Just to clarify, essentially, I want the same conditioning that goes around displaying a post based on the category checkbox to also affect another element on the single post page.

Ahah! You may want this: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/ ??

Thanks for that. I’ll have some work cut out for me if I want to go that route. Hmmm…I may do it though as it would be pretty cool.

But clearly I wasn’t thinking of using this the way it’s created to be. I appreciate your quick help, Ipstenu.

Hmm…maybe I’m thinking of this incorrectly then. I don’t want to have a “main blog” and “sub blogs” from that.

I have three main blogs now, each a different focus, different audience. They’ll never be connected. They’ll always have unique urls and audiences. But I would like to connect them via the backend so I can work on all three without logging into three sites and without having three separate databases. I figured this would do that for me. Make sense?

The bare bones is ok, but I hope someone does a more complete step-by-step. A LOT of us are wanting to do this.

When you say upgrade your MAIN blog, what if they’re all top-level blogs? I have three equally important blogs with separate databases and domains, but all on the same server in different folders.

I’d love to know how to merge the three of them together, bringing in all my posts, customizations, etc.

I’m using 1and1 too and this line solved my problem, too!

maximumbeth–it should be there in the root of your wordpress installation folder. I’m guessing your ftp program is hiding it as a hidden file or something?

Oops–the URL to WPShop:

Just found this thread, but I’ve been looking hard for a WordPress-based shopping cart solution myself. I just found WPShop which seems to have a certain amount of momentum. It’s relatively new and you must integrate with PayPal, but here’s the rub: it works.

I installed this plugin into my site and was able to set up several products and get them to carry all the way through a PayPal purchase with any major credit card. Yay!

That said, it has a lot of bugs. Cataloged items didn’t show up the way I’d have liked in all cases and it’s certainly missing some features. It’s also created in the UK, and I found several items I’d want to change, specifically a version that is US-only as I don’t plan to sell outside the US.

Finally, I think there all sort of opportunities for expansion on this plug in, such as being able to customize more and highlight the best-selling products in your sidebar, etc.

Anyway, this is the most promising solution I’ve found. Love to hear what others think as well as if there are other solutions out there since the last post…

I’m not entirely sure I understand your question, but I can say that I use the Exec-PHP plugin with WordPress 2.01 without a hitch. I also use the FeedList plugin without a problem.

Ptryk,

Since my last post, I played with this quite a bit (mainly in the CSS) and got it working quite well, EXCEPT that I can’t get it to keep the page you’re viewing (or its parent) highlighted to indicate that you’re viewing them and I have no idea why.

Anyway, just a heads-up that I just sent you an email back detailing what I’ve done.

Ptryk, you mentioned in another thread that you had made some changes to the wp-pagesnav to include a home button at the beginning as well as some other tweaks. Would you mind sharing your files? I’d really like that on my site, too. You can send them to cpnm [at] hotmail.com.

One more tidbit. If you don’t want it to say “Site Admin” when people are logged in, go to your wp-includes directory and open the file template-functions-general.php. Search for “Site Admin” and change it to “View Profile” or whatever you want.

nm–I figured it out. For me it was a problem with a plugin: Admin Drop Down Menu… Not sure why, but when I deleted it, everything works fine…

Spinner–I’m having the EXACT same problem. My upgrade to 2.0 went fine, I was logged in fine last night. Today, I try to login and it throws me to a blank page. I can’t get in my admin area at all.

When you say you removed all the rss feeds, what do you mean exactly? I’d like to try that.

I tried deleting the cache and it didn’t help.

Anyone else have suggestions?

PS You can see it in action on the left side of my page.

Yep! It’s possible. Here’s the code I use:

<id="login">
<?php
global $user_ID, $user_identity;
get_currentuserinfo();
if (!$user_ID):
?>
<form name="loginform" id="loginform" action="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php" method="post">
<div><label><?php _e('Username') ?>:<input type="text" name="log" id="log" value="" size="15" tabindex="7" /></label><br />
<label><?php _e('Password') ?>: <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" value="" size="15" tabindex="8" /></label>
<input type="submit" name="Login" value="<?php _e('Login'); ?> &raquo;" tabindex="9" />
<?php wp_register('', ' <i>Registration is FREE and gives you the ability to post comments.</i>'); ?>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"/></div>
</form>
<?php
else:
?>
<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-login.php?action=logout&amp;redirect_to=' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"><?php _e('Logout'); ?></a></li>
</ul>
<?php
endif;
?>
</li>
