We’ve all been in the position working on our websites where we wish we could start over and undo everything. With Composer, you have some different options to help you out. This article will show you three ways.
Revert changes before publishing
Let's say you are making changes on a page but haven't published again and decide you'd like to undo those changes. This is the perfect scenario for using the Restore tool. Click on the 3-dot More Action Menu on the bottom-right of the Composer window, and click on the arrow to undo all unpublished changes to the page.
But what if you’ve already published?
Restore back to another previously published state
Now you can restore pages even after they've been published a second time... or a third time... or many times! The Page Restore Utility tool allows you to open up a screen to see all published versions and choose which one to restore back to.
Confirm your permission level
In order to access the Page Restore Utility tool, an admin user must have one of the following permission levels:
- Global Composer Pages permission level of View, Edit, Publish, & Delete or higher.
- Granular Composer individual page level of View, Edit, Publish, & Delete or higher.
Here's how it works:
Step 1: With your page open, expand out the 3-dot More Action Menu on the bottom-right of the Composer window, then click on the arrow wheel to open the Page History Log.
Step 2: At the bottom of the Page History Log, click Open Full Page History.
Step 3: The Version History page will display. Confirm the correct page name at the top to be sure you are restoring the page you are wanting to restore!
Step 4: Click the restore button for the version you would like to go back to.
Step 5: Click on your page in the Page Tree to confirm the right version was restored, and then Publish your page.
