In reply to: [WordPress MU Domain Mapping] plugins_url filter for Must-Use plugins.Thanks a bunch for this, it was driving me nuts with plugins causing broken images all over my site after I imported it into a new MU site. After I tracked it down to the problem function, I googled & found your patch.
I confirm that this fixes the issue for me on 4.2.1.
So sorry, I thought I was in the MU forums. I’ll ask over there, sorry for the noise…

In reply to: Multi-user site with promotion to “showcase” pageAh OK, I just saw where it said Role Manager works for 2.1-2.6. But looking at the website I think it just hasn’t been updated since then.

In reply to: Multi-user site with promotion to “showcase” pageThanks asechrest, those plugins you mention sound great. Half the problem with WordPress is that there are so many plugins it’s hard to even know what’s out there! 🙂
I should mention that this is actually for a smallish (maybe 30 users) group within our company so I’m not even sure that self-registration is necessary.
The Role Manager plugin sounds very interesting, although it looks like it’s not quite ready for 2.7 yet, but one of my big concerns with WordPress was the inability to have fine-grained access over roles.
Anyway, thanks for the pointers, it’s good to know that you have done something like this. The custom query page you mention to only show the one category makes a lot of sense, sounds like it should be pretty simple.
Thanks again to both of you!

In reply to: WP and Membership DirectoryHello Lizbit, it depends on how much data you’re looking to import. This plugin looks like it should do the trick if you just need to import names, email addresses, and roles:

It won’t import directly but you should be able to export from your database into a text file and then use that for the import. Excel and Access should both be able to do a pipe-delimited export.

In reply to: Multi-user site with promotion to “showcase” pageThanks for the suggestion, actually my first thought was also to use Mu but then I got to thinking it might be overkill. One thing that we’ll eventually want to do is have a set of profile pages where the authors can post pretty much whatever they want about themselves. Does Mu support such a feature where user profiles across all blogs can be aggregated in one place also?
The two plugins do look interesting, thanks for the heads up…
