Track Node Order Changes By User

Justin Hugelen-Padin asked on December 18, 2014 15:42

Hello,

I just wanted to know if there was any way to track Node Order changes? Sometimes people will go into Kentico and accidentally change a node order and then their menu's are all messed up. No one know who exactly did it, because it is caught late.

If anyone could help me with this issue that would be great! Either in Kentico 7 or 8.

thanks! Justin

The only thing I know of that keeps track of the node order and when it's changed is Staging. You could create a custom event handler to create a new version or write a record to a custom table possibly when the order is changed for your specific doc/page types.

Only issue with this is if you move one document, it will create two records if not more, depending on how many records you moved up or down.

Hi Justin,

Brenden is right. There isn't any event fired when the order is changed in the content tree. But I believe this could be really helpful in some scenarios, so feel free to share your suggestion with our product management on the special page: Kentico UserVoice.

Best regards, Martin
