Rendering Page Snapshots

A snapshot of a Page captures only those data and metadata fields that are rendered by a specific Page Template (the Page Template configured for this Page by default). You can change the Page Template in the Publication properties Workflow tab.

About this task

You can create a template to, for example, show Workflow-specific information such as who made the changes and when.

Rendered Component Presentations (a Component and its Component Template) can include binaries published from Multimedia Components or by using byte arrays (via template scripting). These binaries are stored with the Activity Instance. When Process Histories are deleted or purged using the Purge Tool, associated binaries are removed unless they are being used by other items. As there is no way to compare the content of binaries, the content of both is displayed.

Procedure

  1. Open Content Manager Explorer.
  2. In the list view, select a Publication and in the Ribbon toolbar and click Properties.
    The Publication window opens.
  3. Click the Publication Workflow tab.
  4. In Templates for rendering audit snapshots, choose a Page Template from the drop-down list with which to render Page snapshots.
  5. Click Save and Close.
