Page Versioning in SP Page Builder tracks changes made to a page and restores previous versions whenever needed. This feature helps protect your work by keeping a history of edits and providing a safety net during design experimentation. You can view and restore previous versions of a page if needed. It can be useful when your client will delete/damage something.

How Page Versioning Works

When you save a page version, each version stores:

• Page layout structure
• Content changes
• Addon configurations
• Styling adjustments

In Settings > Versioning on Save, when it is enabled, a new version will be automatically created each time you save a page. This allows you to keep a history of changes and revert to previous versions if necessary.

To enable the page versioning feature on your website, first go to SP Page Builder Pro > Settings > Advanced > Enable Page Versioning: On > Save. Toggle the “Enable Page Versioning” option. You can also disable that feature using the same switcher.

Enabling the "Enable Versioning on Save" option will automatically generate a new version of a page each time it's saved in SP Page Builder. Without that, saving a page will not generate a new version; it will only overwrite the current one. 

Each page version can be accessed through the Version History, where you will be able to see the version name, author/user name, and version notes.

Accessing Version History

To view version history:

1. Open the page in the SP Page Builder editor.

2. Click the Show Version History option from the 3 dots dropdown option in the top right corner.

3. A list of previously saved versions will appear with timestamps and editor information (if available).

4. Simply select any version from the list to restore it.

Managing Versions

Add a New Version Manually

1. Click on the “+” icon.

2. Add a Title and Note for this page version to help identify its purpose and changes.

3. Hit “Save”.

4. Your page version will be created manually.

Rename, Restore and Delete a Page Version

When you hover over a page version, you’ll see a three-dot menu (ellipsis). Clicking it reveals the following options:

• Rename – Change the name of the selected page version for easier identification.
• Restore – Revert your page to this version, recovering its content, layout, and settings.
• Delete – Permanently remove this page version from the version history.

Previewing Page Versions

You can preview existing page versions from the version list before restoring them. Simply click on a version to view its changes, then click “Restore this Version” to revert your page to that selected state.

Search for a Page Version

You can search for a page version using its title, date, or notes.
