Granular Control over Staging
Is there a more granular way to control what objects are recorded for staging? For instance, we generally want to track object changes, but not User Site Settings updates. It just adds a lot of transactions that will never be staged to the next environment.

RE:Granular Control over Staging
Hello,

You are able to choose what will be synchronized, please take a look at the Developers Guide:

1. What can be synchronized
2. Synchronizing the content

Best regards,

RE:Granular Control over Staging
Thanks for the reply. The links that you provided only point to a manual way of filtering out the items we don't ever want moved when we do a manual move. Inevitably, if something is added to the staging log, someone will accidentally migrate the change. I would prefer the ability to select which groups of global objects get log in the Site Administrator>Settings>Staging>Client (Source Only) section instead of just all Global Objects.

What I was looking for is to have more granular control of the logging of staging entries. For instance, I only want to enabled logging for specific Global Objects, like templates, document types, products, but not users.

I thought maybe there was some place else that I could set this, evidently not. Thanks.

RE:Granular Control over Staging
Hi,

Yes, another option is to select global objects which will be synchronized via:
CMSDesk -> Tools -> Staging -> Objects
Please, don't forget to enable Log content changes and Log object changes in CMSSiteManager.

I hope this will help you with this specific issue.

Best regards,
