I came across Revision Diet after looking for a temporary plugin solution for my blog, Blondish.net. For those unaware, I just cute 150 static pages from the site, but I still have over 120 static pages, and over 300 blog posts. Just imagine the number of revisions I have hoarded! It was insane an putting some strain on the allocation I gave to my individual hosting account on my server.
Installation was easy, and using the plugin is really simple. All you have to do is put the number of revisions you will allow your blog to remember. After that, you can eliminate or as the plugin says ‘trim’ your revisions on your blog by simply clicking a button. It takes a moment to do, but it is worth it. For me, I make a lot of revisions – some even months after I wrote the page or post.
Other plugins I have tried, even the popular ones do not have a way to trim out the posts, and as the Revision Diet plugin creator, David Miller noticed, some of the plugins were only hiding the revisions, not removing them completely. While some people do not even like the revision option at all, this is a way to at least limit how many revisions are saved so any accidental deletions will not occur.
Have you tried this plugin? How has it worked for you? Or if not, do you use a similar plugin?
