nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Hello @Marcel Plomp (inactive) ,

In Confluence, when we edit a page it connects to latest Published version.

You can check with others, May be someone restored an old version or , Opened any old version page from History.

Thanks,

Anvesh

No. That is not the case. No old version were restored.

I have a test user available for....euh ....testing. He sees the latest version in the Published mode,. So he is viewing the page as it should be.

When he start editing something totally different shows up....and that is basically the first initial version of the page.

We had the same things start happening out the blue yesterday. We haven't done any updates on Wiki recently, so it isn't related to that. I did find if they click on the button with the three dots next to Close in the Edit screen they were given an option to "Revert to last published" which set the Edit page back to the most recent version.

It would however be nice to know what caused it to start happening in the first place an whether there is a global fix for it.

Hi Dana,

Which version do you use?

We are also experiencing the same issue. I had previously shut down CE due to another issue we were having with it. We just upgraded to 7.13.7 (server) and I had turned it back on on Monday. Now we are experiencing the same issue with users going into a page in Edit mode and an older version suddenly appearing. This is a HUGE problem.

In Edit mode, (Elipse ... ), Revert to previous version:

We are also experiencing the exact same issue, and there is no resolution in sight. We currently have CE disabled.
