How to Find Your Content in Drupal
Step 1, Click on 'content'
- Log in to Drupal
- Go to 'content' in the upper left corner. In some cases, you may need to click 'manage' on the upper part of the screen in order for the content option to appear. Don't worry about the drop down menu that appears when you hover over content.
- Click on content.
Step 2, Search for your content
Once you click on content, you'll see a tool that allows you to filter by different types of content. There are different ways to search for your content:
- Content type
- Title
- Page path
- Author
Option 1, Search by title
Searching by title is a good option if you know the title of your page. Your page title is whatever is used as the H1 on a page. It appears on the page's billboard.
Looking for your page by title will pull up every page that also shares the words you're looking for. As you can see in the example page, searching 'primary care' pulls up pages with primary care in the title.
Tip—Hovering of the name of a page without clicking it will show you the url path in the bottom left of your screen.
Warning—Searching by title is not the most effective way to search for your page. For example, if you are trying to find an orthoaedics pages and enter 'orthopaedics' in the search box, not every ortho page will appear. This is because not every ortho page uses the words 'orthopaedics in their title.
Option 2, Search by page path
In almost all cases, searching by the url path is your best option.
- Copy or enter your url path. You want to use the entire url up until the /.
Example—/orthopaedics/specialties/hip-pain/dysplasia
- Search for your page.
Your page will appear in search results. Since all page paths are unique, your page should be the only one that appears.
