WordPress version 5.8.2
Revision control version 2.3.2
In the above environment, when the default setting for custom post types is set to unlimited, revisions are not saved, are you aware of this bug?
]]>Compare has been almost broken some time back, with an extremely small right pane.
All you need to do is to find this file at your site
wordpress/wp-admin/css/revisions.min.css
And change 4% to 45% or more accurately
table.diff tbody tr td:nth-child(2){width:4%}
to
table.diff tbody tr td:nth-child(2){width:45%}
It popped up said that there was a newer version saved, but it was not and I literally lost hours of work. Can this be undone? Please help!
]]>The Revision Control plugin hasn’t been updated in 3 years. Because of this, the Wordfence security plugin is flagging Revision Control as a moderate severity security issue.
Has Revision Control been abandoned?
I hope not because it is a very useful plugin. Please consider updating your plugin to be compatible with the latest version of WP.
Thank you.
]]>Hi, I am occasionally facing a strange problem where latest auto-save simply cannot be deleted no matter what. And the annoying notification message appears on top, tempting me to switch to (discarded, changed my mind, no longer proper) version of my post, which I no longer desire.
Then, trying to delete that auto-save is not apparently possible. Please, check screenshots.
How To Reproduce:
Essentially, you can try switching between classic and new gutenberg editor, poke around just enough for auto-save to kick in, then leave editing (confirm js alert), and later when you back to editing, you will see that ‘newer auto-save’ version is available, which you discarded minutes before. Try to delete it and it will fail.
Any chance to fix this?
]]>It looks like Revision Control is hiding revisions – for me it looks like a bug.
I use WordPress 4.9.8. I did not change any Revision Control (RC) plugin settings.
I go to a post and see all revisions below the post in RC. The RC dropdown is set to “Default Revision Settings”.
Then I simply click “Update” on that post without changing anything and without deleting (!) and suddenly all revisions disappear! Also reloading the post shows that there are no revisions, in RC below the post and in the WP box on the right.
Then I set the RC dropdown to “Unlimited number of revisions”, hit “Update” and all revisions reappear.
Is this expected or a bug?
Hi,
is this plugin gdpr ready?
does it save any data such as ip adresses, etc. Does it send any data to external server?
Hello,
I found while working on a dev site that I hadn’t touched any default settings no revisions were being stored, which matches this topic;
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/bug-does-not-save-any-revisions-when-set-to-unlimited/
After investigation, I found the issue was in the define_WP_POST_REVISIONS function on the $defined_to switch statement since it was set to ‘defaults’ but $default was ‘unlimited’ which isn’t a valid setting for WP_POST_Revisions. To correct this I put a conditional in the ‘defaults’ case checking if $default was ‘unlimited’ and if so setting it to true which is the value needed for unlimited revisions.
Workaround on the switch here (only changes are in the ‘defaults’ case;
// Ok, Lets define it.
$define_to = isset($post_specific[0]) && '' != $post_specific[0] ? $post_specific[0] : $default;
switch ( $define_to ) {
case 'unlimited':
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', true);
break;
case 'never':
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', 0);
break;
case 'defaults':
if ( $default == 'unlimited' ) {
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', true); // If 'unlimited' set to true
} else {
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', $default);
}
break;
default:
if ( is_numeric($define_to) )
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', (int)$define_to);
else
define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', true); // All else fails, Its this.
break;
}After this modification revisions will save without needing to modify any settings on the plugin.
*I’d be happy to do a PR if this is an opensource project.
]]>I like the simpleness of this plugin.
One thing I did not like was in Japanese language, the plugin name was also translated into Japanese. I think the name should be left intact.
With WP 4.7.3, if you just install and activate the plugin (without immediately setting the number of revisions), the default setting is “unlimited revisions”.
But the actual fact is:
When set to unlimited it doesn’t save ANY revisions!
I installed this plugin to keep revisions of my WooCommerce products. Now my product listing page is filled with (blank) revisions versions with no way to delete them! Please help! Under WooCoomerce products I see no page option or widget to access the Revision Control Metabox??
]]>I have made a series of revisions have encountered an error. It was first evident as a blank page on the visual editor [though the published page updated and presents fine].
Checking Revisions, there were none, and at very bottom was the following:
Revisions:
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 94896128) (tried to allocate 262317 bytes) in /home/janus/www/www/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 1809
I checked on the forum for the way to clear some memory —?I don’t need 80 saves… I found this but not sure how to proceed.

