Suggestions for adding show only the contributions the user made
I would like to suggest a parameter that will make it to where it shows the contributions that are listed in the show contribs params list which I suggest there should be a param like this:

With that, it will hide the other users contributions that are not in the show users list. The reason I want this is so that we don't have to dig through every contributions to find vandalism or spam and report them to the staff or the vstf wikia like RachelMack1992.Muzzarino 17:30, May 10, 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry about delay responding! Sure, I'll add it to my todo list; should give me a reason to start working on this again.
 * I have added this feature for both the whole script as well as on a per-wiki basis (since why not). Sorry again my delayed response,

Section Links
Links to sections on a page don't link properly. For example, see w:c:atw:ATW:Sandbox. ~Curiouscrab (talk) 00:37, August 2, 2015 (UTC)
 * Shoot, I remember thinking about that, but never wrote it down to fix. Should be working now though (V1.1.2c), thanks for reporting it!

Auto-refresh broken
Hi, the auto-refresh doesn't seem to be working. -Legofan100 18:27, September 4, 2015 UTC
 * Hey, sorry about that! Should be fixed now (V1.1.4b). You may need to clear your cache to get the changes.
 * Thanks! 18:09, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

Favicons from non-Wikia wikis
Hi,

I have noticed that favicons from wikis other than Wikia wikis don't load (see my RCM page).

-LF100
 * Opps, that was broken due to me being an idiot. Should be fixed now (V1.1.4d)

Auto Refresh
Would it be possible to have the auto-refesh box automatically checked? -- So ph  ie  21:33, April 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * The script should remember that you enabled it via a cookie if you've checked it. If for some reason the cookie isn't sufficient for you though (changing computers / clearing cookies often or something else), I could add a ` ` feature if you wish to have it on by default. I'm not really comfortable having it on by default for everyone, since this is a "feature" of this script, instead of the main focus of the script, so to me it's more of an "opt-in" feature. Also, thanks for actually posting me on my talk page, I appreciate it.
 * I think that a ` ` feature would be the best idea because I do change computers often. -- So ph  ie  01:04, April 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'll add that Monday / Tuesday hopefully (along with some small bug fixes I've been putting off).
 * Ok, thanks for the help too. -- So ph  ie  03:00, April 18, 2016 (UTC)
 * Alright, I submitted the changes for review (V1.2.5), so hopefully Wikia accepts the changes soon. Also, I decided to call the attribute "data-autorefresh-enabled" instead. Once the script is accepted / updated, let me know if you have any issues!
 * It doesn't seem to work for me, I tried in an indigo window and in IE (not logged in) and it didn't have the box checked.  -- So ph  ie  08:03, April 22, 2016 (UTC)


 * Try the above, and it should work! - OneTwoThreeFall (talk) 08:31, April 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * It worked. Thanks for the help. -- So ph  ie  08:34, April 22, 2016 (UTC)

Enable namespace param?
I like to watch the forums on Community Central (namespace 2001/Board Thread ), and it would be nice to use RCMultiple to check the forums—without seeing every other edit on CC. ;P If it's possible, I would sure appreciate it! :D

 —［ iynque  ］［  Talk |  Contributions  | 03:18, 25 Apr 2016 ］


 * Sure. It's been on my todo list, but I've been putting it off since wasn't sure if anyone needed it, and it might be a bit of a challenge to implement fully. I'm thinking at first I might not bother with having the UI for it, but instead just supporting a "&namespace=" parameter, if that's fine with you (not sure if you need to easily toggle the setting on/off).


 * That works for me. I don't need it in the UI; just a parameter. Thanks :D
 * Alright, namespace limiting added (V1.2.6). Now just to wait for Wikia to accept the change. It's part of the "params" field. So if you only wanted the change on a single wiki:, or for all wikis on a list:  . You can also limit it to multiple namespaces by separating them with "|".
 * Thank you very much! Works perfectly.

Rollback
Having a rollback link on the QuickDiff modal or the rcm-results container would be very nice, especially since my wiki gets vandals pretty often. maybe? So if you could add that by any means I would be very grateful. 18:19, May 7, 2016 (UTC)
 * Sure! Been meaning to do it, but never got around to it since there's a few headaches involved.
 * After looking into this, it might take me awhile; I'll have to do a bit of a rework in regards to secondary loading I've been putting off after all.
 * Bad news; seems you can't access rollback tokens cross-domain. However, using the idea below, I could try to create an intelligent edit link that selects all the most recent edits by a user (assuming last edit was by them). A bit of a pain, but I can look into it if you'd like. You'd still have to submit the edit manually (since I can't submit an edit cross-domain), but could save some time.

