Our users have big problems with maximum numbers of versions of an object is reached.I've checked the permissions-settings, and the usergroup has the proper permission for versionread. BUT, which grant shall be given to give the user the right to delete the versions, when the max-number is reached?...Now the admin-user has to go in for every user and delete versions, because the users don't get the possibillity to delete earlier versions.
I thought eZ publish automatically deleted the oldest version if the max-number was reached..but not.
Urgent advices is needed.

Hi Have a look in the file <b>settings/content.ini</b> and change the <b>DefaultVersionHistoryLimit</b> [VersionManagement] DefaultVersionHistoryLimit=5
This setting show that ezcontentobject_version table will store only latest five versions of object and all versions older than 5 will be deleted automatically. You can also set this limit to particular class by setting <b>VersionHistoryClass[1]</b>I guess this should work.

Yes I know, but what access does a user need to edit the version-history list and delete a version? Our users got content-remove from all objects they (self) created, but are not able to delete the versions anyway.

The problem you describe is caused by users having more drafts than they're allowed. A fix for this has been added to trunk rev. 7880. ( 3.5 )
