More Testing, Different Plugin
Goodie, there’s a new version. Let’s hope this works.

OK, so I’ve been playing around with the postratings.php plugin that was supposedly for WordPress MU. Like hell, it is. I’m still jerking around to try and get this thing working, and so far, all I’ve managed is to make the bastard not bork my entire blog. At least, so I think.
But of course, if you’re reading this, then I’ve definitely avoided a catastrophe before I went to sleep this evening.
I’ve posted two new articles a few days ago. Their sole purpose was to test the Clean Trunks plugin in the MU environment. It appears as though it will not work without some modification.
The first, most obvious trouble seems to be that Clean Trunks needs to be kept in its own directory, and cannot have the two component files dumped into the /plugins directory on their own.

Just checking a sitemaps plugin that I’ve downloaded and installed. It says that you need to first post a blog entry before the sitemaps are created, . . . so, that’s what I’m doin’.
This blog has officially been upgraded to a WordPress MU site! I’ve been thinking about making some changes to my political website, DragonFlyEye.Net, and I’ve decided that this is the way I’d like to go.
I last did a major overhaul of the site design about a year or so ago. I’d been learning more and more about how to make a proper website, including a lot of lessons learned from working with WordPress, and so I pooled those lessons into a new design that was much more flexible than anything I’d worked with in the past.
