[edit] rc_this_oldid in MediaWiki 1.6.7

After some experimenting, we've discovered that recentchanges.rc_this_oldid points to revision.rev_id, not to a row in the Text table. Spare yourself some confusion!

[edit] Removing select changes from database

Will there be side effects if I remove select changes from the table in the database (using phpMyAdmin). I find myself removing garbage edits and subsequent blocks from the list, but worry about any possible issues this may bring. --Nathanael Bar-Aur L. 22:15, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mediawiki 1.15.1

As I understand it, because $wgRCMaxAge defaults to 7 days in mediawiki 1.15.1, the links "14" and "30" days are useless in this special page. Might make sense to adjust the default back to what it was (13 weeks); remove these links; or find some midway solution (e.g. setting it to 30 days, not 13 weeks). -Pinkgothic 12:44, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

According to this edit, it never was 13 weeks, but is now. So you can disregard the comment above, since mediawiki 1.16.0 handles it correctly. -Pinkgothic 12:47, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Suppress certain sections

By adding the following to Mediawiki:Common.css a person can suppress certain sections (fields) on a particular page which lists the recent changes by using {{special:recentchanges/5}}:

body.page-PAGE_NAME .mw-plusminus-pos  {display:none} /* removes plus minus of each edit */
body.page-PAGE_NAME  .mw-rollback-link  {display:none} /*removes rollback link */
body.page-PAGE_NAME .mw-plusminus-null  {display:none} /*removes null edit */
body.page-PAGE_NAME  .mw-usertoollinks {display:none} /* removes (Talk | contribs | block) */

Replace PAGE_NAME with the name of the page. Adamtheclown 19:29, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
