After clicking on "Browse" within the Publish section of a Page or Post, you will see a screen that looks similar to the one above.

You will be able to view your revisions side-by-side, allowing you to choose which revision you would like to restore.

Across the top of the page, you will see a Previous button (top-left), a Next button (top-right) and a Slider (top-middle). You can use these to navigate between the different revisions.

When you have found the revision that you would like to restore, you can click on the button located at the top-right, below the Next button. This will either say "Restore This Autosave" or "Restore This Revision".

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

If you are using the Block Editor instead of the Classic Editor, I have just released a version of this training but for the Block Editor (Gutenberg) interface.

Chystopher, Now I know how to revert posts back, but I need the navigation window restored. Should I ask for a backup from WP?

If it is only the navigation, I.e. your custom menu, then I would just do this manually

Thanks Chrystopher. I was just playing with this yesterday when I was trying to fix my Amazon Images issue. I am still having some trouble with them. They were showing and then they were not again. A little frustrating. It may be a browser or start my computer again issue. That is what solved yesterday.
