Restore Revision
-
I can’t restore a revision. I see it in the list of revisions under the text editor, press the “restore this revision” blue button, when in the revision comparison mode—doesn’t restore!
I can’t select it from the list under the text editor, must go to “Revision Compare”Thanks, Fred

To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

Do you also encounter this issue in a different browser? for example Internet Explorer or Google Chrome?
Otherwise let us know what revision you want to restore on which page or post.

Please restore revision: 5/27/13 10:44 to “Chapter Two Hermann Goering”
When I press “Restore this revision” it acts as if it will do so; however, the revision is not restored. There are words just before ” (Add more here, his early life)” that are in the revision but do not appear after I go thru the “Restore This Revision” process.
Thanks for your assistance.

It did not work. The revision does not show. There are 8 paragraphs of the 5/27/13 10:44 revision, above the phase: (Add more here, his early life) that do not appear on the page. They do appear in the 5/27/13, 10:44 revision comparison. but will not restore. Should I try to copy them from the revision and paste them on the page??

I actually do see those paragraphs on https://fherbert2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=265&action=edit
Can you please try clearing out your browser cache?

Your search – https://fherbert2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=265&action=edit – did not match any documents.
The above error is what I get when trying to look where you are.
I was working on fgherbert.com -
He was 19 years of age when he received his army commission, assigned to the 112th Infantry Regiment Headquarters at Mulhouse.

There are 8 paragraphs in my revision of 5/27 10:44, right here, between “….Headquarters at Mulhouse.” and “(Add more here, his early life), that do not appear in your revision or on my page!
______________________________________________________________________(Add more here, his early life)
I could not simply cut and paste because when I tried to copy from my 5/27 revision, the revision, two revisions would copy from the comparison.

I can’t understand why I do not see the missing paragraphs on https://fherbert2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=265&action=edit, and you do. I see them in the revision, but they are not on the page, even after “Restore This Revision”.

I just cleared the cache again and tried to restore my 5/27/13, 10:44 revision. There is a notice that the page is restored to that revision; however, the page does not contain all the paragraphs in the revision. Honest—-that’s the way it is here.

This A.M., I tried to revise “Chapter Three, Charles Lindbergh” and then restore the back to a previous revision. It worked.
I than went back to restore my 5/27/13, 10:44 revision of “Chapter Two, Hermann Goering”. It did not work.
I still can’t understand why I do not see the missing paragraphs on https://fherbert2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=265&action=edit, and you do. I see them in the revision, but they are not on the page, even after “Restore This Revision”.
After breakfast, I will try to print out the 5/27/13. 10:44 revision, that I can not restore, and then dictate it, with Dragon, directly to the page in an attempt to recover. -
The revision you were referring to contains the content showing on the right side of the revisions page.
That same content was restored to your post at https://fherbert2.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=265&action=edit . Or were you referring to the left side (coloured in red) ? If so, that’s the revision of 14 May, 2013 @ 13:52:33.
