What is Page History Module
The Page History Module tracks all changes to page content. You can easily see all previous versions of content and roll back if required. The HTML difference engine shows you what content was changed by who on which date
Why you would use Page History
Page History allows you to see the history of the pages on your website and all its changes over time. It's a log of what has been done to any page. You can review and compare current versions to previous versions and see all the changes made. You can also revert a page back to any previous version if something happens.
