    i have custom fields on posts in my blogs but when the loop on the main blog pulls those post it doesn't pull the custom fields or their values.

    Does anyone know any code to do that?

    Because timthumb doesn't work properly on WPMU. Use the "get the image" plugin instead.

    i got the get the image plug in but it seems to be doing the same thing. The problem is that the main has a loop that pulls teh posts from the other blogs but even with this plug in it doesn't pull the custom tags either.

    "The problem is that the main has a loop that pulls teh posts from the other blogs "

    So... how did you do that?

    If you're trying to show all posts on the main page anyway, why not use the sitewide tags plugin?

    I am using the site wide tags plugin and it is getting the posts but it is not getting the additional information of the custom fields.

    All figured out
    got the get the image plugin to make my thumnails and then had to modify the sitewide tags plugin to pull and put in the custom fields on the posts from other blogs.
