# Roll back to an earlier version

> Not happy with a change, even one you already published? Go back to any version.

Every version of a page is kept, so you can always go back to one you liked.

### 1. Open the page's look

Open the page (for example **Home**) and choose **Look**.

### 2. Find the version

Open **Version history** and tap the version you want. It opens as a preview, so you can make sure it is the right one.

### 3. Restore it

Press **Restore this version**. It becomes a draft, and **Unpublished changes** appears at the top.

### 4. Publish

Press **Publish**. Within about half a minute, everyone sees that version again.

Nothing is deleted along the way. The version you just replaced is still in the history, so you can restore it later.

> **Tip:** Versions you set aside with **Don't want this** are at the very bottom of the history. Press **Restore** to bring one back.

You can also ask an AI to roll back: "Put back the version of my home page from last Tuesday." Publishing still waits for your confirmation, unless your [AI permissions](https://docs.ownsite.me/ai-permissions) allow the AI to publish.

## Undo a settings change

A page's **Settings** decide what it stores and how: who can see it, its language, its blocks and their fields, and a journal's kinds and questions. Settings take effect at once (there is no draft), so every change is kept instead, whoever made it: you in the app, Ownsite AI, ChatGPT or Claude.

### 1. Open the change history

Open the page's **Settings**, scroll to the bottom and open **Change history (N)**. Each change says who made it, what changed and when, for example "Claude added a journal kind: Reading". The newest is marked **Now**.

### 2. See what changed

Tap a change. What was added is green, what was taken away is red, what stayed is grey.

### 3. Undo it

Press **Undo to before this change**. If later changes came after it, you are told first: they are undone with it.

Nothing stored is lost: a field, a block or a journal question that comes back brings back everything written in it. Undoing is a change of its own, so you can undo it too. Each page keeps its last 50 changes.

When Ownsite AI changes a page's settings, its reply has a card with **See what changed** and **Undo**; after undoing, the card offers **Restore**. Going back to something more open (for example back to a Public Page) needs your confirmation in the app, as any such change does.
