Discard
Discards all changes made or saved since the last time the page was published. This includes all saved but unpublished work from previous sessions.Save Draft
Saves your page and exits the Beaver Builder editor. The changes made in that editing session are not visible except when editing in Beaver Builder.If you save a draft, be careful about discarding future edits. In Beaver Builder, changes in the layout are saved as you edit, and the Save draft choice is a way of exiting Beaver Builder without publishing the changes. If you choose Discard in a future session, you’ll lose all changes since you last published the page. Also, the WordPress Revisions feature only works with published changes, not saved drafts.Note that this can happen inadvertently if more than one person is editing the page at the same time. If another person discards edits on a page while you are editing the same page, your changes can be lost.
