Hi guys
Ive installed Wordpress mu and I want to set up an online directory of bands in categories. I havent a clue what to do in order to do this. How do I get a members page that lists all the users and when clicked on it takes you to their individual blogs/profile?
thanks
john
Pleeeeeeeese!! Im driven nuts trying to achieve this with other software. WPMU is my last chance!
http://wpmututorials.com/how-to/making-a-member-list-blog-directory/
is one way. It just lists all blogs.
If you wanted to group the blogs, get this plugin:
http://wpmudevorg.wordpress.com/project/Blog-Topics
It has a page template as well. (read the instructions)
That's for if you want to groups the band blogs according to type: grunge, metal, screamo, hip-hop, country - whatever you like. :D
You might want to take a look at what this guy did:
Combinging Blog Topics with Buddy Press
He integrated the blog topics plugin with buddy press.
One of these days, I seriously need to release the next version, as the stuff he's talking about not working isn't even in the current version. (It all works with nice pretty URLS now, but needs stuff integrated into your themes to do it.)
Thanks a million guys, ill try that. Basically im trying to set up a paid membership (for my client) for bands where they get their own profile & can upload youtube vids, mp3s etc. Also he wants a message board where members can post ads.
