Is there a limit for how many versions of the same document umbraco will keep, And is there a place to configure it? The document management/version control is nice but id like to be able to specify a limit. Something like keep the last 20 versions and that's it.
Also, still in the subject, is there a way to remove those old versions? Couldn't find it on the backend.
This really nice package (F.A.L.M. Housekeeping) has excelent cleanup features unfortunatelly it won't work with 4.5 schema.
Maybe you can try the client tools by Thomas Höhler, it has a versions cleaner. But I don't know if it will work for 4.5. Are you in a big hurry? I used to have an SQL script somewhere that would delete some versions, I could look for it.
It currently cleans up all versions, just keeping the live and draft, but I am working on making it configurable (you can set the maximum number of days to keep). I should hopefully have an update by the end of the weekend.

UPDATE
I've now added an additional config option to UnVersion for the number of days to keep versions, so this should do exactly what you need now.
@Sebastiaan Janssen Anytime will get the scripts will be good to help me understand the schema and how things works. I appreciate you help, thanks a lot.
@Matt Brailsford Thanks man, looks like your package will save my day,
Document versions - is there a limit?

There is currently no limit, Umbraco will just keep adding versions.
The Housekeeping package is being worked on and will very soon be available for 4.5.
What about removing using the api, do you know what exactly should i remove? I mean, how do i get the document versions and remove than?

Hey,
You may want to take a look at my UnVersion package.

PS
UnVersions IS v4.5 compatable
