Ability to undo or discard changes for CMS editors

Clients often make mistakes when editing their website and the fact that they have to go back and completely redo what was there before seems unnecessary. I'm surprised this wasn't already on the wish list.

    Would be nice to have it. 8 years on wishlist seems a long time for such a simple feature

    Almost 8 years later, surely you guys have an intern who can implement this.

    When will you add undo functionality? Well it's just not serious.

    Webflow is a builder and editor and should be able to undo otherwise it's scary to edit some articles, I couldn't even think that I could break an article and not be able to undo.

    And any change is saved and you can't undo one or more actions!!!
    Well just nonsense every time to restore the entire site from backup for the sake of one article.

    Please add this feature. I would put it at a pretty high priority.

    It's insane that this is not yet possible..

    An undo or discard changes would be incredibly helpful for some of our clients. It would make them much more confident and the process of editing much simpler. Thanks!

    items like this literally make us use a different tool. You are not the only player for building nice websites. I get you need to make money, but trust me, these simple features that have been asked for many years know are deal breakers and are costing you money.

    This has been an ask since 2017. It's nearing a decade. Please, just let us undo. Or explain to people why you can't.

    Summarizing my first 10 minutes with Webflow Editor:
    -Erased text by mistake and now the block disappeared so no way to put the text back.

    -Willing to redo all my changes manually even if not optimal, but discarding unpublished changes is not even possible

    -Wish I had researched web platforms better before choosing Webflow

    I've been using Webflow since the beginning...and I had this conversation with a client recently and thought surely they've added the undo button by now...surely! But alas....this is such a frustration for clients.

    My organization just switched to Webflow from WordPress. If I had known of this, I would have thought twice. It's very strange!

    Basic functionality that should be prioritized over new features, etc.

    Is there any update on discarding unpublished changes? Clients really need this.

    Can't believe it... it was our client's first and main question and our team looked unprofessional, as w had no adequate answer ...

    Come on Webflow, this is always a painful conversation with clients, it makes clients very uneasy and reluctant to publish changes at all.

    New Webflow user, just had my first handover to a client and had to try and understand with that person why they can't just undo what they did in the demo..


    This is ridiculous, can't believe this problem has been around for so long. (7 years!!) Undo is supported in the Designer already.. AND I can undo changes I've done in Editing mode if I go back to Designing mode. !

    This blows my mind and affect the confidence I have going forwards with Webflow.
