From 35407614bb6287e96f5c08194eb0fa7ea1b71339 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Evan Prodromou Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2008 13:37:22 -0500 Subject: hide certain users from the public stream On identi.ca, certain users (http://identi.ca/derricklo) publish 5-10 automated notices every half hour or hour. This can flood the public stream, making it unreadable for casual readers. We don't want to prevent anyone from using the site for personal use. However, if their personal use clouds up the public space, we can gently remove them from that public space without interfering with their personal activity. So: this change prevents selected people's notices from appearing in the public stream. It's hand-configured by an administrator, and probably doesn't scale beyond 10-20 blacklisted users. It's a stopgap measure. darcs-hash:20081120183722-84dde-8a8401fbcbb6abb60a8b36de249323586ea0b22c.gz --- lib/common.php | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'lib/common.php') diff --git a/lib/common.php b/lib/common.php index 72965a358..2ab9c616c 100644 --- a/lib/common.php +++ b/lib/common.php @@ -86,7 +86,8 @@ $config = 'avatar' => array('server' => NULL), 'public' => - array('localonly' => true), + array('localonly' => true, + 'blacklist' => array()), 'theme' => array('server' => NULL), 'xmpp' => -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
