First of all how good is wordpress mu? We're running it with buddypress to build a social site. My only concern is that the software will crash if the site is well developed and attracts a lot of members. We have tried every software available out there and didn't like what they offered. We choose word press because of the blog platform. We want our users to have the ability to create professional blogs and wordpress provides that. </p> <p> We would like to add services, apps, and other features to the core word press platform. Will the software allow this? I haven't seen any site that has used wordpress alone to build a social network site. I have personally seen a site that used joomla and it turned out pretty good. We just didn't like this platform. </p> <p> Also will wordpress allow clustering when the time has come to do so? We're running on a shared hosting and it works fine. Reading here people are saying it won't work with the hosting companies. </p> <p>We would like to create a social platform like facebook, myspace, etc... with wordpress. Is this possible?</p> <p>Any help with this is greatly appreciated. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15489#post-88577 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 09:37:11 +0000 otraonline 88577@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>I am seeking someone very familiar with wordpress. ** Please include your top 3 most relevant website links. to this project. </p> <p>I need you to advise on what is smartest way to doing this without having to redo the exisiting site</p> <p>Basically for this project, there is an existing website </p> <p><a href="http://www.asiangayfilms.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.asiangayfilms.com/</a></p> <p>The objective of this project is to </p> <p>1.
