How do I restore a page to a previous version?

Show History

Each time a page is published, a new version of the page is created and the previous one is moved to the history. Use the page history to track and restore all versions of a page. You can view the history of a page by clicking the Page History tab below the Page Summary, to the right of the Pagelets tab.

The Page History tab displays version numbers, the page name of the version, the last modified (published) date of the version and the user who made the modification.  The workflow history of a version (including when it was created) is on the Workflow tab of each page version. If you would like to view the workflow notes for all versions of the page, click the Show Workflow Notes link available in the Page Summary area in Full Edit mode.
