Version Feed

Usage

Accessing RSS feeds

There are two feeds that are automatically created for each page:

  • Page changes: This feed will display all published versions of the page, highlighting any additions or deletions with underscores or strikethroughs. It is accessible with the changes action - so http://mysite.com/mypage/changes
  • Site changes: This will aggregate all the per-page change feeds into one feed and display the most recent 20. It is accessible from any page with the allchanges action - so http://mysite.com/home/allchanges

Enabling / disabling

You can enable or disable the feed on a per-page basis by checking or unchecking the Public History checkbox in the Settings tab of each page. If a page has the Public History option, unchecked, it will not appear in the allchanges feed.

Privacy

A page's history will be completely visible when it has public history enabled, even if some updates were made when it was restricted to only being viewed by authenticated users. So if a page has ever had confidential data on it, it is best to not enable this feature unless the data has entered the public domain.

There is a warning explaining this fact next to the Public History checkbox.
