    Hello,

    I'm a super user for my DNN account but don't see any page history button in my edit bar. I would like to be able to revert any page to a previous version, but don't see this option. Please advise.

    Thanks,

    Peter

      Peter,

      in my understanding this is not an option on the page level, but a function of the module - if it supports a history.

      This is the case with the HTML/Text module, if you go to "Edit Content" you find a button labeled "Version History" at the bottom.

      Happy DNNing!
      Michael

        Michael is (as always) correct, the history is not at page level. The reason for this is the modularity of the CMS. A page can have so many variations that there are many scenarios where there is no 'state'. Say, I have a homepage with 'my links', that could be quite different from your 'my links'. 

        In order to be able to roll back content, you can indeed look at the version in HTML. In a module like Live HTML (Mandeeps) you can even see the difference highlighted between versions.

            When you go to "Edit Content" in a Text/HTML module, you find a bottom "Version history" on the bottom of the edit page.

              By clicking on the version history button you can access the version history of specific Text/HTML module
