Description Dan Jacobson 2009-06-02 19:18:43 UTC
$wgDefaultUserOptions['rcdays'] affects two different things:
1) the default Special:RecentChanges&days=
2) the default Special:RecentChanges&feed=...&days=
It is maddening to try to make available longer or shorter RSS feeds
without at the same time influencing what users see on
Special:RecentChanges, and visa versa.

The solution is to split $wgDefaultUserOptions['rcdays'] into two
options, (yes, initially set to the same value by default there in
DefaultSettings.php.)

Yes, one could tell the user to remember to add a &days to &feed, but that is only for power users.
