Thread:Project:Support desk/remove the recent edits hard limit of 500?/reply (6)

I can change the number of days as well but thats not the problem, even if I make it 30 days I still cannot exceed 500 recent changes even by changing the URL, it seems capped at 500.

Reguarding the spam many of those solutions appear as if they might become complecated as soon as I try to implement them, already I am having to edit code files as there is no interface for performing the actions I require.

New spam is created almost as quickly as I can delete it and there is perhaps a hundred days of backlog, but it's all users creating new spam pages so for now I could prevent new page creations by all users except administrators. Do I use a variation on this?

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createpage'] = false;
