While working on the content and design of a website, you can save
several copies of each site to the server and restore sites from the
saved copies (also referred to as snapshots). Saving site copies can
be useful in the following cases:
- You want to prepare several versions of the same website, so that you
can later load them for review, choose the best designed or the most
appropriate version, and publish it to the Internet. - You want to make significant changes or experiment on the site design
or content, but be sure that you can safely undo the changes should
anything go wrong.
Note: Pictures from the Image Gallery modules are not saved in
snapshots. Images are stored on your customer account.
