Overview

About this plugin

WordPress revisions do not normally include custom fields or taxonomies. This plugin extends revisions to include taxonomies and custom fields from PODS etc, allowing previous states to be captured, compared & restored as expected.

Usage

There is no user interface, once installed and activated it will start

capturing custom field and taxonomy information. The rest is stock WordPress revision functionality, except that this plugin formats the extra data into an easy to read format for display in the comparison screens.

Features

-

Taxonomies are saved as metadata with a key such as “$TAXONOMY:light_conditions” for the “light_conditions” custom category. The values are a list of “ID=Name” pairs. These would generally sort to the top (or close to it).

-

WordPress limits how the data is presented in the “Compare Revisions” screen, so the data is displayed as an alphabetically sorted list of fields and their values.

-

You can filter out metadata keys with one or more regular expressions if you don’t care about their values. Filtered out metadata is not saved, displayed or restored.
