Viewing and Restoring Page Versions

Every save and every publication of a page is added to the Version history card as a version. You can view an earlier version or restore it into the working copy.

Viewing a version

1. Open the page and scroll down to the Version history card.
2. Press View on the version's row.

A dialog shows the version's title, summary and text, with a tab for each language.

Restoring a version

1. If the page has unsaved changes, press Save first.
2. Press Restore on the version's row.
3. Confirm the dialog.
4. Check the restored title and text.
5. Publish the page to show it on the site.

Restoring creates a new version, and the earlier versions are not deleted. The restored content does not show on the site until you publish it. The publishing steps are in Publishing and Scheduling.

Restoring puts the version's content in place of the working copy. So while there are unsaved changes, the Restore buttons are disabled and the Version history card says what to do. Saving the page does not change the page on the site.

Restoring a policy version

A restored policy version comes back with its own label and effective date. If that label was published before, enter a new label in Version label before publishing. A label that was published before cannot be used again.

You cannot restore a version on an archived page.
