Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WordPress MU for 14000 users?More and more MU discussion on this forum, not? Better direct MU users here?
http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/I agree with you, but now that the line is a bit, (more), blurred with version 3 of wp, maybe a forum should be created here for beta MU version 3.
But, as my particular question is not really Beta related, maybe I should start a new topic there or it should be moved.

In reply to: WordPress MU for 14000 users?I already have a dedicated server with a fair amount of memory, (admittedly it is running a bit high at the moment).
but I would hate to migrate 14000 blogs only to find that I need a much beefier machine than the one I am using already.And given that I am planning to run a beta for 6 months or so I will effectively need to support 28000 blogs.
Ideally there would be a way of working out what would be needed _ahead of time_.
… It’s just good, server admin, sense.
I understand what you are trying to say, but a good project manager, a good developer and a good server admin would want a ball park figure of how much hardware is needed ahead of time rather than simply trusting that mu.wordpress is running efficiently.
That, to me would be what a good server admin does.Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WordPress MU for 14000 users?Then you are going to need a powerful server with a lot of memory. Yes, it’s scalable (wordpress.com is running a version of MU IIRC) but it’ll need a hefty server.
I am a little worried about that approach, throwing hardware at the problem might not be the best solution.
I simply don’t know enough about MySQL to know if that is a better solution rather than the same tables with an extra Unique user ID row.Is it really practical to have +90000 tables on a MySQL database, (in my case)?
Is that not a problem in itself?Do you, (or someone), know if there has been some kind of discussion about using that approach?
I just want to re-assure myself that I will not kill my servers because of a bad design to start with.(PS – Don’t sign your posts. We can see who you are by looking to the left of your post 😉 )
It feels a bit rude not to, I don’t know of any forum that advises _against_ signing your posts.

In reply to: WordPress MU for 14000 users?Hum… I already have +14000 blogs, (with my current software I have one user/one blog).
I want users to create a blog when they sign-up

In reply to: Multisite plugin question/requestAlways on: stick it in the mu-plugins folder. may not work for some plugins.
Ah, I did not know that, thanks
you can also edit it so the plugin’s options page is visible only to you, the super admin.
Hum, what I was trying to say is that I would like some plugins available to the users, (harmless ones like twitter and google ads), while hiding/controlling others that are more ‘super-admin’ related.
Might want to read up at http://wpmututorials.com
Thanks, I’ll have a look at it.
