Recover slot contents

At a glance

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?

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

OOleg Isonen

unfortunately no, can't recover from the published version

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.

hhilmi

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

OOleg Isonen

that's terrible, I feelya

OOleg Isonen

would problished version saved you that?

OOleg Isonen

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

hhilmi

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

hhilmi

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

OOleg Isonen

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

hhilmi

That is indeed too dangerous.

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