@otto42, I agree with fantasycrusader. I don’t care about past posts. Referring your email-case, you don’t read your month or year old mails, do you? Ofcourse not, they render meaningless over time. I understand when you are with multi users, though as solely blogger, revisions are of no use. I think, alike, revision control plugin should be in the core.
Thanks for the “define (‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, 0);” tip, should be a setting in the admin panel, which also a notice the user of having revisions.
It’s not saving DB space, it’s just I don’t like data I don’t use.
Well, the first idea I don’t like of WordPress. So good job developpers, please be aware a truly love WordPress <3. Just some control about the revisions will do.
