That could an another grammatical error as content is the content but
not the contents of something.

For reference a quote from Cambridge dictionary below:

>Content and contents are nouns.
>
>Content (uncountable)
>
>Content as a singular noun is uncountable. It means the ideas that are contained in a piece of writing or a film or a speech:
>
>    This film has adult content; it is not suitable for children.
>
>    His speech was very flowery, but it lacked content and was quite superficial.
>
>Content can also mean the amount of a particular substance contained in something:
>
>    These hamburgers have a high fat content; they’re not good for you.
>
>Contents (plural)
>
>The contents of a book is the list of chapters or articles or parts that are in the book, with the number of the page they begin on:
>
>    If you look at the contents, you’ll see there’s a chapter on
>    Japanese folk music.
