Recent Posts Plugin. How does one filter out the Hello World welcome Posts for new blogs? On my WPMU site if I list all the recent Posts each time a new Blogs made it includes the default Hello World wp post. Can that be filtered out? Thanks

The recent global posts feed only includes public posts - but doesn't provide a filter that I can see. The easiest solution would be to change your default blog behavior so that the Hello World post is posted as private.

Thanks. How do I "change your default blog behavior so that the Hello World post is posted as private." Where would I do this please?

This should work for you. Put it in a new file named 'shawnsstuff.php' (inside PHP tags) in the mu-plugins folder.
This is vaporcode, which means I didn't actually test it - but it should work exactly as is.

Correction - the "add_action" line at the bottom should be:
add_action( 'wpmu_new_blog', 'ShawnsPrivatizeNewStuff', 1, 1 );Member (joined August 2009) Likes (0)
