WordPress Preview Revisions Plugin help editors to preview the revisions with exact same content that would look like on the frontend.

WordPress Preview Revisions ⚡

• The plugin is used to check the front-end preview of the older content revisions of a page/post, just as the preview mode is used in a current draft.
• Upon going to the revisions list, a preview button will be available to preview exactly how a page or post appeared in the selected version.
• Note: This has also been submitted as a feature in the core ticket. Once this gets merged into the core, you will no longer need the plugin.

About 💡

• To enable editors to check and restore the previous content, whenever needed, WordPress has a handy revisions feature.
• However, the current limitation of the revisions feature is the lack of a preview option. While checking a previous revision, the editors can only see the content changes in the draft, but not the visual appearance of how it renders over the front end.
• To address the same, we have developed the WordPress Preview Revisions plugin, which enables the preview option for every revision, empowering the editors to take an informed call on what to restore.
