i think it is a bit diffrent from the old version. have look webhelp for episerver, you will need the gadget i think

also this blog post at secret #4 will guide you http://world.episerver.com/Blogs/Alexander-Haneng/Dates/2013/1/5-Secrets-in-EPiServer-CMS-7-Edit-Mode/

Seems like the gadget only allows for switching between different versions (not comparing). The CMS 6 compare view is available through the "old" edit interface which you can navigate to if you know the url :)

Thanks for the replies!

So it seems that EPiServer has removed the ability to compare versions in EPiServer 7. I know that this is a useful feature for a number of our clients.

I wonder if there is any plan to bring it back in a future release?

Bump!

Will the functionality to compare versions (and languages) come back?

Any more input on this question? our client is also using this funtion to compare. And it's also useful to see who did what.

Anyone knows if this function is available for EPiServer 7.1 now?

It is not part of 7.5, so nope, not there. 

Side by side comparison is something we are currently working on and you will soon see the first version in our continous release updates.

The compare version is back in episerver 7.5 update 14

Hi,

We've received feedback both internally and from clients that the compare functionality isn't as good as it was back in CMS 6. Specifically, there is no way to do property level comparison (forms view), which makes it hard to track changes efficiently.

@Peter, seeing that this is something of a core feature in EPiServer CMS, is this something that is planned to be improved in upcoming updates, and if so when?

Regards,
Johan

Hi Johan,

Property compare is in our near term roadmap. This means that we have started planning the feature and you will see it in the continuous updates the coming months.
