Edit History plugin for Question2Answer
This is an event plugin for popular open source Q&A platform, Question2Answer. It stores all edits to posts, allowing users to see what was changed.

UPDATE: a
noindex
meta tag is included on the revisions pages by default, but you can still block the pages with robots.txt if you prefer.I recommend blocking search engine access to the post revisions, since it could count as duplicate content. Simply add the following two lines to your robots.txt file (whereqa
is your Q2A subfolder if applicable):User-agent: * Disallow: /qa/revisions/
Roadmap
Here are a few of the planned features for the future:
- Page showing recent edits.
- Allow moderators to roll back revisions, and possibly delete revisions.
- Access control (e.g. only allow moderators/admins to view revisions).
