My ads was running for certain website for some times and I was getting quality traffic from search engine, as it look me that my ads is not looking very well (text ads), instead of delating or pausing this ads I make changes to this ads in older interface, with in the couple of minutes
I check my ads for my selected keywords my ads was not displaying in serach engine, as I change my Older UI to New UI , under the ads it was write "under review", as I have wait a one week to approve my ads, it has again went "under review".
Please tell me is there any way I can get back my changed ads, if yes, please reply quickly.

Regards...

Hello Knowledge seeker,

The short answer is 'no' there is not a way to 'un-edit' an ad and return it to the way it was previously - and have it still be reviewed/approved

Basically any time you edit an ad you are effectively deleting it, and creating a new ad.

And, please note that any edited ad will need to be reviewed, regardless of how how small or inconsequential the edit might seem. (This is because you can literally change the entire meaning of a word or sentance by changing just one letter.)

The best way to handle this in the future is to create a whole new ad in the ad group - rather than edit an existing ad. Then, let both the new and the old ad run until you see that the new ad is approved and running to your satisfaction.

Then, and only then, delete the old ad.
