New Undo/Redo buttons in the Confluence editor

Hi Community! I’m Rachel, a Product Manager on the Atlassian Cloud Editor team. I’m pleased to let you know that we’ve started release of one of your top feature requests - undo and redo buttons!

It’s not just the buttons that are new. Over the last few months we’ve been working to improve the predictability and behaviours of undo/redo - whether using the keyboard shortcuts (Mac undo/redo: cmd + z / shift + cmd + z | PC undo/redo: ctrl + z / ctrl + y), or using the new buttons. Undo and redo should now “just work”!

A second undo… re-does? 🤨

For those of you who have been waiting for these buttons, we thank you for your patience!

Thank you for the buttons!  Not having undo has been one of my biggest frustrations when editing pages.

Am I right, that the undo redo memory is not preserved after publishing the page?

So basically writing alot of text (which gets safed as draft automatically),

then deleting it (accidentally),

then publishing the page,

will remove that text entirely from memory?
