I have content editor on my team site where I added several links. But today while adding some new links, content editor crashed. so now when I tried to open site containing content editor, browser stop working.
The quick solution is:
I can delete the existing content editor and create a new one (using ?contents=1 in the corrupted team site). But since my content editor contains lot of links, so is there a way where I can roll back content editor to previous version (till yesterday afternoon)?
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Your previous version is probably lost in the mess. You will have to go to the site admin, and close / delete the webpart and start over. You may be able to simply close the web part (from site admin) and then edit the web part properties to salvage it's contents.
Either way, content should not be added directly into a Content Editor Web Part (for this reason.) Instead, use the option to point to a file in a Document Library elsewhere in your SharePoint site, with versioning enabled.
Then, in the case of the CEWP blowing up the page from an edit to the contents, you can revert to the previous version of the document, and the CEWP will immediately be updated, and the page immediately restored.
