Versions are missing from Version history
What you are seeing
Versions are missing from Version history.
#Why it happens
Entries saved within 15 seconds of the previous shown one are collapsed so rapid auto-saves do not flood the list, and the list never shows more than the last 50 ('Limited to the last 50 entries').
#What to do
Expect both behaviours; they are deliberate.
#Limits that apply here
Limit | Value | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Version history entry limit | 50 | Beyond 50 versions the panel shows 'Limited to the last 50 entries'. |
Version list de-duplication window | 15 seconds | Versions saved within 15 seconds of the previous shown entry are hidden from the list, so rapid auto-saves do not flood it (migration-era versions are exempt). |
#A few things that catch people out
Version history is a staging action, not a restore, and it hides entries saved within 15 seconds of each other and never shows more than 50.
