WordPress MU

I have installed WPMU 1.0 and everything is fine but for mu-plugins, which I can't see in the site admin menu.

If I turn on plugins at site admin/options, I cam see the plugins installed at /wp-content/plugins in every blog plugins menu. But I don't see the plugins installed at /wp-content/mu-plugins, in the site admin menu or in the individual blogs plugins menu.

Since the default installation has some pre-installed plugins at /wp-content/mu-plugins I guess I should see them in the site admin menu, right?

Anybody else with this problem?

Nope, that's how it works.

Are you saying that the plugins are activated but you can't see any menu or options for them?

For example, in wp-content/mu-plugins there is the global-categories.php plugin. How can I access it to manage them?

For that specific plugin, there isn't a page to manage it. AFAIK, that one is only half developed and not utilized at the moment. If you read the plugin itself, you can see it doesn't add a menu anywhere. All it does it take each user's categories and add them to a main category table.

Plugins tossed in mu-plugins are automatically activated. *IF* they have an options menu, it should show up. This one doesn't.

Ahhh, thanks. I've downloaded a couple plugins form specifically developed for mu-plugins, and I can see them working the way you described.
