Hiya !

Thanks for this great plugin ! great because it is the only one of the two compatibles in a multisite environnement on WP 3.0.1, not allowing any network user to see protected area !

BUT : there is a related issue, not depending of your plugin but of WP itself : the problem that any already registered user on the network, or already subscriber to any blog on the network (possible with tne wpmudev plugin “blog registration”, restablishing the per blog registration process so that the subscriber is registered on THIS blog, AND the main one )

Just an idea, but that mean that if you are already registered on the network, you CANNOT register on another blog with same name/mail !!!

In fact we would need a kind on hack of the registration process which would allow a “role request” on THIS blog if already registered !

Well, that was just an idea for you… a good complement for multisites environement !

Thanks again !

Best regards

Aphrodite

The only way to do this, is to add a hidden field to the registration form, where the blogname is extracted from the referrer. But this means the plugin must be activated for all blogs or for the member blog and the main blog.

The other way around is, to give the user the ability to subscribe the shown blog in his user profile. If there are multiple blogs with user registration, this might be the better option!? What do you think?

Well the first part I already have it : blog registration plugin.

Remain “subscribe the shown blog in his user profile.” but would be better on a widget, or by a hack of the registration process….

I don’t want you to break any terms. I’m just interested how it looks like on the users page, so a screenshot or a link to the plugin writers page should be enough.

Hm, I added the function to subscribe to the blog, where the user registration was loaded, but there is a big problem in multisite activation. It seems in the multisite activation no plugins are loaded, because of the WP_INSTALLING constant. (And I couldn’t find a source why this is required or not.)

The function to add a user to a specific blog removes the user from the main blog. Re-Adding them to the main blog would only be possible with a forced subscription at login or something like this.

Added in V1.6.0 in subdomain installations – Thanks for the suggestions!

And added subdirectory installation in 1.6.3 – so this thread should be solved now. 🙂
