In this example, I have added some Lorem ipsum content spanning a few paragraphs. I then converted these paragraphs from the Classic Editor to the new WordPress Blocks.


Note: This process will work for any changes made to the page/post, not just the Classic to Block conversion.


Over on the right-hand side you will need to ensure that a block is not selected OR you need to ensure that you have clicked on Document instead of Block. You will then see "Revisions" along with a number, which is displaying the total number of revisions/autosaves that it has captured and stored. Please click on "Revisions" to view the available revisions.

When you are ready to proceed, please click on the Next Page button below.

I tried this today but it did not work for me. I believe it was because my post was created in Elementor. I clicked on the'restore this revision' but nothing came up and I could not do any editing.

A very useful reminder thanks. I have panicked in the past, forgetting about the historic versions.

Very good to know. I have been in this position in the past and I did not know how to revert back to a previous version. This will be very useful.
