Archive and Rollback
With clients starting to edit page content, would be great to have the BC fallback - archive and rollback functionality.
The BC 'Archive and Rollback' saved more than one client, and was a selling feature that helped reassure clients.
An 'undo' functionality in the Visual Editor would be great too.
Thanks!

We've got rollback now on Pages and WebApp items, and will continue to roll it out in further areas on Siteglide over time.

Matt Walter: Will rollback help in a deleted situation?

Urszula Richards: No, since there's no item to view to rollback.

Helen Eichel thanks, great suggestion.
I think we planned to do something for this within the "Staging to Production" and "Draft Mode" tasks, but it's good we have a stand alone task specifically for "Archive and Rollback" too.
As you know, for now it can be manually requested if needed, but having it in the UI would be fantastic.

Martin Sanderson: that is great - I did not know you could manually request a roll back, so that is excellent

This is an incredibly important feature. Without a way to rollback to a previous version immediately, you simply cannot allow customers, or non-developer employees to make site edits.

Mark Anderson: - This will certainly be on the development roadmap for 2021. In the meantime it's possible to track changes via GitHub, or reach out to our Support team to rollback changes in the event a customer should break a page and it's not immediately obvious how to fix.

Matt Walter: Hi Matt - As a non-developer who is dangerous with code, and I can speak for my clients as well - not having a roll-back option makes even making simple changes feel like walking a tightrope with no safety net. Yes - I understand that I can make a copy of the page code first, etc. -- but this platform is being promoted as a platform of the future. No customer is ever going to have the confidence to make page edits without a rollback in case they mess something up. As someone who basically learned to code on BC - this was absolutely my most used feature.
