Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.After upgrading to 2.2 (from 1.x), I have a feature request: The main configuration page (/admin/config/content/node_revision_delete) needs some info back.
I'd suggest the following:
a) A note about where to turn this feature on for each content type, or (more ideally)
b) A static list of what content types have this enabled, what number of revisions are kept for each, and maybe even an Edit link to each content type's edit form?
The 1.x version showed you this info on the config page, but it's gone now due to the move to the content type edit forms. That move makes sense, but being able to see which content types had this feature turned on in one place was good info to have before executing the "Run Now Only" option.

juampynr CreditAttribution: juampynr commentedThanks @jeremyclassic! I made some changes on your patch so it just lists tracked content types plus some extra formatting.
Marking as fixed.

jeremyclassic CreditAttribution: jeremyclassic commented@juampy - please consider the additional formatting in the patch that added tracked and untracked content types to the admin form in a collapsible fieldset. On one site I work on, there are over twenty different content types that have this module monitoring revisions. The page gets a little cluttered with so many content types. I understand that this is not the case for many (or perhaps most) Drupal sites, however, for those of us who use Drupal as the workhorse framework for very large custom portals, hiding those extra, unnecessary bits would be nice.

vbouchetHi @juampy,
As per @jeremyclassic's feedback, I updated the code to also list untracked content types in the configuration overview. It may be interesting to have two tabs: "Overview" and "Settings" to separate the settings form and the current configuration overview. Let me know if you are interested and I will create a patch to provide this (and also a .admin.inc file as mentioned here)
Thanks,
