Simple Revision Control

설명

Easily control and limit post revisions per post type to keep your WordPress database clean and optimized—no coding required!

Simple Revision Control is a WordPress plugin that provides an easy way to manage and limit the number of post revisions stored for each post type on your site. Unlike editing the wp-config.php file—which only allows setting a single revision limit for all post types—this plugin lets you specify a different revision limit for each post type individually. You can also enable or disable revision support per post type and delete unwanted revisions directly from the plugin’s settings.

Key features

  • Set custom revision limits for each post type, rather than a global limit.
  • Enable or disable revisions for post types that don’t support them by default.
  • Delete all unwanted revisions with a single click to keep your database clean.
  • Simple setup and configuration via the WordPress admin under Settings Revisions.
  • No coding required—ideal for users who prefer not to edit wp-config.php.

This plugin is especially useful for site owners who want granular control over revision storage to optimize database performance and avoid unnecessary clutter, without needing to modify core WordPress files.

Unfortunately the worst case happened: After setting a limit of 25 revisions for pages and purging all pages, many pages (10+) have randomly and untraceably disappeared. Panic ensued and only our backups could save the website and all the work. To bugfix, we set up a staging site with the last working backup, used this plugin again as before – and again the same pages just vanished without trace.I know it takes a lot of time and efford to write and maintain a plugin. And had it worked as intended, it would be a great help. But randomly deleting pages is an uncontrollable danger for any user.

メディアライブラリーのリンクなど思いもよらないDatabaseも削除してしまいます。被害を受けました。バックアップから復旧していますが、使用を禁止する方が良いと思います。 Wordpressは最新5.9.3日本語バージョンです。
