To track the translation status of your pages in Scroll Documents, you can use the Content by Label macro. If you enter the label NEEDS-TRANSLATING the macro can help you provide a list of pages that require translation before publishing .
To fully benefit from the translation features, we recommend using Scroll Documents together with its extension app, Translations for Scroll Documents. To learn more about this, refer to the following resources:
Create a Tracking Page
To effectively track pages that require translation, we suggest creating a dedicated tracking page. You can set up one page with the Content by Label macro or create multiple pages, each corresponding to a different language. Here are some suggested locations for the tracking page:
-
In the author space, on a page outside of your document's page tree
-
In the author space, on the "Versions ofβ¦" page
-
In a separate space

How to Track Pages that Need Translation
To set up a tracking page for pages requiring translation, follow the steps below:
-
Choose or create a suitable page where you can monitor your translations.
Tips: If you donβt want the report to be published with your document, consider using a page which is not a part of your Scroll Documents page tree.
-
Open the Confluence editor.
-
Insert the Content by Label macro.
-
In the βLabelβ field add the label NEEDS-TRANSLATING to list all pages which requires translation.
-
Click Add a filter.
-
Search for the filter βSpace(s)β and define which space/s you want to take the data from.
Tips: If you need to filter for a specific language and version, you can use the "With title" filter. Add the version and language prefix of the desired pages, such as (V1-fr) for French or (V1-de) for German. This will help you narrow down the results and focus on the relevant content.
-
Click Save to close the macro dialog.
-
Save the page.
Well done!
