## Description

WordPress 3.6 allows users to control how many revisions are stored for each supported
post type. No longer must you rely on the `WP_POST_REVISIONS` constant, which applied
universally. This plugin provides an interface for this new functionality.

With this plugin enabled, simply visit **Settings > Writing** to specify the number
of revisions retained for each post type.

Why is this helpful? Revisions are stored in the database, and if many are stored,
can cause bloat. This bloat may lead to slower queries, which can have a noticeable
performance impact. The value of these revisions also depends on what is being tracked.
For example, I may want to store every revision of the posts I write, but only desire
to keep the latest five versions of each page on my site. Starting in WordPress 
3.6, this control is available. WordPress doesn’t provide a native interface to 
specify revisions quantities, so I wrote this quick plugin to do so.

Thanks to Maria Ramos at [WebHostingHub](http://www.webhostinghub.com/), the plugin
is also available in Spanish. Many thanks to her for her efforts!

**Development is at https://git.ethitter.com/wp-plugins/wp-revisions-control.**

As a non-professional web developer I really appreciate having this plugin. It's
saved my bacon on a number of occasions when I've stuffed up, or some random corruption
has occured. Thank you.

Was looking for a solution to bypass the WP_POST_REVISIONS limit and this worked
great for that, also added the functionality for setting revision limits by post
type!
