Feature Request - Location Where Components Are Used

Beta
#1

Hi Charlie,

This one may not be possible, but if it is, is there any way that a Component’s Manage Element area (see screenshot below) is able to show on which pages an exported Component is used.?

For example, a section at the bottom of the area shows a list of either the page name, or its Cornerstone URL (e.g.: https://www.domain.com/cornerstone/edit/218). Even better, for things like buttons or off-canvases, could this differentiate between headers, footers, Layouts (single and archive) and pages?

This is just a thought, but it would make life so much easier, especially on larger websites, to find the pages where each Component is used.

Have a great weekend!

This has been asked before and I can try to get this into the next major release. Have a great day.

Sorry to have added to the burden, but this would be immensly useful for sanity, nevermind workflow!

You could take this even further and add the same info to templates, headers, footers, elements, variables and so on.