Also I'd like to say you don't need to have the rollback token etc strictly speaking, it could be possible to fork Rollback and make it dynamic for all the RC results. – Ozuzanna 19:35, May 7, 2016 (UTC)
 * I mean, using the rollback token isn't that bad, and I'd prefer to use actual rollback functionality if possible; I don't think I could edit external wikis on the fly that easily like that script does anyways (since security stuff wouldn't want a malicious script to edit external sites in your name). The main issue is that by default I don't know if the current change is the earliest change or not (since "hide minor / self / etc" could prevent the earlier one from being listed), and rollback links should only appear on the most recent change (if there's been more than one edit on the same day).

New Edit Notifcations
Could a popup and blinking table title be added so that the script tells you when there are new edits? --Sop hie  21:23, October 10, 2016 (UTC)
 * In addition to it auto-refreshing, or separate? And while I'm probably over-thinking it, what do you mean by "table title"? Depending exactly what you're looking for, you can also use personal CSS to modify the "previously loaded" text (class="rcm-previouslyLoaded") and make it large, bright, and even blink. Show Example Blink CSS If this is insufficient then I can add an option for something.


 * Dorumin uses this JS to create desktop notifications and make the tab title blink when there are new edits. It also makes it so that the page doesn't auto refresh when viewing a popup diff. --Shar kie  16:31, October 11, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, the page title and Notification popups (I didn't connect popups with your section title, my bad). Sure, I can add those to auto refresh. I never use auto-refresh so I never think of improvements for it. Any other suggestions for when tab is closed and auto refresh is being used? Like should the "previously loaded" text show above the last element you saw when you had the tab open/focused instead of the one from last auto-refresh?
 * I can't think of any ideas off the top of my head, but the "previously loaded" text show above the last element you saw when you had the tab open/focused instead of the one from last auto-refresh sounds like a good idea. --Shar kie  02:35, October 12, 2016 (UTC)
 * Alright, all of this should now be implemented once V1.2.9 is reviewed and goes live. Let me know if you find any bugs / have any other thoughts/suggestions.
 * Could there a way to disable the popups since there are a few users who make a lot of edits and I don't want to hide them because they are admins and imagecontrollers. --Shar kie  07:51, October 14, 2016 (UTC)

Disable for specific users? And if so, per wiki or all wikis on the list? or both?
 * A way to disable for specific users and for all users on the wiki since its not the same user all the time, and for both per wiki and all wikis. --Shar kie  02:57, October 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * Added the following options: data-notifications-hideusers= (effects all wikis on list), &notifications_hideusers= (effects all user on wiki), &notifications_enabled=false (default:true; notifications don't fire for this wiki). Added in V1.2.9d.

Diff Viewer
Could you create an option for clicking diff links and opening with diff viewer by default just like QuickDiff?

Beside, could you make the modal of DiffViewer and AjaxGallery display reposnsively so they can be viewed well by any devices, especially phones/tablets?

Thank you Dai ca superman (talk) 08:38, October 14, 2016 (UTC)
 * Does the icon for ajax diff not show up for you? All links are supposed to be links, which is why the ajax options use icons. As far as mobile, you can't use it in the mobile skin, so I assume in that case you're using the "full site" option. I can't promise it will be able to be viewed "well" (especially on a phone), but I'll see if I can make it so it's at least view-able / usable without stuff getting cut off.
 * Alright, updated the code (V1.2.9c), so should go live within a day. I updated to the new Wikia modal system (mobile friendly) and tweak the "min width" of it's content based on screen size.


 * Thanks. And about the icon of ajax diff and diff links, I still see them clearly, but because of the position of those two, it's pretty hard to choose exactly the icon to show the modal diff on mobile, then I think if your script support an option to combine those two like QuickDiff script, the problem can be solved well. Dai ca superman (talk) 15:48, October 16, 2016 (UTC)
 * Added a new option: data-ajaxlinks="true" (false by default). This will cause "diff" and "changes" links to open diff ajax modal, as well as cause "Upload log" and file names (when to the left of a image icon) to open image ajax modal. This will be active with V1.2.9d

Document Title
As well as blinking "New!", could you also prepend a number to the title like for example (2) if there's two new entries? — Ozank 20:39, October 17, 2016 (UTC)
 * Done! Will go live with V1.2.9e. It's a shame I can't modify the site's favicon to the the number of changes (since Wikia stores the favicon on a different domain). Edit: I currently have it show "New! # changes - pagetitle". If you wanted something different let me know!
 * The tab keeps on say there are new changes after you view the tab. --Sophie 09:10, December 6, 2016 (UTC)
 * I've also noticed this sometimes. I think I know why it happens. Should hopefully be fixed next update.

