How do users create blogs? (5 posts)

    Hello,
    Not sure if that's the right version or not - I just upgraded to the latest version this morning.

    I'm running WPMU and, seemingly, no matter what theme I try there is no option, anywhere that I can find, for a user to create their own blog.

    I've tried several WPMU themes....and a bunch of WP themes (will those not allow that option?).

    Any pointers? I must be missing something......

    Thanks!
    Rob

    go to yourdomain.com/wp-signup.php.

    the home theme included with MU has this link. Regular WP themes do not, so you have to write a pafe or put direction sin a text link so people visiting your home page can find it.

    Thank you Andrea!

    I did it - created a link - no problem and was able to setup a blog.

    However, when I go to that blog I can a "Forbidden, you don't permission to access / on this server" it's a 403 error.

    Can you point me to the right place to change the permissions?

    Thank you again...
    Rob

    (oh wow, apologies for my typos)

    What kind of setup did you pick on install? Subfolders or subdirectories? Looks like you missed a step.

    No problem - I got what you meant :)

    I have no idea - I installed it last week and don't remember. Is there a way to find out or to redo that step?

    I'll probably be wiping and reinstalling clean in the next day or so as I've done a lot of messing around ...lol
