Content Review module

This module helps keep your website content accurate and up-to-date, which keeps your users happy.

It does so by sending reviewers reminder emails to go in and check the content. For a reviewer this often includes checking links, grammar, factual information and look and feel.

There are two types of roles with this module.

Website owner; (typically assigned to the Administrator group) ensures that a website is accurate and up-to-date, by delegating responsibility to content reviewers.
Content reviewer; responsible for keeping a website or part of a website accurate and up-to-date.

Requirements

SilverStripe Framework and CMS

Composer installation

composer require silverstripe/contentreview

Manual installation

Download or clone the source code into the SilverStripe root folder. Rename the module folder to contentreview.

Run dev/build either via the webserver by opening the url http://<your-host>/dev/build or by running the dev/build via a CLI.

Configuration

In order for the contentreview module to send emails, you need to either:

Setup the DailyTask script to run daily via cron. See framework/tasks/ScheduledTask.php for more information on setup.
Install the queuedjobs module, and follow the configuration steps to create a cron job for that module. Once installed, you can just run dev/build to have a job created, which will run at 9am every day by default.

Usage

To set up content review schedules you need to log in as a user with the 'Set content owners and review dates' permission. This can either be an administrator who has all permissions, or by giving a group the specific permission.

To set a content review schedule for a page go to Settings > Content Review.

CMS users without the permission to change the content review schedule can still see the settings and previous reviews in the same view, but cannot change anything.
