What Is Editor Version Control?

Version Control tracks all changes to your page and lets you restore previous versions anytime.

Think of it like saving multiple drafts of a document—if you don't like the new version, go back to the old one.

Version control means:

  • Every publish creates a version
  • You can see all past versions
  • You can restore any old version
  • Never lose important work

Common Situations & Quick Fixes

Situation 1: "I Loaded Wrong Version"

What's happening: Loaded a version, realized it's not the right one.

Steps to fix:

  1. Don't publish yet(critical!)
    • Don't publish wrong version
    • Just go back to version control
  2. Load correct version
    • Go to Version Control
    • Load the right version
    • Editor updates
  3. Publish correct version
    • Now publish the right one
    • Correct version is live

Result: Fixed without going live with wrong version


Situation 2: "Version I Want Is Not in List"

What's happening: Can't find the version you need.

Diagnostic steps:

  1. Check date
    • Is the version older than your plan's history?
    • Plans keep last 10-30 versions or 30-90 days
    • Very old versions are deleted automatically
  2. Check if published
    • Did you publish that change?
    • Only published changes become versions
    • Draft edits don't create versions
  3. Ask when version was made
    • If looking for client version
    • Ask them when they published it
    • Look for that date in version list
  4. Contact support
    • If version should exist but doesn't
    • Support might be able to help
    • Or suggest rebuilding from available versions


Situation 3: "I Restored Version But Changes Are Gone"

What's happening: Loaded old version, lost recent edits.

Explanation:
This is expected!
When you load old version:
- Old version replaces current content
- Recent changes are gone
- That's the point of restoring

To get recent changes back:
- Load a newer version
- Or press Ctrl+Z to undo the load
  - Or don't publish the restored version



Situation 4: "I Published Old Version by Mistake"

What's happening: Loaded and published wrong version.

Steps to fix:

  1. Don't panic
    • You can fix this with version control
    • Nothing is permanently lost
  2. Open editor again
    • Go back to editor
    • Open Version Control again
  3. Load correct version
    • Find the version you wanted
    • Load it
  4. Publish
    • Now publish the correct one
    • Correct version is live now

Result: Fixed in a few steps
