## Description

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.

## FAQ

### Should I edit `wp-config.php` file instead install this plugin?

If you are able to edit `wp-config.php` file or you want to have only one number
of revisions for all post types, then please consider do not install this plugin,
instead just edit `wp-config.php` file.

### Why this plugin is better than the entry in `wp-config.php` file?

You can set up a number of revisions by post type. Setting in `wp-config.php` file
allows setting only one number of revisions for all post types. You can add od remove
revisions support per post types. At least you can delete unwanted revisions.

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.

The plugin deleted images that were used in posts. Made me lose a lot of time.

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。
