Is there a way to back up post history?
I sometimes write my posts offline, then copy and paste - so I have a record of that post. But sometimes I just start a new post on wordpress. Is there a way to say, back up the history onto a Word file or something?
Not sure what you need exactly, but WordPress does keep track of revisions you make to posts and pages. See the Post Revisions at the bottom of the Edit Post panel.
Those revisions have post_type of revision and a post_parent equal to the post ID of the live post.
If you backup your database, those revisions then get backed up. Now if you want to 'export' those revisions, suppose you could use the phpMyAdmin export ability to do so.
