Saving is still automatic. When will you please stop this?

Hi folks,
Seriously it is exceedingly annoying that Nice Page auto saves during the development process and especially on
shutdown of Nicepage.
Normal development offers small changes to any project whether it be a web page or software. Having autosave
without the developer choice of enabling or disabling is simply bad news.
Many changes I make during a development cycle are not required but simply done to see the change and assess its
viability. However Nicepage autosave does not allow me to do these. Even closing Nicepage still saves the changes.
Please please please allow us to disable this autosave it wastes so much of my time it is crazy. Even showing clients
the page is frustrating when they say "no I prefer it before the last change, please revert.".

Thank goodness this feature is implemented!

Nicepage was auto saving after each and every little change I'm making which caused a lag in the program itself.

I finally figured out why the software was lagging... auto save was on!

Thank you

Hi,

Nicepage was auto saving after each and every little change I'm making
which caused a lag in the program itself.

When you disable the autosave option, then if you click the Save button, the save process is in progress, the button becomes inactive until the page is saved, and this takes some time.
If autosave is enabled, then the save itself occurs automatically, but with an interval, that should correspond to the time when you click the Save button (approximately) when the autosave option is disabled.

If you have problems with the autosave option, please create a separate topic, provide temporary access to the site backend and specify after what exactly actions we can see the problem.

Hi folks,
Great that Autosave can now be disabled but I am still wondering why we have to save
before we can produce the project?
My method of developing is make small changes then build, test accept or undo. This allows
me to make numerous changes without having issues with saved files that have changes I do not
wish to keep.
Can Nicepage actually create the project from what is in memory or does it have to have a saved
set of files?

TIA :)

Hi,

A lot of customers use autosave. It helps to be sure that you will not lose the changes if something happens (like a hard-drive crash, for example). Some of the projects cannot be saved in the ram because of the large files. Therefore saving is a required step. The undo-redo options are available after saving too.
