Just to let you know I have included the ability to turn off (and back on!) post revisions in WordPress with my WP-CMS Post Control plugin It also allows you to hide the Post Revision menu, but still keep the function active in addition to being able to disable the Flash uploader and auto saves. The plugin also allows you to hide all aspects of the WordPress 2.6 write panels, including tags, custom fields... you name it!

Thanks for the tips, I don’t really have any use for the post revisions so getting rid of them would be nice. All that extra junk in the database is useless.

Kyle, thanks for this.

I really too thought that though post revision is a gr8 thing, it isn’t very useful for personal single-author blogs.

Post Revisions is one of the reasons I was reluctant to upgrade to 2.6, so thanks for the easy to understand solutions Kyle and Frank.
Much appreciated.
And I’m looking forward to the update of your plugin John.

@ Mehmet – Yeah, that is kind of along the lines of what I was thinking.
@ Frank – Thanks for adding another solution!

@ John – Awesome! I was hesitant to post this because if people screw up their wp-config file trying this, they get mad at me even though the directions are correct. :mrgreen”

Adding this to your plugin is a great solution!
