Options to enable/disable post revisions

  • Hi,
    I’m not sure if anyone else posted this, but here it is:
    I’m suggesting that WP add an option to disable post revisions (saving them and etc). Why? Because these revisions are probably unneeded for some people (like me). It takes [b]a LOT[/b] of storage + CPU to load and save them. In fact, for my site which has about 90 posts and about 10 revisions, I received an “over 30 second load” error – the diff script takes too much time finding the differences. Unluckily, I can’t change the time limit for a script execution.

    Regards.

    If nobody had told you about post revisions, if you had not scrolled down and saw the revision box at the bottom of the post… how exactly would post revisions impact you, in any way at all?

    Um I’ve read all this about revisions on/off. And first of all, I noticed this feature when my post_ids went from 200 odd to over 1000 with only a few post actually added. So yes I noticed it.

    Second, you say scroll down on the Admin (I assume) Write page to Post Revisions – I saw a screen shot of a triangle open to show the list of that post revisions.

    My problem is that there is no such animal as Post Revisions anywhere in the WP admin 2.6.2 interface! What gives? Is something wrong with my installation or what?
    Thanks

    As a member of the silent majority, I want to thank all of the people that were unselfish enough to create a software program like WordPress that is available to everyone at no charge.
    It is not perfect, like some of the negative whiners, but will improve with age.
    The post revisions are a great addition and have saved me more than once.
    Keep up the good work.

    My plugins are WP 2.7 and 2.8 compatible.