New pages
Would it be possible to use add the diff viewer for page creation too? That way I don't have to open the page to check it out. 01:59, November 13, 2016 (UTC)
 * Sure, I'll add it to my list. Easy enough to add.
 * I added a new feature: AjaxPagePreview (when V2.1 goes live). It has some issues (as outlined on script's article page), but I figure it's better than a diff for a new page as you can view the images / text. Let me know if this doesn't solve your request.

Colon in blog titles
If there is a colon in a blog title and two or more comments are posted, the link to the blog becomes wrong. e.g. the title is  then the link links to. Is there a way to fix this? -- http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/barbar/de/images/9/9d/DarkBarbarian.png <span style="border: 1px solid #5F4C0B; border-radius:1px 8px 8px 12px; width:620px; background-color: #5E610B; color:lightblue; padding-left:3px;"> Barbar ( talk )  12:52, July 15, 2017 (UTC)
 * Fixed! Will go live with V2.7, thanks for the bug report!

Namespace CSS
Would it possible to add a set of different CSS classes to allow customization for each link depending on the namespace? Something similar can be done with user rights too. 10:11, July 16, 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm surprised I haven't done it for namespaces yet. User rights are a bit tricky; I'd considered it before, but it requires additional calls to the server (much like forum / wall titles do) for each user on each wiki. But since I have an option to turn additional loading off, it should be possible (and an interesting challenge to do efficiently). I'll look into it, and if possible I'll do it for both rights and groups.


 * Looking into it real quick, user info definitely seems possible (might even make a tooltip with basic user info api can fetch). Unless you want it, I think I might skip "rights" for now and just do groups (since everyone has like 20 rights by default).


 * This has been added in version 2.8. See more info here, or just inspect element and figure it out the old fashioned way.


 * Thanks a lot! With user rights I actually meant user groups. Also, if you'd like and you have time, you might as well check this script that basically does what you just implemented, but it's unmaintained, therefore it needs an health check.  20:27, July 22, 2017 (UTC)
 * Fairly simple script (in a good way); everything seems fine to me, no calls seem outdated. Cqm did a bit of a rewrite a little under a year ago, so should be good.
 * P.S.: is there a class for anonymous users?  20:36, July 22, 2017 (UTC)
 * I actually didn't think to do that. It crossed my mind if there was something I could do with anons (in relation to groups), but nothing came to me. I'd add it to my todo list.
 * Anon links now have a "rcm-useranon" class applied to them in V2.9.

Bug in Diff Viewer
A little thing I saw recently. I'm sure this isn't intended. --<span style="border: 1px solid #5F4C0B; border-radius:8px 8px; width:620px; background-color: #CED23F; box-shadow: 4px 6px 7px #3A2F0B;"> http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/barbar/de/images/9/9d/DarkBarbarian.png <span style="border: 1px solid #5F4C0B; border-radius:1px 8px 8px 12px; width:620px; background-color: #5E610B; color:lightblue; padding-left:3px;"> Barbar ( talk )  13:11, July 18, 2017 (UTC)
 * If you could, it would help to know what wiki and what edit (perhaps a history link to the edited page) this happened on, so I could narrow down the issue.
 * Sure. Since this is in every diff I picked a random edit: http://de.boombeach.wikia.com/wiki/Dr._T?action=history (edits from July 19th)--<span style="border: 1px solid #5F4C0B; border-radius:8px 8px; width:620px; background-color: #CED23F; box-shadow: 4px 6px 7px #3A2F0B;"> http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/barbar/de/images/9/9d/DarkBarbarian.png <span style="border: 1px solid #5F4C0B; border-radius:1px 8px 8px 12px; width:620px; background-color: #5E610B; color:lightblue; padding-left:3px;"> Barbar ( talk )  09:13, July 19, 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. This has been addressed and should hopefully be fixed with version 2.8.

Suggestion: view delete content.
Another suggestion here, basically I'd like to suggest to implement this script if possible and if you think it might be useful (since that would work for only content moderators and sysops). 20:30, July 22, 2017 (UTC)
 * Looks do-able enough, and I'll admit I've wanted something like that a few times. Main potential issue is that sysop/etc requirement; if it's a requirement of the API for that call, then it won't work since I can't access login data cross-domain (same issue with rollback, patrolled, and watched info).
 * Why not? Unless I completely missed the point:


 * --  Do ru  min  03:25, July 24, 2017 (UTC)
 * You somewhat missed the point. The request you used doesn't require you to be logged in to access the data; most api calls luckily don't. An example of one that requires login would be http://wikiname.wikia.com/api.php?action=query&format=json&list=recentchanges&rcprop=patrolled. If you paste that link with a wiki domain you're an admin on / have patrolled rights, it'll work. But on one you're not, and it'll say you need the patrolled right. ex: pasting this into the browser console with an wikiname I can access the data from fails for me:


 * Each wiki is on it's own domain, and as far as I've been able to tell, they don't allow you to use the login data from one to access data from another. No scripts really need this feature (since they just run on the current wiki), so I don't think they bothered to loosen security in this area. If there is a way around this though, would allow me to add a few more things (at least for wikia wikis) so would love to be wrong. Either way, still not sure if this is the case for accessing the deleted contents, haven't had time to sit down and look into it.


