In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?If you mean check the footers to see if they changed, no, they all have their original footers. I no longer see any errors when running the code but of course, no change either.
I don’t have any caching going on yet since the site is only under development. The browser cache was cleared.
I don’t mind trying again but wonder maybe we should simply hand code them just to be safe.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?Ok so I got it to run now but it doesn’t seem to be making any changes to the themes. I’m using mainly ‘elegant themes’

In reply to: One button across all sites?Ok, I’m heading back to the other thread then. I’ve got the code running but it’s not changing anything yet.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?I figured out how to get this into a php file and run it but am getting the following error;
mu-plugins]# php hostedon.php
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function add_action() in /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/mu-plugins/hostedon.php on line 16Maybe I am not understanding how this is supposed to run. I installed it into

In reply to: One button across all sites?Haha, I didn’t want to bug you by asking the same thing but for the top :).
Thanks very much again.
Maybe I need to understand something about network sites at this point.
A network site or ‘directory’ based one in this case, is it a stand alone site or it is a sub-site of the first site in the list?What I’ve been wanting is something that will always be at the top, no matter which site people visit and without doing anything to the themes.
I’ve seen things called ‘admin toolbars’ and other things which seem to explain this as an admin bar or a sticky main menu across all sub sites and is why I keep thinking there is something that would display say a set of menus in a small line above all sites.
That’s really what I’m looking for.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?Ah, got it. So, one really should ask when it comes to certain code then.
Thanks, something more to add to my new knowledge.I tell you, I’m greatly impressed with WP considering that for many years, we’ve been working mainly with Joomla and only WP now and then.
We seem to be turning the other way now, WP becoming more used than Joomla.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?Based on some reading I’ve done, looks like I simply hand create it so I think I’ve answered my own question on that last one 🙂
However, the article states;
>Popular plugins that do belong in this folder are ones like Domain >Mapping and New Blog Defaults. Please make sure to always read the >readme.txt included with any plugin, as it will specifically state if it >should be installed in this folder.
Yet, I have these installed and working but they are in the standard plugin directory so, a bit confused.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?This might sound weird but I don’t have an mu-plugins directory?

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?What I was really looking for was some way of hard coding the main site’s URL at the top of each blog site.
But this is great to know. Just learning all of the fun things one can do with the network version.
Thanks!

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?Wonderful, thank you so much for the input and help. I’ll give this a try.

In reply to: Hard coded main site link in each site?I have a network setup so have a main site and then users blogs or sub-sites. On each of those sub-sites, I’d like to have a link back to the main site.
I *don’t* want to get into editing things which will get overwritten with updates so am hoping to find a plugin or something.
As for themes, yes, we hand edit each one to point back but we also need something at the top of each blog site.
I hope that better explains.

In reply to: Fixed permalink for all subdirectory sites?Wonderful, it’s just what I was looking for. Thanks very much.
PS: It’s weird how you can search and search and sometimes never find something until you ask 🙂

In reply to: Sub Domain and Directory based?I wondered this when reading about converting to networked version. The doc said both are very close but in fact, they seem pretty much the same.
Maybe there needs to be an update in .htaccess in order for both to work?

In reply to: Individual blogs = multisite?Anyhow, the combination I was looking for was WPMU, directory based along with a number of plugins which aren’t MU for the main site.
Thanks for the input.

In reply to: Individual blogs = multisite?Hahaha, the MU version actually seems to do everything that I’m looking for.
Weird that I didn’t read that page first.
