[...] first I tried a wp-config.php attempt, from http://sheldon.lendrum.co.nz/disabling-wordpress-auto-save-and-revision-saving_227/04/ - but that must not work in 2.6.x – it still appeared to be autosaving. The next Google result was [...]

i was looking for this since a week as i was trying to build posts with permalinks whose content changes daily.
i dont want to save revisions of same post daily which will occupy lots of database, though autosave is fine with me
thanks anyway

Hi Ovidiu,

Good work on spotting that time/math error

Both Zero and False will work, where false returns a boolean of 0, where True == 1.

are you sure its

define( ‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, 0 ); and not

define( ‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, false ); or will both work?

also you have a calculation error, if 60=60 seconds then 600 are not 1 hour like you wrote but 10 minutes

Sheldon, well done man. That is going into my code snippet vault. I was hoping someone would come up with a plugin or some sort of solution to this problem. Your’s was clean and elegant and best of all, it appears to work perfectly. I only say “appears to work” because I just did it 30 seconds ago and so far so good. Just the SQL alone was worth the post. Nice work, and thank you.
