Note: This feature is available only in the Enterprise Editions of PHPKB software.
Admin users can choose which data columns they wish to see on the manage sections in admin area, based on which information you find most important per section.
The table columns on manage articles section of admin area are dynamic means you can select/unselect the columns of your choice for increased screen area and get the desired tabular view. This is useful as different users have different needs. For instance, feedback manager might be interested in columns such as "Hits", "Ratings", "Comments" and "Feedback", on the contrary a content writer would be more interested in columns such as "Title" and "Updated Date".
How to use dynamic columns feature?
On Manage Articles page, click on the "Columns" drop down and mark the columns you want to show and un mark the columns you want to hide. The columns you have marked as hidden will stay hidden for the current session unless they are made visible from the columns selection menu. This feature is available only in enterprise editions.
Why are the benefits of dynamic columns?
- To only show essential data relevant for different users.
- To minimize horizontal scrolling as much as possible and making the screens more manageable by reducing the number of fields.
- Data columns are available for viewing but hidden from sight.
- To incorporate much more information from different user perspectives without damaging the display.
