all content statuses in the content status scheme applied to the space that contains the content. Color coding intuitively shows which status was assigned to the content.

Each status can define one or two CQLs:

  1. The first one tests for the content itself.
  2. The second one (optional) tests for the ancestors.

During the status refresh, the content or its ancestors are tested for the CQLs one after another. If there is no match for the CQLs of the first status, the following status is tested next, and so on, until there is a match. If none of the CQLs match, the default (last) status is assigned. Color coding also marks any statuses that were never tested because the cascade stopped at an earlier match.

CQL fields tab

This tab lists all CQL fields provided by the app for this content with their names and values.

Combine these fields into CQL queries to build powerful, site-wide searches for exactly the content you need. It can also help you troubleshoot why a CQL query doesn't match a content, by checking which fields and values are actually available.

Note that the same values are presented in a more user-friendly way in other parts of the user interface. You need to visit this tab only to see the precise field names or when troubleshooting searches.

Support info tab

This tab shows the content properties applied to the content in JSON format. CQL fields are indexed from these content properties, so this is very low-level, raw data.

This information can be useful to the Midori support team in case of troubleshooting an issue. You can also use it yourself to see the actual data behind a CQL field, which helps when troubleshooting why a query doesn't behave as expected.

Open ancestor

The Open ancestor quick action opens the ancestor page from which the current page inherits its status. Use it to quickly identify the responsible ancestor, instead of manually checking multiple pages up the content hierarchy.

How to use

Its icon appears when hovering over the content status value in the Content Status Indicator, but only if the status is inherited from an ancestor.

Clicking it takes you directly to the concrete ancestor the status was inherited from, letting you quickly navigate there if you want to edit the source of the inherited value.
