In reply to: Installing WP 3.0 blogsYes, you can install it in the root directory and still create multisites.
The table prefix for the primary install can be the default wp_ or whatever you choose for it to be. When you create new sites, WordPress automatically creates the new table prefix based on that. Example:
Site 2 = wp_2_
Site 3 = wp_3_Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: Installing WP 3.0 blogsThey now require you to add a line to your wp-config.php file to enable the Network link to be seen. Open wp-config.php and add this:
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);Upload the file to your install and you should see a Network link under the Tools menu. Click that and you will be taken to a screen with the instructions on how to get multisite mode up and working.

In reply to: Network settings missingOpen wp-config.php and change the line MichaelH had you add to this:
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);The error is due to a colon at the end of that line – should be a semi-colon.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaYou can use the WordPress Beta Tester plugin to convert a 2.9.2 install to 3.0-alpha and get the latest nightly builds via automatic update:

Choose “bleeding edge nightlies” in the plugin’s settings to get you the latest and greatest.

In reply to: get_blogaddress_by_name() issuesQuick update: I changed that function to use get_blogaddress_by_id() instead, and it returns the correct URL for the main blog.
Would still like to know why get_blogaddress_by_name is appending the blog name to the url when using subdirectories.

In reply to: [Plugin: WP Hide Dashboard] Hide Profile menu?Another way to accomplish this would be to use Peter’s Login Redirect plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/peters-login-redirect/

In reply to: Removing links to WP Codex, Forums etc. on the WP control panel@dogante: The user ID is only 1 for the admin account that is set up when WordPress is installed. If there is another user added that is given an administrator role, their user ID would be different, but they would still be an administrator.
I’m going to suggest that you take a look at the Adminize plugin to see if you can hide/disable the areas you mentioned using that: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/
It allows you to choose what role(s) can/cannot have access to certain areas in the WordPress admin area.
I’m also going to suggest that you upgrade that install to version 2.8.5. No sense in developing a client’s site with an outdated version of WordPress.

In reply to: [Plugin: WordPress Beta Tester] PHP error when upgrading pluginsI’ve upgraded your plugin to the latest version, then upgraded my 2.9-rare install to the latest nightly build (bleeding edge) and am still getting this error in my logs:
[18-Oct-2009 05:54:12] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_preferred_from_update_core() in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/wordpress/wp29/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-beta-tester/wp-beta-tester.php on line 69
I know you said you can’t reproduce it, but just wanted to let you know it’s still happening for me with the latest version of the plugin.

In reply to: Allow contributor to upload media@ballyhoo: I’m a member of ThemeHybrid forum and yes, there is a section where Justin provides support for his WordPress plugins, including the Members plugin.

In reply to: Allow contributor to upload media@ballyhoo: You would need to contact Justin Tadlock regarding the Members plugin (he is the author) regarding your question.

In reply to: [Plugin: Get the Image] Beware – try othersIt took me exactly 15 minutes working with the Get The Image plugin before I had it implemented in a project I’m working on. The instructions are easy to read and very straightforward.
I’ve looked through your comments on that post (there’s 3 from you), and Justin answered your first 2 comments here.
Justin contributes so much to the WordPress community in the way of themes, plugins and tutorials, and he does it for free. Yes, you heard me right, FOR FREE. ThemeHybrid doesn’t cost a dime, it’s free, as are the child themes on his site. Same for all of the plugins that he’s created and released to the community – free.
Yes, he does charge $25/year to join his theme club, but that money gets you support for all of the themes and plugins he’s released. What you get in return for that $25/year is priceless. Not only do you get Justin’s help, but also help from the community that he’s built. The answers to any questions that I’ve had about the Hybrid theme or his plugins I have found there simply by searching, as most were already asked.
Its funny to expect people to pay for something they even don’t know if will work.
You didn’t have to buy the Get The Image plugin – you are able to download it free of charge. It comes with a well-written set of instructions, also for free.
Justin isn’t violating the WordPress standards at all. In fact, his business model is one that Matt Mullenweg himself has suggested numerous times to theme and plugin developers – give the product away for free and charge for support.
I wish you luck in finding another plugin that works as well as this one.

In reply to: Allow contributor to upload media@dreamyguy: Justin Tadlock just released this plugin today: Members
From the description:
Members is a plugin that extends your control over your blog. It’s a user, role, and content management plugin that was created to make WordPress a more powerful CMS.
You should be able to tweak the contributors’ capabilities to allow them to upload media.
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: profiles.wordpress.orgI have to echo the others’ sentiments regarding thread/reply tracking in the old profiles, member data (date joined), etc. I also think that the profile image should be smaller. Right now my 150×150 Gravatar image is being stretched to 190×190, which distorts it. Perhaps drop it back to 125×125?
A glitch that I’ve noticed in my new profile is that the download count for my plugin is off. The number in my new profile is 30 downloads higher than the stats on my plugin page show.
Not sure if this is happening to other plugin/theme authors as well.

In reply to: [Plugin: WordPress Beta Tester] PHP error when upgrading pluginsIt uses direct file system access. I don’t get these errors when the Beta Tester plugin is disabled.
I activated the wp_update_plugins debug plugin and here is the feedback that I got from it:
Available transports: Curl Streams Fopen Fsockopen $raw_response: Array ( [headers] => Array ( [content-type] => text/plain; charset=utf-8 [content-length] => 6 [date] => Fri, 04 Sep 2009 13:42:24 GMT [server] => LiteSpeed [connection] => close ) [body] => a:0:{} [response] => Array ( [code] => 200 [message] => OK ) [cookies] => Array ( ) )
All plugins are at their current available versions - nothing needed to be upgraded this morning.
Let me know if there's any other info that I can provide to help you troubleshoot this issue.

In reply to: Allow contributor to upload media@leeroi: I’m the WP Hide Dashboard plugin author. Read this comment for the plugin on my site – it has the code corrections that need to be made in order to accomplish what you want.
