Retrieve previous versions of a document or WordPress page

Microsoft, Google and WordPress automatically keep saved versions of content you create. Here’s how to find it.

Note of caution: restoring a previous version will permanently delete the current one, so it’s a good idea to copy and paste any content you want to keep into another file before clicking save on anything. 

WordPress (Elementor)
  • Go to the menu in the top left of the screen
  •  Click the second item – History
WordPress (WordPress editor)
  • In the Post section on the right, 
Google Workspace
  • In the top right, look for a clock with an arrow around it.
  • Additionally, in Google Sheets, if you right-click on a cell, you can see its edit history.
