Companion Revision Manager – Revision Control

Description

What are revisions?

“The WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update. The revision system allows you to see what changes were made in each revision by dragging a slider (or using the Next/Previous buttons). The display indicates what has changed in each revision – what was added, what remained unchanged, and what was removed. Lines added or removed are highlighted, and individual character changes get additional highlighting.”
– WordPress

Revisions can be nice to have, but having a lot of revisions may slow down your website. So disabling them can help keep your website fast.
With Companion Revision Manager you can take back control over revisions!
This plugin tells you how many revisions are currently stored and allows you to delete them all at once, and if you want to save less revisions or none at all, we give you an option to change the maximum number of disable them all together.

Almost perfect

Does what it says. My experience is that the Delete xxxx Revisions button still has the number in it after you click it, and you have to load the page again to see there are no excess revisions.

Handy
