Page Revisions and Version History

Overview

As you design, StretchPages automatically keeps revision snapshots of your page. This version history means you can experiment freely, compare against an earlier state, and roll back if a change didn't work out — without ever manually saving copies.

How revisions work

• StretchPages captures a snapshot of the page as you save your work.
• Each snapshot is timestamped and labeled so you can tell them apart.
• The editor keeps a rolling history of recent snapshots (up to a set limit), so your most recent versions are always available to review and restore.

Because the editor autosaves as you work, you build up a history naturally — there's nothing extra to remember.

Open the revision history

1. Open the page in the canvas editor.
2. Open the Revisions panel in the inspector.
3. You'll see a list of snapshots, most recent first, each with its time and label.

Restore an earlier version

1. In the Revisions panel, find the snapshot you want to go back to.
2. Review it to confirm it's the version you want.
3. Choose Restore to bring the page back to that snapshot's state.
4. Continue editing from there — the restore itself becomes part of your ongoing history, so you can move forward again if needed.

Example: recovering from a bad edit

You spend an hour restructuring a landing page, then decide the previous layout converted better. Instead of rebuilding it, you open Revisions, find the snapshot from before your restructure, review it, and Restore. The page returns to the earlier layout, and you pick up from there.

Tips

• Experiment without fear. Because history is automatic, you can try bold changes knowing you can step back.
• Restore, don't rebuild. If a direction isn't working, roll back to a known-good snapshot rather than undoing dozens of small steps.
• Undo/redo handles the last few moves; revisions handle bigger jumps. Use undo for the change you just made, and revisions to return to a much earlier state.
• Note that history is rolling. Only the most recent snapshots are retained, so restore sooner rather than much later if you know you want an old version.

Troubleshooting

I don't see the version I want. Revision history is a rolling window of recent snapshots, so very old states may no longer be listed. Restore from the closest available snapshot.

I restored the wrong version. Restoring is itself recorded in your history, so open Revisions again and restore the version you actually wanted, or use undo immediately after.

My latest change isn't in the history yet. Snapshots are captured as you save; make an edit (which autosaves) and re-open the Revisions panel.

FAQ

Do I have to save manually to get a revision? No — the editor autosaves and snapshots as you work.

How many versions are kept? A rolling set of your most recent snapshots is retained, so your latest work is always covered.

Does restoring lose my current version? Restoring changes the page to the chosen snapshot, but because the action is part of your history, you can move forward again. If in doubt, note your current state before restoring.
