    This is info from me to whoever, I am not affiliated with the plugin named below or its author in any shape form or fashion, I do not and will not receive any money, or anything else for posting this, it is strictly me helping you out with something that I have found and use that has made life 10 times easier for me!

    This little post is for all of those who, like me, have been struggling to find a way to display a page of posts in your main site that would come from or be pulled from all of the sites within your network in the easiest and most effective manner with options and some bells and whistles. Also, I am in no way affiliated with the plugin I will mention here, I am just a guy who has been struggling with this for sometime who finally found this little gold nugget and got away from the junk out there.
    Now, if like me, you have tried some of these plugins like site-wide tags and some of the other junk plugins out there that claim to be the answer to pulling post from site wide or network blogs and found that they were either poorly designed, limit your ability to control how and where you display these posts or are simply frustrating to use, I highly recommend an awesome little plugin called network latest posts by L’Elite at en.8elite.com. Here is the web address of the plugin http://en.8elite.com/network-latest-posts. This is the very best and most functional plugin for this purpose and unlike many other plugins for this purpose, It simply works. The coolest thing is that it will work the way you want it to, on any page you decide and without 3 months of learning curve to use it (took me literally 20 minutes to learn its inner most secrets and nuances). When I found this plugin and gave it a shot,I instantly deleted all of the other plugins (site-wide tags and a few others)and stuck with this, So if your tired of wrestling with junk and poorly written plugins for pulling posts, please give this a try and I know that you will give up all the rest and stick with this one. You will be mondo happy for sure. Once again, I am not in anyway affiliated with this plugin, I simply wanted to give this info because I am tired of everyone referring people to pretty poor plugins and making life with MU a compromise instead of an adventure!

    I guess what I should have wrote was this:
    ((Bye the Way: I wrote that fist out in the editor as an quick outline for my post and accidentally saved it, by the time I finished editing it to what I wanted it all to say when I saved it again, the post editor said the post was too old to edit and wouldnt save it and the edit button won show back up… so I got stuck with that bad post up there and I did not get the edited post in, so here is what It should have read, and sorry to anyone if they got offended by the original, it wasn’t meant to be posted… here is what I was trying to post ))..

    First I wish to say that this is info from me to whoever, I am not affiliated with the plugin named below or its author in any shape form or fashion, I do not and will not receive any money, kudos or credits or anything else for posting this, it is strictly me wishing to help you out with something that I have found and use to make my life easier with wpmu!

    So basically, This post is for all of those who, like me, have been struggling to find a way to display posts from your network of blogs in your main site, anywhere you want and how you want in the easiest way possible (simple control and simple code). As I said, I am in no way affiliated with the plugin I will mention here, I am just a guy who has been struggling with this for quite sometime who finally found this little gold nugget.

    Now, if like me, you have tried some of the plugins like site-wide tags and some of the other similar plugins out there that help with pulling post from site wide or network blogs and found that they were not quite what you were looking for, for some reason or another, Then I highly recommend an awesome little plugin called network latest posts by L’Elite at en.8elite.com. Here is the web address of the plugin http://en.8elite.com/network-latest-posts.

    I wanted to have the freedom to style the posts, display them where I wanted to display them and with the options I wanted (like post name, author, categories, tags and a few others). I also wanted to have the freedom to easily and readily display them or portions of them on any page or place in my main site that I wanted at any time without a lot of controls to fiddle with and figure out or being limited to where I can display stuff or how many places I can display it.

    Now, I know that the major plugins have some of these options but I found most of them to be limiting in someway or another, or have to many controls and things to set up and do to make them work and some of them were just confusing to me.

    This plugin has been a life saver for me and hopefully it will for you as well. http://en.8elite.com/network-latest-posts.

    Actually you should link people here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/network-latest-posts/

    And next time, don’t post it like this in the SUPPORT section, post that as a review, eh? 🙂
