I have been mentioning DSader a lot lately on this blog, and that’s mainly because I have been deep into WordPress Multi-User mode for a couple of weeks now. And between the upgrade to 2.6 and the general overhaul of plugins, themes, etc., I find I’ve devoted no insignificant amount of time to plugin hunting [...]

WPMu “3-in-1″ Widget: Tags, Recent Posts, and Archives
Published by August 18th, 2008 in wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 5 CommentsI already mentioned that Donncha’s Sitewide Tags plugin was going to make a whole lot of things much, much easier. Well, DSader wrapped all the awesomeness into one bitchin’ plugin for WPMu: Sitewide “three-in-one” Multi Widget Panel. I discovered it through James Farmer’s WPMU.org (already proving an invaluable resource) and I just had to test [...]
As a follow up to my last post, I also tested out mapping subdomains with [[CPanel]] on a WPMu installation using Donncha’s Domain Mapping plugin. And surprise, surprise, just about the same method works for mapping just a subdomain to a blog on WPMu. To clarify, when I say mapping just a subdomain I mean [...]
WPMu Domain Mapping Plugin on CPanel
Published by August 14th, 2008 in plugins, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 5 CommentsWell, I have written a bunch about domain mapping on WPMu over the last year or so. Up and until tonight I have been using Richard Bui’s tutorial here along with David Dean’s Multi-Site Manager Plugin. The combination of the two have worked great for me thus far, and I liked that with this combination [...]
Simple Tags Plugin for WordPress
Published by April 10th, 2008 in WordPress, plugins, rss, tags and wpmu. 15 CommentsIf you haven’t tried out the Simple Tags plugin yet, I promise you it will never be too soon. This plugin is extremely powerful, and strikes me more as a full blown application within WP than a simple extension of WordPress. I haven’t even begun to play with all the features it offers, but here [...]
Embedding iFrames on WPMu
Published by April 1st, 2008 in Flickr, UMW Blogs, plugins, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 2 CommentsWhile text encoding is proving hellacious for me with WPMu, embedding iframes has never been easier (keep in mind there are risks involved, so think before you drink!). I found a pretty cool plugin for WPMu (there is also one for a single WP install, so don’t get confused), Google Maps Quicktag, that is specifically [...]
Thank you sir, may I have another RSS feed!
Published by March 8th, 2008 in WordPress, plugins and wpmu. 5 CommentsI think the sir in this title should really be Andre Malan who recently created the Add to BDP RSS, his first plugin for WordPress. It provides functionality I have dreamed of for over a year now. In short, it is a plugin that adds a sidebar widget to a site so that people [...]
Doing Things with Tags in WPMu 1.3
Published by January 14th, 2008 in UMW Blogs, plugins, tags, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 0 CommentsI discovered two cool things today that have to do with WPMu and tags.
First, that WPMu 1.3 (and WP 2.3 for that matter) comes with a stock widget for a tag cloud that doesn’t require a plugin or anything. How did I discover this? Well, UMW History professor Sue Fernsebner had it in [...]
Simple Forums Plugin for WPMu
Published by November 18th, 2007 in UMW Blogs, plugins, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 2 CommentsOnce again, I must thank Dr. Mike for pointing me to the Simple Forums plugin at Yellow Swordfish. This is an amazing plugin that basically allows you to include a pretty powerful forum right into a blog on WPMu. You can see it in action on the Yellow Swordfish site here, or take a [...]
Multiple Domains on WPMu: Mission Accomplished!
Published by November 18th, 2007 in WordPress, plugins, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 16 CommentsWell, I hate to quote our fearless leader out of turn, but unlike him I really was successful!
I had blogged earlier this semester about the potential possibilities available to UMW if we were to pursue mapping multiple domains to one WordPress Multi-User installation–one install, one upgrade, one point of failure–the last one is a quote [...]
