Using history

Pages history includes content block history out of the box. Blocks have their own versioning and can be viewed as part of a pages History.

Finding historic versions of content

Whenever you modify a block and save it, a new version of the block is created and the old version is saved in the history section of the CMS. You can view the older versions by navigating to the History tab of any block, which will show you a list of each version, the date it was modified or published and the user who actioned the change.

History section

You can select a specific record to see a reference of what the content block looked like at that version.

If you want to revert a content block back to an old version, simply choose the record you want from the list and click the button Revert to this version in the bottom Action toolbar.
