Hi Alejandro, Thanks for following up on this. Quentin will send you the script these days for you to rerun. However, I'm wondering if there's a way to run it automatically when a change is detected or otherwise without needing manual intervention? This way the published page will not get out of date. I am not sure what that mechanism might be but just a thought.