 * What about adding a simple link to the deleted revision? I'm guessing that if you open that link it will show only if you have the correct rights there. That way, even if you cannot make it display in the same window, will surely save some time in comparison to going though all the steps of special:undelete. Or even doing something like this will raise the same issue? For example, can you see this link?  17:35, July 24, 2017 (UTC)
 * I can't link to the file history (requires a token, which requires you to be logged in to generate (I think)), but can link to Special:Undelete with the target being the current item (ex: ); from there you could choose to view either the page and/or file history. File history would be one click, and page history would be one click and potentially clicking preview. edit: So both would be 2 clicks from this script; one to go to special page, 1 to click the link(s).


 * Better then nothing, I guess.  21:59, July 24, 2017 (UTC)
 * "view/restore" link added to the end of delete logs in V2.9. After looking into it a bit, most of the "ViewDeleted" calls do require permissions (which again it can't detect cross domain as far as I've tried), so sadly it is just a link, but hopefully it useful.

Namespaces
I couldn't help to notice that there is no namespace selector, is there a reason? Too complicated? No useful? 12:43, July 28, 2017 (UTC)
 * A little of both. I actually have the feature in the script using the "namespace" rcparam, but never made a live selector since no one has asked and it's a bit complicated. Main issue for complication is not all wikis having / using the same namespaces, and the fact that custom namespaces actually use the same set of namespace ids on different wikis (100-199, or on newer wikias 112-199). If a user filters on namespace 112, it would filter different things on different wikis (ex: here it's "Extension", on another it might be "Transcript"). I can work around the issue (only show default namespaces or if a custom namespace is chosen only show changes from that wiki), but since no one has requested the UI for it to be added, haven't bothered. I don't have to worry about the above issue with the "namespace" param, since you can have it filter on a wiki-to-wiki basis instead of just every wiki. In short it is possible, just not something I have felt like tackling without a reason to.

Not loading
This script is not loading for me, i'm tried it on two different pc and two different connection. when ever i opening the page its only load till 88% then stopped. I'm facing the problem since tomorrow Thank you.

Update Found the reason.<span style="border:2px solid gold; background:#000; padding: 5px 8px 0px; border-radius: 20px; font-family:gabriola; font-size:130%"> Clash.Bikash   Talk  18:11, September 25, 2017 (UTC)
 * For some reason it's not loading at all for me from quite some time and i have installed it in global.js and the page is Here.
 * <span style="border:2px solid gold; background:#000; padding: 5px 8px 0px; border-radius: 20px; font-family:gabriola; font-size:130%"> Clash.Bikash   Talk  07:09, February 7, 2018 (UTC)
 * After some trial and error the issue appears to be with  as it has an error in initializing; since it's listed before the RCM import the page never gets around to loading it (since it breaks before it reaches it). For now you should remove/comment out the RailWAM line. You'd have to contact the owner of that script about fixing this specific issue. Edit: The issue with thier script is this error: "Uncaught Error: module already implemented: rw.api". I think this is because the script is being run twice, once in the wiki, and once from your JS. I think they may want to use the call   instead of   to prevent the issue (I could be wrong, but not my bug so not going to spend more time on it).
 * Ah, okay Thank you. Update: Changing the position of RailWAM in the list did the trick now it's working fine. <span style="border:2px solid gold; background:#000; padding: 5px 8px 0px; border-radius: 20px; font-family:gabriola; font-size:130%"> Clash.Bikash   Talk  07:11, February 11, 2018 (UTC)

Unpatrolled Marker
Could a red ! be added for edits that are unpatrolled? (example) --Sophie 02:54, January 29, 2018 (UTC)
 * Sadly no. I have the reason hidden away under the "notes" section: "Patrolling not supported at this time. This is due to mediawiki security that prevents patrol info from being accessed unless authorized (severely breaking to script if it attempts it without authorization). Even if the right exists, the info cannot be accessed due to login being required on that wiki which is not available via cross-domain (browser security)." - While the first might be solvable, the later is not really possible without requiring login info.
 * Ah, thanks for explaining it. --Sophie 02:13, February 1, 2018 (UTC)
