WordPress MU

100% PERFECT MRBRIAN SIR!!!
THANKS IN A MILLION!!! more than words from me.. really appreciate your help.. thank u..

I can't seem to figure out how to set a particular template page to the page that gets auto-created on signup.. The name of the template file name is "page-gallery.php", the template name is "gallery"

Here's the code for creating the new gallery page on registration.

$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts (post_author, post_date, post_date_gmt, post_content, post_excerpt, post_title, post_category, post_name, post_modified, post_modified_gmt, post_status, post_type, to_ping, pinged, post_content_filtered) VALUES ('$user_id', '$now', '$now_gmt', '".$wpdb->escape(__('[gallery=1]'))."', '', '".$wpdb->escape(__('gallery.'))."', '0', '".$wpdb->escape(__('gallery'))."', '$now', '$now_gmt', 'publish', 'page', '', '', '')");

Please help! Thanks a bunch!

I posted the code for that just a few replys up.

How do i go about getting what the post_id is for the new page that's gets created?

I'm assuming i add that query directly below the code for creating the default page in wpmu_functions.php file.

Also, in the example you provided, does the template name go in the '_wp_page_template' section as shown below?

$wpdb->query("insert into $wpdb->postmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) values ('15','_wp_page_template','templatefile.php')");

Thank you very much Brian for your help!

bump

wpdb->insert_id.

where would i incorporate that into the wpmu-functions.php file.. heres my current code, with the addition of Mr. Brian's code?

// Second auto create page
$wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $wpdb->posts (post_author, post_date, post_date_gmt, post_content, post_excerpt, post_title, post_category, post_name, post_modified, post_modified_gmt, post_status, post_type, to_ping, pinged, post_content_filtered) VALUES ('$user_id', '$now', '$now_gmt', '".$wpdb->escape(__('page content example'))."', '', '".$wpdb->escape(__('work'))."', '0', '".$wpdb->escape(__('work'))."', '$now', '$now_gmt', 'publish', 'page', '', '', '')");

// Assign template to second page
/$wpdb->query("insert into $wpdb->postmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) values ('15','work','page_work.php')");

Thank you so much!

somebody has got to make tutorial of this, cause it's great! dedicated to Mr.Brian sir, Lunabyte, Andrea, drmiketemp

Calling for wpmu tutorials!!! :)

I've been unable to make this work, has there been some version upgrade that overwrote the wpmu-functions.php file? I'm using 2.70

I wish the search worked better and was pointed to the right search page from the main page.

benlagrone - there are now plugins available to handle this, as well as optins for default content under Site Admin -> Options menu.

Thanks Andrea!
I updated to 2.7.1 and found options to specify the default post, etc.

I don't see it in the upgrade, is there any way to set default pages on a new user set up?

Thanks again.