Revision Storage Method
Revisions are stored in the posts table.
Revisions are stored as children of their associated post (the same thing we do for attachments). They are given a post_status of ‘inherit’, a post_type of ‘revision’, and a post_name of {parent ID}- revision(-#) for regular revisions and {parent ID}-autosave for autosaves.
By default, WP keeps track of the changes to title, author, content, excerpt.
Revision Management
Deleting: There is an API function to delete revisions, but there is no UI. That can certainly change.
]]>Duplicator v1.1.18
When I click the Test Connection button on the Installer page a new ‘<div id=”content”> == $0’ section appears with a new instance of the installer.php file nested within. The buttons and javascript on the outer page re disabled.
I have been using Duplicator for a long time and have never seen this behavior. Wondering if installer is corrupt or what settings to review.
This is happening in:
Chrome 54.0.2840.71 m (64-bit)
Microsoft Edge 38.14393.0.0
Thank you.
]]>After checking Post Revisions, any saved drafts aren’t added to revision history. This is for all pages it seems.
]]>Where is the revisions meta box?
]]>Hi,
in edit Pages I can see all revisions and delete them.
but in edit Posts, i don’t see any revisions, so I can’t delete them.
What is missing?
Thanks!
]]>I’m using the current latest version, 2.3.2 with WordPress 4.4.1, and have noticed a little issue with the plugin when setting the max revisions settings on a per-page or per-post basis.
When the page is new and hasn’t yet had the revision maximum set, the setting will update as normal. After this first update, changing the revision maximum for the page or post fails silently resulting in no change to the revision control setting for that page. There is no error recorded or displayed, but the value in “Revision Control: Currently storing a maximum of ## Revisions” remains the same regardless of the options picked in the drop down next to this text, both before and after update to the page.
I wish there was more info I could give to make for a quick resolve but I’m honestly not sure why the setting doesn’t save, everything appears right to me but the data for revision control never saves to the database after the first time it is set.
Thanks for the effort that goes into making this plugin possible, its a real help for me on many sites and I hope to see a fix for this bug soon!
]]>First off, I like this plug-in. Today, I upgraded my site to PHP7 and got an error relating to the plug-in. Once I deactivated the plug-in, the site came back up.
Given that PHP 7 just came out, I don’t expect many people will encounter this issue so this is more a “heads up”
]]>Billion notices in the log file:

]]>Would it be possible to automatically add revision settings to all defined custom post types?
]]>Hello!
Great plugin, no issues so that’s great! ??
I am running latest version of wordpress with Optimize Press 2
and am wondering if this plugin will also work for PAGE revisions?
Some of my most heavily edited pages have over 150 revisions/versions
stored and it would be great if I could keep this to 2/3 as well as the posts!
If this plugin can work for the post revision system can it not also work for the page revision system in other words?
Thanks in advance for any ideas
]]>Hi, I have no idea whether or not you are going to see this thread, but this is very serious.
I’ve just tested your plugin on my dev server running PHP 7.0 and your plugin causes the break of whole website. So if you do not take some serious acting to fix the issue, if very near future this plugin is going to be the reason of breaking many other sites.
Here is the error log

]]>For some reason, while I was working on a client’s site. The revisions were not working if set to “Unlimited Revisions”. I had to switch it to 100 revisions to make it work. Just to let you know of this bug.
]]>is it compatible with the wordpress version 3.0 or more?
or any other ??
I was having no trouble with this plug-in until a couple of days ago. However now, with the plug-in active, I get only a blank page once I click the “Update” link after editing a post. Deactivating the plug-in eliminated the problem, so I have to assume that it is incompatible with some update to WordPress.
]]>Just wanted to say thanks for Revision Control. I use it on a half-dozen sites and have always appreciated its easy method for setting the maximum number of revisions, both sitewide and per post.
I’m sorry to see it’s no longer being developed or supported, and I hope someone else can pick it up from here.
Thanks again for your years of work and dedication!

]]>Under the delete revisions option from within the post editing view. When you check the “check all” box, it places a check box on the current version, which then you are not able to uncheck. I know that it does not in the end delete that current version even if it’s checked, but visually it’s makes it look a little scary.
If you can’t easily get it to not check the current (and auto draft) versions when choosing the check all box, could you at least include a note under the delete button that say something like, even if the current or auto save versions are checked, they will not be deleted – it’s a visual issue we’re working on.
Plugin is no longer working on most of the sites where I previously used this plugin.
Recently its been showing only the latest revision. It also interfers with WordPress’s built-in revision control – any revisons are not recorded while this plugin is active.
I am now de-activating this plugin on all sites where it is used.
