Restore or save site versions
Use version history to recover from a refinement or manual edit that went sideways.
Overview
BaseStack creates version records when a site is generated, refined, manually saved, or restored. Version history lets you recover a better draft without starting from scratch.
When versions are created
Key points
- Initial generation creates the first version.
- AI refinement creates a new version with the refinement prompt attached.
- Manual edit saves create snapshots.
- Restoring a previous version creates a new restore version so the history remains intact.
Safe editing workflow
Steps
- Make broad design and copy changes with AI refinement.
- Review the preview before publishing.
- Use manual editing only for final small text or image-position fixes.
- If a change makes the site worse, restore the previous useful version.
Published pages are separate from drafts
Restoring or saving a draft does not always mean visitors immediately see it. Publish the updated version when you are ready for it to go live.
