Items as resources part 2 reports

When working with items as resources within Sitecore, there are scenarios where you want to know which items have been overwritten and which items contain a specific .dat file. But how do you do that? For example, by creating a “Find overwritten resource items” report in Sitecore PowerShell.

Within Sitecore it is extremely easy to overwrite items stored in a .dat file. Of course you want to prevent this from happening, you do this by making the user aware of this by creating a pop up warning. The ‘how to’ is described in part 1 of this blog series: ‘Items as resources by Sitecore part 1: warnings’ and in the video I created regarding part 1 and part 2 of this blog series.
