I accidentally deleted a section

Heads up: Katalyz doesn't have a built-in undo or revert for deletions. There's no "Undo" toast, no version history, no trash bin. Once you confirm a delete, the only recovery paths are limited — and they all depend on acting fast.


If you just deleted text inside a widget — try Ctrl+Z


If the deletion happened inside a text widget you were typing in (a word, a sentence, a paragraph), the browser's native undo may work:


  • Windows / Linux: Ctrl + Z
  • Mac: ⌘ + Z


This is the browser's undo, not Katalyz's — so it only covers what you just typed or deleted in that input. As soon as you click elsewhere, refresh, or navigate away, it stops working.


For anything else — contact support


For any deletion outside text — a widget, a section, a page, an entire room — there is no self-serve recovery. Reach out to support as soon as possible and we'll see whether we can restore from a backup:



Include:

  • The room URL (or room name + approximate time it existed)
  • What was deleted (which section, which widget, the whole room)
  • Roughly when


Backups have finite retention — the sooner you reach out, the higher the chances of recovery.


Prevention


Because there's no undo, take a moment before destructive actions:


  • Read the confirmation dialog — Katalyz asks before irreversible deletes
  • Use "hide from buyers" instead of delete when you just want a section off the buyer view — see Hiding pages and sections from buyers
  • Duplicate the room before making big structural changes — safe playground, the original stays intact
