Revisions missing

    I noticed that the Revisions are missing; don’t know when this happened
    They are not under Screen Options.
    Have tried all recommended actions:

    • deactivating all plugins,
    • switching to the default theme,
    • resetting the plugins folder by FTP
    • re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder – from a fresh download of WordPress.

    Also added define(‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’,true); to wp-config
    But Revisions are still not visible.

    Any suggestions ?

  • try editing an existing post (and saving it). It should create a revision. Autosaves are not generated every second so if you add the post content and immediately click publish there won’t be a second revision.

    Yes, it created a revision, but not visible on the Post Edit screen; I could see the revision in the database (using phpMyAdmin).
    Found some old, unused tables in the database for Easy Content Types plugin, which I deleted; this still did not solve the problem.
    I went back to deactivating all plugins once more and activating them one by one; in the end I found that the plugin Simple Optimizer at times, after using it to delete all revisions, causes the Revisions not be appear again on the Post Edit screen.
    I deleted this plugin and installed WP-Optimize, but also this plugin gave similar results. I have now removed both optimization plugin and the revisions are working normally again.
