Preview, Restore, and Manage Page Edit History with Page Versioning
Ever wished you could recover a layout after making changes you later regretted? With the latest SP Page Builder update, you can!
Introducing Page Versioning, a feature that lets you bring back previously saved layouts whenever you need them.
Page Versioning works by storing a saved version of the layout. As you continue editing and updating the page, these saved versions build a history you can revisit anytime. From the version list, you can quickly review earlier versions and restore the one you want.
Just remember to click Save whenever you make changes. Each save creates a new version, giving you a reliable way to return to an earlier layout whenever needed.
With Page Versioning, you can:
Create new versions manually: Besides creating versions automatically when you save your layout, you can also manually create a new version at any time. Simply click the “+” icon, add a version name and a note, and save it to access whenever needed.
Preview Versions before Restoring: Before restoring a page, you can preview its previous versions to see exactly what changes were made. This helps ensure you select the right version without losing any important content or layout adjustments.
Restore page versions: If you need to roll back changes, simply select any earlier version from the list and restore the page to that design.
Rename or delete versions: Keep your version history organized by renaming versions for clarity or removing ones you no longer need.
Manage versions from frontend and backend: You can manage page versions with ease by adding, restoring, renaming, or deleting them directly from both the frontend and backend editors of SP Page Builder.
Now it’s your turn. Try out this new feature and see how it simplifies your workflow.
