Drupal CMS Plugin

Modified on: Wed, 2 Aug, 2023 at 4:14 PM

The Siteimprove CMS plugin is an overlay that, after installation, appears in your CMS platform informing you about issues related to the site/page that you are working on.

The Siteimprove Drupal plugin is the CMS Plugin used specifically with the Drupal CMS. The plugin works like a small version of the Siteimprove Intelligence Platform and shows information about published/live pages that are available to the Siteimprove crawler. 

The Siteimprove Drupal plugin has the added advantage of Siteimprove’s Prepublish check functionality which allows you to check for certain content issues before publishing.

Note: You’ll need a Siteimprove subscription to Prepublish in order to use the feature. Contact Siteimprove if you have any questions regarding your subscription.
