In reply to: Most Recent Post Feed in User Dashboard gone MissingThat was quick, thanks! We’ll give it a world on our test site soon.

In reply to: Most Recent Post Feed in User Dashboard gone MissingRight, hacking “core” theme files. 😉
Problem is, this solution would only work on sites using the edited theme, not across our entire network with 100+ themes to choose from.
Thanks again though!

In reply to: Most Recent Post Feed in User Dashboard gone MissingIf my solution works for you, perhaps you can be so kind to leave a response
Sure, if I ever get around to implementing it. I just hate hacking core files since that must be done again for WP every update. Thanks again.

In reply to: Most Recent Post Feed in User Dashboard gone MissingThanks! I’ll look into that. I am happy to know though that it’s not just me. Bit surprised, however, that nobody knew about this feed option, or cared to explain how/why it disappeared.

In reply to: Adding All New Users to Main SiteWhere is the mu-plugins folder?
wp-content/mu-plugins
If it’s not there, you need to create the directory as ipstenu mentioned above.
The plugin will only affect new user registrations. Existing users would not be added to the site (blog). If you’re saying you added it and users can’t access your forums, remove it.
FYI: We use the following to add all new registered users as subscriber members of the main blog (site id 1) so they automatically become members of the SimplePress forums we host there. This works whether they create a blog or night.
<?php function tri_new_user($user_id) { add_user_to_blog('1', $user_id, 'subscriber'); } add_action( 'wpmu_new_user', 'tri_new_user'); function tri_new_blogger($blog_id, $user_id) { add_user_to_blog('1', $user_id, 'subscriber' ); } add_action( 'wpmu_new_blog', 'tri_new_blogger', 10, 2 ); ?>Hope this helps.
Clarification: We have edited the function for our reference. You’ll notice that “tri_new_user” basically does the same as “activate_user”.

In reply to: Adding All New Users to Main Sitedirection to a newbie…
Clarification for true noobs: you must wrap that code in php open and close tags to make it a working script!

In reply to: YouTube embed not working in 3.1Remove the links from the view page urls and the videos should embed again just fine. It seems since 3.1 WP has an internal conflict, it auto-converts urls to hyperlinks, and auto-embeds videos, but not if the url is linked.
We just confirmed that by removing the link from the url and updating the post, our videos display. A pain, but a fix nonetheless. Good luck!
Here’s the thing that gets me… wp.com has what seems like randomly attributed one of my self-hosted sites (call it blog x) as my primary blog, with no way to add any other of our wp.org sites. Only wp.com sites can be registered and/or added.
Site stats are still visible on blog x, but the inaccessible config page issue remains there. Site stats on our blogs a, b, c, y and z all say I don’t have rights to view the stats yet I am provided with no way to authorize them.
[sigh]

In reply to: WP Stats not showing in admin bar (v.3.1)Something is definitely going on with wp stats since the jetpack launch. Check out the last few posts here and add your 2.5 cents.
Woah… we have been able to view stats, just couldn’t access the config page. Then today, sure enough, we’re seeing the same error message (as Hollybopp). Reviewing our wp.com dashboard sheds no light on the subject.
Can anyone explain what’s going on? WP Stats is still available and listed as compatible with 3.1 in the plugin repository. But that is clearly not the case.
Wouldn’t some sort of notification be nice rather than just pulling the carpet out from under our feet! :-\
[end rant]
So, I’ve been wondering if anyone might ever provide feedback for the issue I described… and now with this JetPack announcement and the ensuing commentary about what it means for WordPress, I can see how my concerns may never be addressed.
If WP Stats will no longer work as a standalone plugin under WP Multisite, would someone just say so? If it should, any feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance to anyone who may be able to shed some light on this.

In reply to: Network site search no longer working.When you put the wildcard at the END of a word, it only search for word[wildcard].
Then can you explain why a search from site admin (/wp-admin/users.php) for sammy* finds fightingforsammy? The behavior I described above only seems to occur from the network admin user search. :-/ Shouldn’t they both function the same way?

In reply to: Network site search no longer working.It still works, just use the asterisk.
While it does work, I wouldn’t exactly say like a charm. Here’s what I’ve discovered when searching users from /wp-admin/network/users.php …
Searching for sammy* found users: sammy, sammy177, Sammysmama, and sammysmom. User fightingforsammy was NOT included in the search results.
BUT …
When searching for fighting* user fightingforsammy WAS found.
Of course this is just an example of a pattern that I confirmed with a search for newtest* that found user newtestuser but did NOT return user anothernewtestuser, and a search for another* that DID find anothernewtestuser.
So apparently, the asterisk search feature only works if you know what the username begins with. [sigh]

In reply to: Adding All New Users to Main SiteOK. After trying to set the record for most test users created, I think I have the following working to auto-add all new users to the main site, whether or not they create a blog upon signup…
function tri_new_user($user_id) { add_user_to_blog('1', $user_id, 'subscriber'); } add_action( 'wpmu_new_user', 'tri_new_user'); function tri_new_blogger($blog_id, $user_id) { add_user_to_blog('1', $user_id, 'subscriber' ); } add_action( 'wpmu_new_blog', 'tri_new_blogger', 10, 2 );Before I deploy this on our live site, I’m open to any feedback regarding whether this could wreak any unforeseen havoc, or if there might be a cleaner way to do this.
Thanks for all the great input! Progress is a good thing.
