Versioning / version management

With the versioning module, you can use Weblication^® CMS to manage old document versions in an audit-proof manner. A new file version with a consecutive version number is automatically put online by the content management system each time a publication is changed, and the previous version remains available for viewing at any time with its version number.

The version also stores who put the file online and when and, if applicable, who released the version via the release workflow.

You can easily restore old versions of files with a new version number at the click of a mouse.

You can use the version comparison to visualize the differences between any versions. Deleted content is crossed out and highlighted in red and new content is highlighted in green.

Version management displays the available versions and compares the versions to be compared in the version view. You can call up version management via file editing ("Show versions" button).

'Versions':

The available versions of a file are listed in this window. The current version is at the top.
Each version is displayed with the corresponding version number, date and time and the user who edited the file.
You can compare two versions using the radio button behind each version. The difference between these versions is highlighted in color on the right in the 'Version view' window.

'Version view

':

In this window, the difference between the versions to be compared is highlighted in color. The content area (content1) from the corresponding files is compared for this purpose. If other components of a page (e.g. metadata) are to be included in the comparison, this content can be provided via the PHP framework in the content area for the version view.
Deleted content is crossed out and highlighted in red and new content is highlighted in green.

'Restore version x':

By clicking on this button, the selected version is applied without confirmation. The version is only restored when the file editing is saved.
The previous version is automatically copied and saved as the last version with a new version number. The original version is retained when the file is restored.
