Hi,

That is great plugin and good idea.
But i got some problems with it. I can`t save feed links but i can save check box settings. After saving seed links i see that this field still empty.
I am about “New Blog Defaults” plugin

Thank you.

The categories are blog based, not user based, but maybe you mean when a new user creates a new blog.
When i install the plugin into a new 2.8.6 install, new blogs get the new default categories just fine. The plugin works fine.

This plugin works fine with mu-wordpress 2.8.3 but everytime when new user register to blog i have to manualy go in Categories Default and press “Add Categories” so the user get all of the Categories, if i do not do that the user only get default Categorie, is there a way to make this plugin do that auto when new user sign up for new blog ?

[...] Default Categories – using this with the two directly above, we could push out categories correlated with subjects/classes students are taking. Also enables you to push out at a new category to all blogs if necessary – for example we wanted a category “Book Review” that any student could use – instead of each kid one by one we could blast it out.

I would also concur with the guy above. Having a sub-category hack would be so awesome to have. I would add some donation funds if this could happen:)

Great plugin. It is the only one of it’s kind that I have seen. With regard to your question, “I wonder if I should remove the UI, and just make the code very clear with lots of comments? ” I would say yes because it would be easier for you and others to make changes and add new features more easily such as adding sub categories. I do like the UI though, but if it is too hard to make changes, maybe remove the UI. What do you think?

thanks

Would it be better to re-do your donation function? It just takes me to my log-in screen. Just for future passing by to your site:)

QFU,

Would be nice to add fileds for categorial slugs. Thus we could add also categories like विज्ञान, Mahāmudrā, etc.

Abhi, you can do most of what you want using my plugin, the sitewide tags plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags/) and some css to hide the category stuff.

1. covered by wpmu
2. use my plugin to start with default categories, use simple css to hide all areas where categories can be edited. There is another plugin, I cannot recall it’s name, where you can hide admin menus, because you’ll want to hide the category edit page.
3. Us my plugin to search and replace categories for ‘Uncategorized’ and replace it with your new name
4. The site wide tags plugin will combine posts from all blogs into a central blog.

hope that helps.

This is exactly what I am looking for.
I would like to

1. Have a new blog created for every new member
2. Each blog only have x number of categories (users cannot add/edit categories)
3. Each blog starts with another default category besides Uncategorized
4. Create an ‘Archive’ List such as the one in plain vanilla Wordpress with all the categories and blog posts from across the WPMU installation like a list_all_wpmu_blogs on steroids; e.g. Cat1 (49 Posts in 5 Blogs), Cat2 (65 Posts in 13 Blogs)…

Is there a way to do this in WPMU? If not, can we pool our donations together and Deryk you help us out

this plugin is for wordpress MU. it will not work for regular wordpress, and it has no functional use.
