Thumbnails of pictures and videos should appear on the home page. Clicking on videos should take users to the video on the blog that has it.</p> <p>2. Short news should be recently updated blogs, and we should do away with the recently updated blogs section. The short news layout should remain and it should update automatically with the most recent appearing at the top left, the second most recent at the top right, etc. Pics should also appear.</p> <p>3. We need a ‘More’ link at the bottom of the sections in the left hand side bar.</p> <p>4. There are too many categories at the top of the homepage. We’d like to have an automated system of displaying the posts. Is it possible to just choose categories and have every new post in that category appearing?</p> <p>5. The box with ‘Enter your email address’ does not say what it’s for.</p> <p>6. There is something wrong with the placement of the ad at the top of the page.</p> <p>7. There’s something wrong with the main story at the top of the home page. Read more doesn’t fit in the space.</p> <p>We’d like you to document whatever you do so that we can learn.

It looks like I will need to spend another $25 a year for dedicated ip to get Wordpress MU to work for me.</p> <p>What I'm trying to do... </p> <p>I have 4-5 domain names / potential websites that will be blog based. I would like them to all appear to be on their own server to the user and what I mean by this specifically is <a href="http://www.blogsite1.com/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.blogsite1.com/index.php</a>, <a href="http://www.blogsite2.com/index.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.blogsite2.com/index.php</a>, etc. Is my only option for wordpress mu with a godaddy setup to have multiple blogs be subdomains such as blogsite1.mainblog.com/index.php? Folders are an option for other hosts? <a href="http://www.mainblog.com/blogsite2/index.php?" rel="nofollow">http://www.mainblog.com/blogsite2/index.php?</a></p> <p>I currently have multiple domains hosted on godaddy and those sites are folders within my main hosting account... how is all of this going to work with wordpress MU?</p> <p>Some of my websites will have similar content. I'm also looking for a way to post a blog update to site 1 and to site 2 if the article happens to relate to both of the sites. Can I do this from one main blog posting interface, distribute a post to multiple blogs?</p> <p>Another situation I'm interested in doing is taking a blog post from a user created blog at say usersblog.blogsite1.com and promote the blog post to the main blog if I feel the post to be ..."worthy." Is there a way to do this in the interface without copying and pasting the text?</p> <p>I would like all of my blogs and forums associated with the blogs to share the same user table but as far as I can tell I can accomplish this without MU.</p> <p>Any advice or guidance would be extremely appreciated. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/14138#post-88246 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 12:00:15 +0000 tmoorewp 88246@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>viniciusandre: you can set the memory limit available for WordPress in the wp-config.php file.
