Undo mistakes in Elementor

Made a change and want to go back? Elementor has two ways to undo: a quick step-by-step undo for changes made during the current editing session, and a Revisions list to jump back to any previously saved version.

Undo a recent change

The quickest way is the keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Z (Windows) or Cmd+Z (Mac). Each press steps back one action.

You can also use the History panel for more control:

1. Click the History icon in the top toolbar (the clock icon — it’s the third icon from the left).

2. The History panel opens on the left, showing the Actions tab — a list of every change you’ve made this session, newest first. The current state has a tick (✓) next to it.

   

3. Click any earlier action in the list to jump back to that point. Your page updates instantly so you can see what it looked like then.

Restore a saved version

If you’ve already published and want to go back to an older save:

4. In the History panel, click the Revisions tab.

   

5. The Revisions tab lists every time the page was saved, including autosaves. Click a revision to preview what the page looked like at that point.

6. If you want to restore it, click Apply. If you change your mind, click Discard to leave the page as it is.

Good to know

• Actions only lasts for the current session — if you close the editor and come back, the Actions list starts fresh.
• Revisions are saved automatically and also every time you click Publish, so you can always roll back to any published version.
• Elementor keeps a good number of revisions, but very old ones may be cleaned up over time. If something important got changed weeks ago, contact us and we can check the server-level backups.
