Hi guys. Getting back to this for at least a little while.
Kristina, I agree that you might not want to keep versions of everything. Perhaps there could be a sitewide or finer grained configuration (per institution / group / user and/or per object type?) option that controls whether revisions are automatically saved. If that's disabled, there would then be a button that let the user manually choose to save a new revision. I like the idea of being able to tag revisions and easily access them. That should be done no matter what else is decided. Regarding when revisions are made, it's got to be when the data is saved (regardless of whether that's by ajax or by clicking 'Done'). Thinking of what was written above again, I'd suggest that if revisions are being automatically saved, there should be an easily accessible way of controlling things (Radio button / drop down for switching between Don't save revisions / Combine all the changes being made into 1 revision / New revision on each change). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

One of the features that is lacking to make this feasible, though, is having an edit history. The wiki allows us to keep track of who made what edits, and to revert to older versions if necessary. So, I'd like to see Mahara gain the ability to keep track of a page's edit history. At a minimum it needs: 1. Who made changes, at what time 2. What the page looked like at each revision 3. Ability to revert the page to a previous version Also good would be: 4. Ability to "diff" versions and highlight what changed 5. Comments that go in the history log 6. "Publish" ability (including publishing at a later time/date) 7.
