 Project:      Drupal
 Version:      cvs
 Component:    tracker.module
 Category:     feature requests
 Priority:     normal
 Assigned to:  stefan nagtegaal
 Reported by:  stefan nagtegaal
 Updated by:   Boris Mann
 Status:       patch (ready to be committed)

Sorry, but I can't see the use of this. Why would you not want to give
all users (and especially search engines) a view of all activity on the
site?


Just seems like we are mushrooming permissions.

This patch adds an extra permission 'access recent posts tracker' to the
permissions system of drupal. Now, if people have 'access content'
permission, they do _not_ automaticcally have access to the 'recent
posts' tracker..


I would like to use the 'recent posts' or registered users on my sites
only, and I'm quite tired of patching this with every release of
drupal. I hope you guys agree with me, and help me get this small patch
in.


Please review, comment or apply...

Setting to 'patch (ready to be committed)', because I'm using and
testing this patch since tracker.module is in core...


Works as advertised, so please apply if you think the functionality is
missing in core..
