Turn Off Post Revisions and Autosave in WordPress

How To Turn Off Post Revisions And Autosave In WordPress
For those who didn’t know, WordPress has a “Post Revisions” feature that automatically stores various versions of your posts in the database. This is a useful feature if you accidentally erase the content of a post, you can restore an older version. Similarly, if you have multiple authors on your blog you can role-back from undesired edits of the posts.
But, have you ever found the save post revisions feature in WordPress helpful? Although it can save you many hours should you accidentally delete a chunk of text or accidentally click the back button in your browser, on the whole, most WordPress users do not use this feature.
- Do you find, “There is an autosave of this page that is more recent than the version below. View the autosave”, annoying?



This is a really good tip particularly to those fresh to the blogosphere.
Shoort but very accurate information… Thanks
