๐Ÿ“š How Versions History work?

Perfect Wiki keeps the previous versions of every page: a new version is saved as you edit, and the last 365 versions of a page are kept on any plan.

They are listed in the Activity panel next to the page (the strip of tabs on the page's right edge; on a phone, the ๐Ÿ’ฌ button under Start editing), together with the page's comments. Every edit is a sentence โ€” who changed which section and when โ€” with the exact words that changed, so you can see what was altered without opening anything.

To go back to an earlier version:

  1. Open Activity and find the edit you want to go back to.
  2. Click โ‹ฏ on that edit and choose Restore this version.
  3. Confirm with Restore.

The page then looks like it did at that moment. Nothing is lost: the text you had before the restore stays in the history as a version of its own, and the restore shows up in Activity as its own entry.
