Forum:Removing pages from RC

There are some pages I don't want to see in RC. Let's just say because of their high amount of edits and I do not want to participate. Is there a way I can remove them from appearing on RC. I figure it's possible (probably using CSS) as you can remove other things from RC. But is it possible, and how? I Lion Heart I 20:20, 11 December 2008 (UTC)


 * RC, or Recent changes, is a log. It logs all edits and actions made by all users of the community it belongs to. There are only a few filtering options:
 * Hide minor edits - This will hide all edits marked as minor (you'll see a bold m)
 * Hide anonymous users - This will hide all edits made by IP addresses
 * Hide logged-in users - This will hide all edits made by registered accounts
 * Hide my edits - This will hide all edits you make


 * Unfortunately, there is no way to otherwise "remove" things from RC. You can add pages you like to your watchlist, then look at that to avoid the bustling activity of the recent changes log. Hope this helps. :) -- 21:41, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I know of the filtering options, in addition, I know I can show all edits to one namespace, or remove all edits to one namespace from my RC. I know of Javascript which can be used to "have fun" with RC, changing colours, highlighting users... or was that CSS? Well, you can edit the look of RC with JS and CSS.


 * If filters are possible within the wiki itself, and RC can be edited with CSS and JS, surely there is some code to remove certain pages from RC. If there isn't, I want it programmed into Wikia... like some sort of anti-watchlist.   :D   I Lion Heart I 22:06, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Anyone know how to code this? I've seen something similar from some Copy, Paste, Edit user, but apparently it only half did as he wished. Surely someone who knows how could code this? If not it's something I hope Wikia add. I Lion Heart I</FONT> 20:55, 16 December 2008 (UTC)


 * I think it's perfectly possible by using the exact same method that we use to colorize names :

table.diff a[title="Some page"], ul#pagehistory li a[title="Some page"], ul.special li a[title="Some page"] { display: none; }
 * But my feeling about this is abusing... — TulipVorlax 04:37, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Note that this code might not work "as it is". — TulipVorlax 04:39, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The code removes the diff, hist and pagename to leave " . . m ; 22:29", which helps, but it still allows me to know that the select pages still get edited, but not which ones.  I </FONT>Lion Heart</FONT> I</FONT> 22:40, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
 * In CSS there is somes rules to target elements who have a children that correspond to another rule. But, i dont really know how to do it and even if i were, too many browsers dont get thoses kind of things right yet. (Or so i think.) — TulipVorlax 06:18, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
 * After revising my CSS knowledge, i think this is impossible. Using the child selector apply style to child. There's nothing to target parent who has a child of a certain type. You can target any child or any first child but never parents. — TulipVorlax 20:56, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Testing the "Post a comment" link (+)
My friend TulipVorlax and I have been discussing the "+" button ("Post a comment") as applied in forums. The last time I tried one of those on a forum page (ns=110), my edit was on a Forum Talk page (ns=111), which was not good.

Now I see that the button leads (very sensibly) to the forum page itself, not a talk page. Before replying to my friend, I would like to know whether this now works on every Wikia.

 * As far as I know, the __NEWSECTIONLINK__ magic word always worked like now, adding the "+", that creates the section in the current page... If there was a bug about it, it probably was fixed --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 12:02, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
