Simple undo functionality?
Posted: Tue Jun 07, 2011 11:39 pm
Hello rob,
when I tested right-to-left text in your WonderCMS demo just now (results in 'false' as only page content, I assume that's the same issue yest was talking about), I accidentally overwrote your 'HOME' page with 'false' and the simple instructions there were lost. I actually had to restore its original content from a new local installation of WonderCMS.
In those cases one wishes for some kind of undo functionality... How about saving one or two previous versions of a SomePage.txt file to something like SomePage.1.txt or so and by doing so providing a simple undo functionality, ideally with a link or button from within the CMS, or maybe by just allowing to surf to http://www.mydomain.tld/SomePage.1 to get to the previous version and restore (copy&paste) its content?
Just as a thought -- I think a simple copy of the file to a new filename before writing the changes (or even immediately when starting to edit) could be rather easy to implement...
