Plugin for first comment/first post? (4 posts)

    I know I can edit these settings in wp-includes/wpmu-functions.php, but I'd like to avoid hacking the core files for convenience sake in future upgrades.

    My questions are:

    1) Is there a plugin that currently allows you to change the content of the first post/comment and the name of the first "commenter" (ie. Not Mr Wordpress).

    2) If not (my searches haven't found any), would it be difficult to create a plugin to do this? I think this would be beneficial for most MU users, so if it's not too tought I might try to do it.

    Thanks!

    Please search the forum before you post. Your question should be asked here: http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=9265

    Ummm...I did post a suggestion there, but why would I ask a question there? and if you read my post...I did search the forum and nothing came up regarding an actual plugin.

    For what it's worth, I have the plugin that is mentioned in the thread you linked to, but the version that was just released doesn't include what I'm looking for.

    And like I said, if you actually read that thread, I did request it, but it wasn't something that ended up being implemented into it.

    I think PerS is pointing out that opening yet another thread on a previously discussed subject is usually frowned upon with most forums.

    You can set your First Post at Dashboard -> Site Admin -> Options -> It's on that page somewhere. You don't have to hardcode the file.

    The First Comment was suggested a few days ago:
