How to Undo Changes in BeaverBuilder

Using BeaverBuilder’s built-in history and the Discard option to revert mistakes.

3 min

Made a mistake? Don’t panic. BeaverBuilder and WordPress both give you ways to undo changes — here’s how to use each one.

Option 1: BeaverBuilder Session History (Best for Mid-Edit Mistakes)

  1. While editing in BeaverBuilder, look for the History icon in the top toolbar — it looks like a clock.
  2. Click it to open the history panel on the left.
  3. You’ll see a list of recent actions in your current editing session.
  4. Click any earlier state to revert to it.

Limitation: Session history only covers the current editing session. Once you Publish, Save Draft, or close BeaverBuilder, the history resets.

Option 2: Discard (Undo the Whole Session)

  1. Click the Done button in the top right.
  2. Click Discard.
  3. Confirm — this removes all changes made since you opened BeaverBuilder.

⚠️ Warning: Discard cannot be undone. All changes from your current session will be permanently lost. Use this only if you want to start completely over.

Option 3: WordPress Revisions (For Published Pages)

WordPress automatically saves previous versions of every page. If you published a change and then realized it was wrong, you can restore an earlier version:

  1. In the dashboard, go to Pages > All Pages.
  2. Hover over the page name and click Edit (not “Edit with Beaver Builder”).
  3. In the right column, look for Revisions. Click Browse.
  4. Use the slider at the top of the revision screen to move between saved versions.
  5. When you find the version you want, click Restore This Revision.

WordPress saves revisions automatically every time you Publish or Update, so you typically have a good history to fall back on.

When to Contact Your Web Admin

If you can’t find the version you need in revisions, or if a layout element is broken rather than just content, contact your web admin. Some changes require more than a simple revision restore.
