This plugin allows users of a WordPress MU site to map their blog to another domain.

Recent Changes

0.4.1 - the admin pagesnon domain mapped blogs were redirected to an invalid url 0.4 - redirect admin pages to the domain mapped url. Avoids problems with writing posts and image urls showing at the wrong url. Updated documentation on IP addresses for site admins.

The user should go to Tools->Domain Mapping where they can add or delete domains. You, the site administrator must enter the IP or IP addresses (comma deliminated) of your server on this page. The addresses are purely for documentation purposes so the user knows what they are. They do nothing special in the plugin, they're only printed for the user to see.

If mapping a domain, (like 'example.com') your users must create an A record in their DNS pointing at that IP address. They should use multiple A records if your server uses more than one IP address. If your user is mapping a hostname of a domain like www.example.com or blog.example.com it's sufficient to create a CNAME record pointing at their blog url (NOT IP address).

Remote login is not included in this release. A user can be logged in on the main site but not logged in on the domain mapped one, or may even be logged in as another user.
