<h4>Abstract</h4>
<p>As its default behavior, WordPress makes a new revision when you update your post.<br />
This also happens when you do a preview before publication.<br />
This is too often even if you like revision control. Thin Out Revisions (TOR), a plugin<br />
for WordPress, will help you to keep unwanted revisions out.</p>
<h4>Basic Feature</h4>
<p>You can remove intermediate revisions during comparing in ‘compare two revisions’ mode in revision.php. To do it, simply press the ‘Thin Out’ button (fig. 1 in the screenshots page).<br />
And you can also remove each single revision from the Edit Post/Page screen (fig. 2).</p>
<p>WordPress 3.5 and prior, which have an old revision screen, are no longer supported.</p>
<h4>When you publish a post</h4>
<p>If you are a careful author, I guess you have many revisions as a result of preview checks.<br />
TOR can clean them when you first publish your post.<br />
Just simply enable the following option in the ‘Settings’ – ‘Thin Out Revisions’ admin page (fig. 3).</p>
<ul>
<li>Delete revisions on initial publication</li>
</ul>
<h4>Bulk erase of old revisions</h4>
<p>You can remove old revisions on the fly or daily as a scheduled task (fig. 3).</p>
<h4>Revision Memo</h4>
<p>The Revision Memo feature enables you to put a short text note on revisions. See the pictures (fig. 4, 5) in screenshots page.<br />
Make sure that you check the ‘Revision Memo’ screen option in Edit Post (Edit Page) screen.</p>
<h4>More to Describe</h4>
<ul>
<li>TOR works fine in multisite environment. </li>
</ul>

Thin Out Revisions

Enables flexible revision management for you.

<h4>What are revisions?</h4>
<p>“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.”<br />

<h4>Speed up your website</h4>
<p>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.<br />
With Companion Revision Manager you can take back control over revisions!<br />
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.</p>
<h4>Plugin features</h4>
<ol>
<li>Delete all existing revisions</li>
<li>Turn off revisions completely</li>
<li>Set a maximum number of revisions that can be stored</li>
</ol>

Companion Revision Manager – Revision Control


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.


Almost perfect

Lightweight plugin that allows full control over post revisions.
