    How to update a node value without publishing

    API Questions

    Hi,

    I'd like to know if there's a way to update a node value without publishing the node. (which automatically creates new revisions)

    Because I'm running a scheduled tak (every 5 minutes), which updates a numeric field (page views from a database table), every node in the content tree gets many revisions. As a result I'm getting a gigantic database full of node revisions I don't need.

    So can anybody please help me with this one?

    Thanks in advance,

    Remko

    Hi,

    I don't know if there is a way to update a node value without publishing the node. But I had the same kind of problem on one of my development and used this package to delete the history:

    If the data is really big, then it's better to use this directly in SQL:

    And this one to prevent this to happen again in the future:

    I used these in version 4.7
