Recover Content from Old Pages due to Misdeletion from Formatting Issues? 3 years 11 months ago #84052

On vpoo.toastmastersclubs.org/roles.html, how do I recover the content for all meeting roles that was deleted by a formatting issue where it kept adding additional blank bullet points automatically as a bug? It wiped out 2/3 of the content and we don't have a back-up to recreate it. How can we revert to the last saved version or recover the old content?

If this doesn't exist, can this be a new feature?

virtual.parliamentarians Topic Author Offline Senior Member Posts: 59 Thank you received: 1	Sorry, do you notify subscribers when documentation is updated too? In addition, can you provide the full or correct URL for recovering pages from the cache? The link provided gives a 404 error message at support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc/item/r...nt-from-google-cache.

However, does Google cache pages that are only viewable by members or officers? The instructions seem to only work for public pages cached by search engines. Any other way of recovering the content for our Leadership Roles page as of today?

Back when I started backing up my custom pages I ran into this too. Clicking the 'Edit this page' button in the top right corner will display the 'Save contents to file' option but you'll get that error message on any new page that you made using the custom web pages tool. Notice that it works correctly on the Home page and Meeting Info/directions.

The solution is here. Pay particular attention to the indented bullet point in the instructions;
