How can I filter (remove) certain pages (identified by name) from the results of popular macro?

[Venkatesan Ethirajilu]

I am using Confluence 4.2.1 with MySQL

I would like to remove certain page names of myspace being included in the results of the popular macro. This is needed for the chart to display information none other than certain pages doesn't matter for general users.

Thanks for your help already.

If you remove permissions to those pages for users to view them then they will not show in the popular pages macro. That is about the only way I know how to do it.

Hi Davin, Thanks for your answer. that partially helps. However the pages that I am trying to exclude for users are the pace holders/folders for the pages they need to have access. Its a kind of home pages for different sections of the whole space.

You would have to roll your own version of the popular pages macro then to do this. It is not included out-of-the-box.
