Non-public profile?

I don't wan't my GetSatisfaction profile to be public, particularly not my "Recent activity", and particularly not with a high Google page rank.

nils.toedtmann started following the idea "Remove names from Google index" in Get Satisfaction.

It's in the changlog notification already, and that's great!
I just prefer not to have all the diffs in that notification, too.

Cool, looking forward! Thanks for answering

Very true.

While we are at it: we have a huge wiki (>2500 pages) with lots of changes. Daily notifications can get quite large (100kB) including all the diffs.

So two questions/suggestions:
1| Is it possible to just get the list of changed pages, but not the diffs?
2| Is it possible to just observe the changes of pages on my "watchlist"?

I'll have a look at your RSS help pages right now ...

Thanks for ansewring. The crash issue is solved, nevertheless the missing preview and my lack of confidence in the overall application stability (firefox + OS + battery + wireless + internet connection) makes me still save quite often.

So i suggest you merge changes if they are done by one persion and nobody exept the author him/herself ever had a look in the intermediate versions.

Great, i am looking forward to an improved editor!

Example: where surrouding text gets positioned around tables changes on "Save".

Seemed to have been a one-off problem of firefox after an ubuntu upgrade. Was the first time restarting firefox wasn't enough to get healthy, a reboot was required (old lib versions in memory?).

Fine since then, sorry for bothering you,

nils.toedtmann asked a question in PBwiki on March 09, 2009 22:06:

Gets each "Save" recorded in "recent changes"?

While editing documents, i safe quite often. Particularly because there is no preview (see question "Preview before posting?"), and because my browser likes to die (see problem "PBwiki 2.0 constantly crashes my Firefox 3").

No each "safe" seems to get recorded in the recent changes (which are also part of notifications), while they could easily get summed up, at least when nobody else is editing the same documents and when the changes happen within a short period of time.

End the end, my saving behaviour floods the recent changes list of our PBwiki.

PBwiki 2.0's editor is nice, but it's not WYSIWYG enough to completely abandon a "preview" button.

PBwiki 2.0 constantly crashes my Firefox 3

While editing PBwiki pages, my Firefox 3 (3.0.7, Ubuntu 8.10) repeatedly segfaults after some time. This is probably a Firefox issue, but i have not ran across any other JS app yet which *kills* my Firefox (i am used to Firefox getting extremly slow or freezing ...).

Maybe you find out what's special with PBwiki and file a bug at Mozilla or Ubuntu?

There is a similar topic about FF2 on MacOSX, maybe that's related:

"Any ideas why PBwiki 2.0 crashes when trying to edit in Firefox on Mac?"

Josef, make clear you are tlaking not about the notification body but subject.

A comment on the problem "e-mail notifications were more useful before" in PBwiki:

He's talking about the subject line of the notifications. It was really useful to not have to look *intio* the mail body. – nils.toedtmann, on March 09, 2009 21:18
