# Restore A Page | Website Manual

**Restore A Page**

If a page went to the Trash by mistake, you can bring it back from the Trash view in the Pages list.

Coming soon

We are recording a new video for this one.

## Before you finish

Tick them off as you go.

**Not seeing your change?**

Your browser may be showing a copy it saved earlier. Open the page in a private window, or press Ctrl + F5 to reload it fresh (Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac).

If your site has a caching plugin, clear its cache too. There is usually a button for it in the bar along the top of the dashboard. Still the old version after a few minutes? Ask whoever looks after your site to clear the server cache.

### Good to know

If a page went to the Trash by mistake, you can bring it back from the Trash view in the Pages list. Restoring keeps all its content, so there is nothing to rebuild.

Current versions of WordPress bring a restored page back as a draft, so it stays hidden from visitors until you publish it again. If it was in your menu before, you may need to add it back there too.

### You needed to change one thing. Now you are learning the editor again.

Your website should be handled. Not handed back to you.
