Page History displays a summary of past edits on a page. Each past edit is shown in a box which shows lines added, changed or deleted during that edit in a before & after format.

Below each box is a "Restore" link. Clicking the link will open an edit box with the page as it was before that edit. You can make changes or simply click Save to restore the text.

There are two additional options specific to PageHistory:

  • Hide minor edits - hides any edit that the author marked as 'minor'.
  • Show changes to markup- shows changes to the markup (as opposed to the normal display which shows changes to the output).

A page's history is kept for the number of days given by the $DiffKeepDays variable (set by the site's Wiki Administrator). When a page is edited, any page history information older than this value is automatically discarded.

PmWiki can't process your request

PmWiki needs to have a writable /home/persistent/ directory before it can continue. You can create the directory manually by executing the following commands on your server: 

    mkdir /home//home/persistent
    chmod 777 /home//home/persistent
Then, reload this page.

Or, for a slightly more secure installation, try executing 
    chmod 2777 /home
on your server and following this link. Afterwards you can restore the permissions to their current setting by executing 
    chmod 755 /home
.

We are sorry for any inconvenience.
