## Description

Takahiro Revision Cleanup provides a simple and secure way to manage and remove 
post revisions from your WordPress database.

Over time, WordPress accumulates revisions for every saved post and page. This can
significantly increase the size of your database and slow down your site. This plugin
helps you take control.

**Features:**

 * View total revision count and database size at a glance
 * See revisions grouped by post type
 * Delete all revisions at once or by post type
 * Optional database table optimization after deletion
 * Confirmation dialog before any destructive action
 * Secure with nonce verification and capability checks

## Installation

 1. Upload the `takahiro-revision-cleanup` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Tools > Revision Cleanup** to manage your revisions.

## FAQ

### Is it safe to delete revisions?

Yes. Revisions are copies of previous versions of your posts. Deleting them does
not affect the current published content. However, you will lose the ability to 
restore previous versions of those posts.

### Can I undo a deletion?

No. Once revisions are deleted, they cannot be recovered. Make sure to back up your
database before performing bulk deletions.

### What does “Optimize database table” do?

After deleting many rows from the database, the freed space is not automatically
reclaimed. The optimization option runs an `OPTIMIZE TABLE` command to reclaim that
space and improve database performance.

### Does this plugin work with custom post types?

Yes. The plugin detects all post types that have revisions and displays them in 
the list.
