Enable or Disable Restore Feature

When you are editing in Paligo, there may be a time where you close the Editor without saving. For example, you could have a power outage or the browser could crash. In these cases, Paligo can restore most, if not all, of the content you were working on. It does this by using a restore capability that is available in the most leading browsers.

To recover a topic that was closed without being saved, you need to have the restore unsaved content feature enabled. It is enabled by default, in the Editor settings, but you can turn it off if you prefer.

  1. Select the topic or component in the Content Manager to open it in the Editor.
