Setting Up Rollbacks


Rollbacks are saved copies of previous versions of a page that enable you to return a page to a state prior to the last published version. Basically, they serve as backups in case something goes wrong in the publishing process or the content that is published is incorrect. The Rollbacks category of the Administer Website dialog box (see Figure 32.19) enables you to turn rollbacks on or off, as well as indicate how many versions of a page should be maintained if rollbacks are enabled.

Figure 32.19. In the Rollbacks category you can choose whether or not Contribute maintains previous versions of pages that are edited.


Note

About the only drawback to enabling rollbacks is the fact that the backups require storage space. However, setting rollbacks to a reasonable level, such as three levels back, shouldn't require a substantial amount of space unless you work in a large corporate environment where major page changes are made on a frequent basis. If your organization has a comprehensive backup plan, it is probably a good idea for you to discuss the level of rollbacks allowed to ensure that your workgroup can return pages to a previous state if necessary.
