4 min 58 sec — Revert, save, and publish

​
What you will learn

How to save your work, publish an approved version to the live site, and return to an earlier saved version when needed.

​
Save vs publish

Save & publish and Publish require publish permission. If you only have permission to save, a colleague with publish permission can publish a saved version.

​
Going back to an earlier version

Open History in the toolbar to see saved versions, including the current and published versions. Each entry records who saved it, when, and its message. To work from an earlier version, select Switch to this version. It loads that version as your current draft; save or publish it when you are ready.
Switch to this version replaces your current draft. Save your current work first if you may need it. Revert discards every unsaved change and returns to the last saved version.
