This can not be done from within WordPress MU for the Administrator account, but it <em>can</em> be done in the database. In regular (non-MU) WordPress this wasn't a problem (at least for me in the past), but after I reset the admin account from my own name to 'admin' (without quotes) again the plug-ins menu came back. Note that all 3 fields should be changed back: user_login, user_nicename and display_name.</p> <p>Hope this helps. </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15005#post-88882 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:33:18 +0000 booshtukka 88882@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>This plug-in is not working for me :( I can create the custom field, but whenever I try to save data in them, it does not work.

It's pretty self-explanatory. Use a better name than "your_global_head" so that it doesn't conflict with other plugins.

If not, sorry.. </p> <p>I would like to create a plugin that I can activate on all the blogs I have. The plugin will allow me to add links to external webcam feeds and then display this by inserting a short php statement in any custom page template that I create.</p> <p>The following functionality is required:</p> <p>'Add Image' - Allows me to enter a URL, Image URL and Title.<br /> 'Remove Image' - Lists the Images I have added so I can remove them from the admin if required.<br /> 'Edit Image' - I can edit any of the current images.</p> <p>When I 'Add Image' the website should cache this image from the provided URL onto my server and refresh the image every 5 minutes. When the image is cached, it should be cached in the relevant blog directory with a unique ID per image so that no other files overwrite this file if I add another Image URL with the same file name.<br /> The image cache should always replace the previous image, so there is only ever 1 instance of an image to save server space.<br /> The image information will be stored in a table of the MySQL DB.</p> <p>It should then be possible to display these 3 pieces of data via a custom page template. For this part I just require the PHP Echo statement that I should use.</p> <p>My email is <a href="mailto:n.oliver@nicholasoliver.co.uk">n.oliver@nicholasoliver.co.uk</a></p> <p>Thanks in advance.<br /> Nic </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15316#post-88207 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:49:47 +0000 atgeist 88207@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks DeannaS, that fixed it! </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15316#post-88165 Mon, 09 Nov 2009 13:11:12 +0000 DeannaS 88165@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>Did you check in the database in the site options table to make sure that the meta_key site_admins looks like this:<br /> a:1:{i:0;s:5:"admin";}</p> <p>There was an issue with an earlier upgrade where the format of the site_admins meta key changed and it broke some of the permissions of site admins... </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15316#post-88101 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:53:33 +0000 atgeist 88101@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>I manually upgraded the site to 2.8.5.2 but I'm still not seeing an "upgrade" link nor my "plugins" and "Site Admin" dashboards.

I'm noticing an issue with this plugin after upgrading to 2.8.5.2</p> <p>If I go to the "Usertheme Management" page and enable Userthemes and Theme Editor for various blogs, and then as super admin copy the desired themes through each individual backend, when I return to the "Usertheme Management" page the blogs that I have changed are all highlighted in dark red and it shows them as all pulling their theme from the most recently changed blog ID. Everything functions correctly (as far as I can tell thus far) but it's not displaying the correct information for each blog on this page.</p> <p>Going to the "userthemes" page in the backend of the individual blogs shows the correct theme location and correct blog ID. Any thoughts?</p> <p>Gotta give you props, this plugin is beautiful. I'd love to see it incorporated with the Supporter plugin the premium devs put out. Just a thought.</p> <p>-james </p> http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/15300#post-87915 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:52:41 +0000 scripty 87915@http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/ <p>So just in case anyone finds this and has the same problem I do...</p> <p>CForms works fine so long as ajax enabled is checked OFF for all forms.
