  • To completely disable the revisions, you can add define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', false); in your wp-config.php file. It’s not recommended to do this.
  • To limit the revisions, you can add define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', 5); in your wp-config.php file. Recommended number is under 10.

WP-Sweep plugin is a handy plugin, to clear the post revisions.
