Unfortunately, I noticed the issue too late &#8211; my older posts had already stored so many revisions that they even started showing <strong>\u201cUpdate Failed\u201d<\/strong> errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After trying different solutions, I found <strong>Advanced DB Cleaner<\/strong>, and it finally fixed the problem. It cleaned all unnecessary revisions safely and efficiently, without any manual intervention. Now I can rely on this plugin knowing my database won\u2019t keep growing uncontrollably because of old revisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This tool saved me a lot of time and frustration. You definitely deserve <strong>5 stars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-18982163","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18982163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/18982163\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18982163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
