how to modify autosave Interval in wordpress
When editing a post, WordPress uses Ajax to auto-save revisions to the post as you edit. You may want to increase this setting for longer delays in between auto-saves, or decrease the setting to make sure you never lose changes. The default is 60 seconds.
This really good feature of wordpress but sometimes this became very painful to blogger because of revision posts and size to database. Due to post revision wordpress post table size increases and Due to that database became slower.
So I recommend to change the auto save time of your wordpress.You can change the ‘auto-save’ time of wordpress blogs by your own time limit. This task invloves changin the configuration of AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL constant and replacing the given time interval by your time.
Just follow my steps very carefully. Open the wp-config.php file which you can find in your wordpress root folder.
and find the following sentence.
define('AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 60 ); // seconds
and change that to following
define('AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL', 180 ); // seconds
After doing this change upload wp-config.php file to server again. After this change Auto save will start after 3 min instead of 1 minute.
