WordPress MU

They don't seem to play nice. On blog creation the blog topic setting won't take and I have to go readjust it as admin later. Anyone run into this as well or know how I may fix it? Thanks!

One quick thing to try would be to look at New Blog Moderation and see what priority is being put on the filter for wpmu_new_blog. Here's the line from blog topics:

add_filter('wpmu_new_blog', array(&$cets_wpmubt, 'set_new_blog_topic'), 101);

If blog topics has a higher priority, switch it to be a lower priority - or vice versa.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

I disabled the new blog moderation for the moment but it would be cool get all the blogs created with say.. with "id > 200" designated the right topic with power tools at once since their are quite a lot. Been working on it but with no luck. Anyone have any ideas?

It wouldn't be that hard. You'd just have to pull the list of all blogs and loop through it and run the set_blog_topic function.

Untested, possible pseudo code:

global $cets_wpmubt, $wpdb;

$blog_list = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT blog_id FROM $wpdb->blogs WHERE blog_id > 1 AND deleted = '0' and spam = '0' and archived = '0';");

foreach ( $blog_list as $blog ) {
    $this->set_blog_topic($blog->blog_id,'1'); //change 1 to whatever you want and do some testing to see if blog meets your parameters
	}

Great. Thanks again.
