# Recover unsaved changes in the editor

If you closed the builder or lost the tab before saving, reopen the same page in the same browser: the editor shows **Unsaved Changes Found!** and lets you **Recover** your draft. Then click **Save** so the work is stored for real.

## Steps

1. Open the page again — **Online Store → Theme Settings** and pick the page, or **Landing Pages → Edit** for a landing page — in the same browser and device you were using.
2. In the **Unsaved Changes Found!** dialog choose **Recover** to restore the draft, or **Discard** to drop it and start from the last saved version.
3. Check the canvas, then click **Save**. Drafts are only kept in your browser; they are not synced to your account or other devices until you save.
4. For small mistakes while editing, use **Undo** and **Redo** in the top bar instead.
5. If your store has several languages, note the editor's warning: changes made in a specific language only apply to that language version, so save each language you edited.

## Common problems

- No recovery dialog appears → the draft was created on another browser or device, or the browser data was cleared; drafts are stored locally and can't be recovered elsewhere.
- Recovered the draft but the store still shows the old version → recovery only restores the editor; click **Save**, then confirm the page is **Published**.
- Saved in English but the Arabic or French page is unchanged → each language is saved separately; switch the editor language and save again.
- Draft contains old work you no longer want → choose **Discard**; the last saved version stays untouched.
- **Save** reads **Nothing to save** → the recovered draft matches what is already saved.
