 * Call me dopey, somewhere down the line I set revisions to only back to two. With
   way I change my mind a little on certain pages. Sometimes want to go back at 
   most a week or so. It showing 2 of them in a much shorter time I would want. 
   Most probably do not even fool with it much. My poor memory really sucks. I will
   be doing something then called away and totally forgot what I was doing.
 * I know at top on screen options the revisions box is checked. Ticks me off on
   so many ways I will forget what I am doing. Either getting all my settings and
   other stuff I may like. I have looked over at settings and other places. Wouldn’t
   be surprised if I did look at it and did not notice. Should have learned long
   ago how I will screw up and just leave things alone. But again my idiotic actions
   screws me up.I know may be trivial.
 * So thanks for the answer and I will walk away embarrassed.

 * If you want to set the number of revisions, you will find it in the wp-config.
   php file at a line like this:
 *     ```
       define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', 3);
       ```
   
 * Or, you may have installed a plugin which lets you choose the number of revisions.
 * If you want to set a longer time between autosaves, use a line like this:
 *     ```
       define( 'AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 300 ); // Seconds
       ```
   
 * See this Codex article for more information: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Modify_AutoSave_Interval](http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Modify_AutoSave_Interval)

 * Thanks for info, was just curious about it. Because for a long time revisions
   would go couple weeks back. Then all of sudden with only two. 99% sure I didn’t
   do anything anywhere. Pretty sure it wasn’t a plugin. I am kinda of a nut will
   go back and forth tweaking of what want final result. But my whole work is odd.
 * And first with WP I was trying a lot of things experimenting. I am slow about
   learning anything. And some gaud awe full mistakes or truly had no idea of what
   I was doing from not being that savvy. I know everyone starts out that way. I
   have a lot better idea of what I am doing now.
 * However now that I think about it, Believe it began when I installed latest version
   4.0. Not positive about it because of not keeping track of a lot of things jumping
   around doing this and that over many pages. Not calling latest version the culprit
   because I don’t know much. Do not see any others posting about a problem. So 
   many things I’ve done that would fit in the idiot category.
 * When I am not dead tired when I get online which is always. Will look into what
   you mentioned.
 * PS, The only thing I know about code is when I get a fever and coughing a lot.
