  • I’ll be watching this topic, because I want an answer for this as well… There are a ton of similar questions, all unresolved and most closed to new discussion.

    As far as I know, if you need the users to remain at site level, then multisite is not for you.

    From what I have observed with my own sites, when a user registers on a sub blog, they are automatically redirected to the root site to complete user registration and then registered across all sites. This is default and unless you go and edit the WP-signup.php, that’s just the way it’s going to be.

    The domain mapping is not a problem and very easy to do, it’s Via a plug in, i think it’s just called domain mapping or something similar. I have several domain names, the root site is NOT my main site but just a place holder. Then all the other domains feed from the one install. You just map the new domain name to the root site sub directory.

    From what you’ve said, I wouldn’t mess with your main site, and I would create a new multisite install for your clients, however, if you do this, then user control is at the root site level and not (as far as I can make out) at site level.

    Good luck, and I hope someone can give us some more guidance on this subject

    Edit: I will add, although the users are added to all the sites as subscribers, they won’t have any other privileges on those other sites. They won’t be able to create new posts etc or edit anything. Now that I think about it, I don’t know if they’re even made aware of the other sites. Time to setup a test user and experiment again, it’s been a long time since I played with this side of it.

    I like that idea, thanks. No I hadn’t thought of doing it that way. Not sure I can get my head around making it work in that fashion. For me to get this to work, I would have to break up the main sites posts into posts in sub-blogs. And then re-merge them. Sounds more convoluted, but having said that, I can break apart Sitewide tags and see how it does it, maybe there is a way to get where I want to be. I’ll take a look at it.

    yep, that’s pretty much it… AND, I would like each domain to list only certain categories in it’s blog.

    basically, I will keep creating posts on each of the blogs. Some will get created on one blog, some on the other, and another selection on the third. I envisage doing this via a query against the domain name vs category… If its in the category1 and category2, it goes to both domains. Otherwise, it only goes to the domain it’s assigned…

    I COULD just export and import the desired posts, but if I could continue along my current line as well as create a new one, I’d be happy

    I have multisite because I do host several blogs already, the one installation is good. The first link has some good info, I’ll definitely look into that.

    But now, how to get wordpress to load specific style sheets and exclude (or include) particular categories for each MASKD domain?

    My guess is cookies aren’t set right.

    That was my guess too,so I went and deleted them (on the phone only, forgot to on the iPad), it didn’t make any difference.

    So after signing out thru the main blog last night, I refrained from signing back in til this morning. Since then, I have, and signed out from a sub blog without a problem.

    Basically, it’s working again, and I don’t know why. Just an interesting thing to note for next time.

    I don’t know if clearing the cookies was the answer (I don’t think so) or signing out via the main blog was it (I think this had something to do with it), because it fixed the iPad as well. Either way, it’s working …

    I have just come up with a temporary solution, I have found that if I visit the main blog and actually sign out from that master blog, then I am logged out of the others as well.

    Simply logging out of a sub-blog did not actually do this, evidenced by the fact I could see things I shouldn’t, including my dashboard bar at the top of the screen and user only pages…

    I actually downloaded and had a quick look at your plugin, it doesn’t quite do what I was looking for. Obviously, for a contact form, it’s often required that an email is sent to someone. But what I needed (and have been working on today), was working with the comments system to create a new type of page. Basically an old fashioned guestbook page. In this instance I needed the plugin to not emil me, but just insert the user data into the database and retrieve it on the guestbook page.

    I used the comments system to do this, and somewhere along the way I started confusing comments (which work as I needed them) with contact forms (which really do something entirely different).

    I have no use for your plugin at the moment, so it’s remaining deactivated, however, not deleted. Because (basically) I’m sure I’ll find a use for it ??

    Good work, I just wish I had a greater programming knowledge than I actually do so I could get into developing plugins more. But I need to spend LESS time on the computer, not MORE!!! LOL

    The current version of which plugin? I’m now a little confused. I’m talking about the reCAPTCHA plugin authored by BlaenkDenum. Are you involved with this project? I don’t see how you could edit his code, which I only downloaded today and is the stated 3.1.3.

    But now in having a look at what you’ve done, you’ve just killed the better part of my whole day redesigning my current theme’s contact form, because I wanted two different types of contact forms. Took me several hours to do, and now I just found your plugin which looks it would have done it perfectly! DOH!

    I now may just destroy my night and have a look at what you’ve done! LOL

    from the second post with the new code, I just want to know, do we simply insert this code at the top of the said file? or do we replace the existing functions with these? or replace the whole file with just that code?

    remove completely… I’ll implement that filter removal for the time being, but I’ll work on your second part and post back my results. Thanks for your input

    by the way, back when I use to use firefox, I had a plugin that allowed me to do this sort of editing on web pages, I now use chrome, and I don’t think that’s possible for me anymore

    this is just one idea, another would be to have a little “page” icon in front of those entries with new posts, like most forums used…

    I’ll shut-up now ??

    I have done some experimenting, and after adding the following code to my own theme’s functions.php file, it works perfectly as required. Commenters are now only able to bold and italicise there comments. I tried inserting <a href> tag and it was stripped….

    Now I just want to remove raw links, ie links that people enter by just entering the url without any tags what-so-ever…

    eg, https://google.com still get’s rendered in the comment and is even clickable. I want to totally not even have it.

    I’m thinking of searching through the comment and finding any reference to http: and then just deleting everything from there up to the first space…

    I’m now open to ideas on how to achieve that.

    Oh, and the code I put in my functions.php file:

    $allowedtags = array(
    		'b' => array(),
    		'em' => array (), 'i' => array (),
    	);

    Is there a better place for it?

    Thread Starter madivad

    (@madivad)

    I thought I would add, I only want to change the $allowedtags content, where is the best place to do this? Can I add it to my theme’s functions.php file somewhere? and how exactly would I do that?
