Currently, all new/updated items get automatically displayed in the tracker. It would be nice to have configuration options over which items get displayed -- story, blog, image, comments, etc. An option to only display new (as opposed to updated) would also be good.
These might be configurable on a per-user basis, or on a per-role basis, but for starters have an admin screen.
Currently I have a hack which just wraps an "if" around line 77 where the items get added to row, and checks the type of entry, adding only those that I want displayed.

moshe weitzman commentedI'd like to see this done with a querystring parameter, not Admin settings. See my comments for this post.

dublin drupaller commentedHi Boris...
I'm trying to do the same - restrict node types listed from the tracker.module...am trying to come up with a specific query filter..but my SQL is limited and I'm waiting for others to help out.
Can you paste up here the "IF" statement you are using in your hack that you mentioned?
Appreciate it..the node_type_filter wouldn't work for me...I think it's only 4.6. compatible..I need to be able to filter tracker.module results in 4.5.

boris mann commentedI'm activating this again. This is a valid core feature request.
Dub, I emailed you already...I was working with 4.2, so changes no longer apply. Also, please don't set active to "old" versions...for core modules, changes can only be applied to CVS.

boris mann commentedUse views module if you need different functionality.
Comment #8
cascadianow commentedI also would like to see an easy way to configure tracker. Defining a new view seems overly complex for something that should be a simple config issue.
