If you have a good edit that's still available as a version, you can bring that up and click on edit. You get a warning that you're editing an out of date version of the page. If you click on save, you've effectively rolled back to a previous version, even one several versions old. But it's not as easy as the rollback link, of course.

But the one click rollback only goes one edit deep. To rollback once a page has been saved by two different IP numbers, you have to copy and paste to do it. Mediawiki has a deep change history.

What you say is certainly true but I didn't think newer stuff had that prob. I work with PhpWiki 1.2. It certainly has the problem you mention. Roy.
