Recognizing the difficulties of switching between the master and versions of a content, we've created a solution that displays both versions side by side for easy comparison.

The new and unique side-by-side view is a power tool for all content editors working with variants of their content items. Situations typically include:

  • Translations
  • A/B testing
  • Versions for different social media platforms

Translations made easy

Understanding the challenges of navigating between the master version and its translations, we've developed a solution that allows you to have both versions of an item displayed side-by-side. This innovative feature is designed to significantly facilitate the translation process, saving you time and enhancing the quality of your translations.

With the Side-by-Side View, you can easily compare texts, ensuring accuracy and consistency across different languages. It's perfect for professionals who need to manage or produce multilingual content, offering a seamless, integrated experience that simplifies your workflow.

Activating the side-by-side view in ContentPaul

Activating the side-by-side view is easy: select your version and then click the button «show master version» in the right navigation bar. Now your master version will appear on left. It is locked and cannot be edited. While on the right side you have your version and can edit all of the content blocks.

A/B testing iterations under control

The same benefits apply to A/B testing: if you want to see the tweaks you've made for the alternative version, the side-by-side view allows for quickly identifying the parts of your content that have changed, enabling further iterations.

Easily compare versions for different social media platforms

Additionally, creating versions for different social media platforms has become essential as each platform has unique requirements and user expectations. The side-by-side view supports this by allowing you to tailor content specifically for platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. This ensures optimal engagement and performance on each platform by allowing you to compare versions simultaneously, adjust for character limits, media formats, and audience engagement strategies—all in real time. This not only boosts your content's relevance and appeal but also increases its effectiveness across diverse social media landscapes.
