At each step of the authoring process, WP Document Revisions gives you an instant snapshot of your team's progress and the document's history. It even gives you the option to revert back to a previous revision\u200a\u2014\u200aso don't fret if you make a mistake\u200a\u2014\u200aor\u00a0receive\u00a0updates on changes to the document right in your favorite feed reader.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Access Control<\/strong> - Each document is given a\u00a0persistent\u00a0URL (e.g., yourcompany.com\/documents\/2011\/08\/TPS-Report.doc) which can be private (securely\u00a0delivered only to members of your organization), password protected (available only to those you select such as clients or contractors), or public (published and hosted for the world to see). If you catch a typo and upload a new version, that URL will continue to point to the latest version, regardless of how many changes you make.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Enterprise Security<\/strong> - Worried about storing propriety or sensitive information? WP Document Revisions was built from the first line of code with government- and enterprise-grade security in mind.\u00a0Each file is masked behind an anonymous 128-bit <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/MD5\">MD5 hash<\/a> as soon as it touches the server, and\u00a0requests for files are transparently routed through WordPress's time-tested URL rewriting, authentication, and permission systems (which can even <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/active-directory-integration\/\">integrate with existing enterprise active directory<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/simple-ldap-login\/\">LDAP servers<\/a>). Need more security? WP Document Revisions allows you to store documents in a folder above the <code>htdocs<\/code> or <code>public_html<\/code> <a href=\"http:\/\/httpd.apache.org\/docs\/2.0\/mod\/core.html#documentroot\">web root<\/a>, further ensuring that only those you authorize have access to your work.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Customization<\/strong>\u00a0- WP Document Revisions recognizes that no two teams are\u00a0identical,\u00a0and as a result, molds to your firm's needs, not the other way around. Need to track\u00a0additional\u00a0information associated with a document?\u00a0Departments, editors, issues, sections, even arbitrary key-value\u00a0pairs\u00a0\u2014 whatever you can throw at it, it can handle. Development and customization costs are further minimized by its extensive plugin API, and the <a href=\"http:\/\/themergency.com\/generators\/wordpress-custom-taxonomy\/\">WordPress Custom Taxonomy Generator<\/a> makes it easy for even the\u00a0uninitiated\u00a0to add custom taxonomies to documents.

WP Document Revisions is built with tomorrow's uncertainty in mind. Equally at home in an in-house server room as it is in the cloud, moving individual files or entire document repositories in and out of WP Document Revisions is a breeze (history and all).
