## Description

Unless post revisions are explicitly limited, WordPress will build up a hefty sum
of revisions over time. While it’s great to have revision history for some recent
content, the chances that old revisions will be necessary diminish the longer a 
post has been published. Revision Strike is designed to automatically remove these
unneeded revisions on older, published posts.

#### How does it work?

First, a threshold is set, with a default of 30 days. Once a day, Revision Strike
will run and find any post revisions in the database attached to published posts
with a post date of at least 30 (or your custom threshold) days ago, and “strike”(
tear-down and remove) them from the WordPress database.

## Installation

 1. Upload the revision-strike/ directory to your WordPress installation’s plugin directory(
    by default, /wp-content/plugins).
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

Activating the plugin will automatically register a daily WP Cron event to clean
up revisions on established posts. If you’d prefer not to wait, you can explicitly
purge post revisions through the ‘Tools > Revision Strike’ page within WordPress
or with [WP-CLI](http://wp-cli.org/).

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload the revision-strike/ directory to your WordPress installation’s plugin directory(

 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

Activating the plugin will automatically register a daily WP Cron event to clean

or with [WP-CLI](http://wp-cli.org/).

  Can I configure how long a post needs to be published before its revisions can
be removed?

Yes. On the Settings > Writing page there is an option to set the default number
of days a post must be published before removing its revisions, but out of the box
it’s 30 days.

  Can I manually run Revision Strike without having to wait for the daily WP Cron
event?

Yup, just visit Tools > Revision Strike within the WordPress admin area. If you’re
a [WP-CLI](http://wp-cli.org/) user, you can also run Revision Strike from the command
line (run `wp revision-strike clean --help` for a full list of options).
