Hello,
is there a way in which the "Revisions" button can also be displayed under "Actions" for viewers? Currently the viewer can only see "Favourite" and "Export" but not "Revisions".
If the viewer adds "/revisions" to the URL, it works fine...

The benefit: Viewers can immediately recognize the changes in long texts.

Thanks very much!

I was asking similar feature here: https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/issues/3192

The "/revisions" sufix added to the URL works fine also for "Public" and I think this should be added as I described it in my PR mentioned above.

btw. @ssddanbrown could you mark this ISSUE as "Feature Request" ?

Thanks both for raising.

This has been addressed in 2fe261e207 and will be part of the next feature release.

Documentation Notes

Update advisory to note revision link visibility change (Actual revision access remains unchanged, but permissions here would not have been obvious before).
