Any way to remove Gallery files from Latest Activity?

The Latest Activity widget does not allow you to select/deselect "Gallery" as an option:

NoGallery.png

The end result is that all images that I perform activity with in the Gallery show as activity for all members.  I have the Gallery hidden, as I do not want members accessing; however, the fact that I can't hide this activity results in a "back door" that allows access to Gallery files.

I think that this is a pretty serious content security flaw that needs to be addressed ASAP.

Please also see previous similar/related posts/enhancement suggestions:

Administrative rights to remove specific posts from the Recent Activity/Pulse Feeds

Permission which hides that user's posts from recent activity

Hello Paul,

Gallery is not a stand-alone application; hasn't been for a over a year. Therefore the option is no longer there, as we cannot filter by location (the filters are by type, and the Gallery is just another Folder). Also, hidden items do not show up in the Pulse, but the reason why you still see them is because you're only hiding the Gallery folder. You would have to hide every item inside that folder manually if you do not wish them to show up - it is not ideal I understand but it's a way around the problem.

Our efforts to add more configuration to the Activity Widget in Q4 should prove to be useful in accommodating a more selective activity feed.
