this removes the userDB-exception in the normal authentication process which affected mostly wiki and blog which are not required any more. We also cleaned up translation messages as this function was not used at all. This is a required step forward a renovation of the jetty server.

News Monitor
Purpose
News Monitor shows YaCy network news and peer events.
Blog and Wiki categories are retired and no longer rendered as linked news entries.
Use it to understand what other peers announced or what the local peer received.
What You Can Do Here
- News Monitor shows YaCy network news and peer events.
- Inspect incoming, processed, outgoing, and published news queues.
- Process received records, delete archived records, or stop selected outgoing publications.
Page Architecture
The page renders records from the four peer-news queues. Each record includes its originator, category, timestamps, distribution count, and attributes.
| Control | Meaning | Values or examples |
|---|---|---|
deletespecific |
Deletion or termination action. Use only with explicit intent. | Process Selected News::Delete Selected News::Abort Publication of Selected News::Delete Selected News |
deleteall |
Deletion or termination action. Use only with explicit intent. | Process All News::Delete All News::Abort Publication of All News::Delete All News |
Correct Use
Select only the records intended for processing or deletion. Stopping an outgoing publication prevents further distribution but does not retract copies already received by other peers.
Access And Safety
The page may be visible, but the backend performs authentication checks for protected actions.
Protected related endpoint(s): /News.html.
Backend checks: administrator authentication.
Automation And API
Page backend: source/net/yacy/htroot/News.java.
| Endpoint | Method | Access | Backend |

mixed | source/net/yacy/htroot/News.java |
Parameter Guide
The table explains values that an agent or script must set deliberately. Parameters not relevant to a task should be omitted or left at the page default. Low-level generated parameters are omitted when they are only meaningful inside the rendered YaCy form.
