During migration the files of my website and blogs (around 1,7 GB) I’ve found many files in wordpress database created with some types :
- Statistic files (from statpress plugin)
- Top 10 file (from top 10 plugin)
- Revision file (from built in ‘post revisions) wordpress system)
Wow, since I’m the only editor of the blog I decide to manage this feature more efficient.
Don’t Store Revisions
Looking around for wordpress plugin I decide to use Revision Control wordpress plugin.
From the description :
Revision Control is a plugin for WordPress 2.9+ which gives the user more control over the Revision functionality.
The plugin allows the user to set a site-global setting (Settings -> Revisions) for pages/posts to enable/disable/limit the number of revisions which are saved for the page/post. The user may change this setting on a per-page/post basis from the Revisions Meta box.
The plugin also allows the deletion of specific revisions via the Revisions post metabox.
After install and activate the plugin I can access from Settings sub menu named ‘revision’ :
I decide to set ‘Do not store Revisions’ for Posts and Pages. Click save and I’m saving some db space 🙂
See you in other post and stay health!
