We just upgraded to MW 1.14. We display an RSS feed of our recent changes on our main page. With 1.11, the URL's of the changed articles just pointed to the articles. Now they have appended to them a request for diffs, eg: "&diff=24679&oldid=prev"

Is there a setting to NOT have this code appended to the URLs? We've set $wgFeedDiffCutoff = 0; but that only prevents the diffs from being shown on the feed page. It doesn't remove the request to show diffs from the URL that people will click on.

I think the code that does this is in PageHistory.php: return new FeedItem( $title, $text, $this->mTitle->getFullUrl( 'diff=' . $rev->getId() . '&oldid=prev' ), <<<< appends to URL $rev->getTimestamp(), $rev->getUserText(), $this->mTitle->getTalkPage()->getFullUrl() ); }

Would it not make sense to have the URL be "simple" if $wgFeedDiffCutoff = 0 ? I think I can hack the above code (if it's the right code), but I try to avoid doing that.

Thanks! Michelle
