How to find out who made a change on Webflow

Key points

  • Webflow maintains a version history for each project
  • You can identify who published, modified, or restored a page.
  • The roles of employees influence the visibility of actions.
  • Use activity notifications for better tracking.

When a hotel website is managed by multiple people, it's essential to know who made a change. Whether it's a text update, a new post, or a partial redesign, Webflow allows you to track changes and attribute each action to a specific user.

Access version history

Log in to your Webflow dashboard and open the relevant project. In the Designer, click the menu in the upper left corner, then select View Backups. This section displays all automatic backups and site publications. Each version includes:

  • The name of the employee who made the change
  • The exact date and time
  • An automatic description of the change (e.g., “Published site”, “Edited content”)

💡 Tip: You can restore a previous version if a mistake has been made, without losing other data.

Identify the actions of the publishers

If your team uses Webflow Editor, each action is associated with a logged-in user. When someone edits text, an image, or a link, Webflow retains this activity and displays it in the next publication. In the Publishing → Publish Log menu, you will see:

  • Who published the update?
  • When the publication took place
  • In which domain was it performed (useful for staging/production environments)?

Manage employee roles and rights

Webflow projects have different access levels: Owner, Designer, Editor, or Guest. To see who has made a change:

  1. Go to Project Settings → Collaborators
  2. View the list of members and their roles
  3. Check if a member has recently gained or lost access.

💡 Good to know: only Owners and Designers can see the full version history and restore a backup.

Use external tracking tools

For hotels managed by multiple agencies or service providers, you can connect Webflow to a tracking tool like Slack or Notion, via Zapier or Make (formerly Integromat), to receive a notification each time a post is published. This allows you to automatically document changes within your internal system.

Conclusion

Knowing who has modified your hotel Webflow site allows you to maintain visual consistency and ensure content quality. By combining version history, user roles, and notification tools, you maintain complete traceability of updates made by your teams or partners.
