WordPress 3.6 allows users to control how many revisions are stored for each supported post type. No longer must you rely on the <code>WP_POST_REVISIONS</code> 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 <a href="http://www.webhostinghub.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">WebHostingHub</a>, the plugin is also available in Spanish. Many thanks to her for her efforts!

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.
<h4>Key features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Set custom revision limits for each post type, rather than a global limit.</li>
<li>Enable or disable revisions for post types that don’t support them by default.</li>
<li>Delete all unwanted revisions with a single click to keep your database clean.</li>
<li>Simple setup and configuration via the WordPress admin under Settings → Revisions.</li>
<li>No coding required—ideal for users who prefer not to edit wp-config.php.</li>
</ul>
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.
