Recover slot contents

Question

Hi, I made the mistake to copy over a slot to another page, then removing the contents of the slot and editing it in the new page. I now lost the contents of the slot. CMD+Z did not help. I do have the correct version published. Is there a way to recover?

Oleg Isonen · Answer

cmd+z would help, I guess you reloaded the page in the meantime?

Oleg Isonen · Answer

unfortunately no, can't recover from the published version

Oleg Isonen · Answer

I will discuss with the team if we can build some short-term feature before we have full versioning/branching available. This is really not great.

No reload, CMD+Z worked for X clicks, then it did not do anything anymore. Well in that case, I will have to build it again.

hilmi · Answer

That would indeed be really great! Luckily in my case it will take just 2/3 hours to fix.

Oleg Isonen · Answer

that's terrible, I feelya

Oleg Isonen · Answer

would problished version saved you that?

Oleg Isonen · Answer

I mean if you restored from published version you would have lost some other work too, no?

hilmi · Answer

Yeah, but much easier work. The lost work takes much longer to recreate. And I copied the new version so I could paste it back

hilmi · Answer

You are giving me some hope with that question 😆 is there a way for you to rollback my project?

Oleg Isonen · Answer

in theory the data exists, but there is not UI for this, doing this manually in the database is dangerous and time intense

hilmi · Answer

That is indeed too dangerous.

hilmi · Answer

Let me just recreate the old version. Thanks for the quick replies
