WPMU Power Tools

Current Version: 0.3 (last updated 10/02/08)

WPMU Power Tools is a plugin for site admins that gives them more control over their blog network with a handful of tools. At the moment there are two tools:

PHP Code Executor

Intended mainly for advanced users with knowledge of PHP and WordPress code, you will now be able to easily make modifications to your WPMU site and every blog in your network on the fly. Even if you can’t code, there are some very nice and smart people behind WPMU that can wite you the code to execute.

  • For example: say you want to modify existing blogs users to be registered and logged in to comment? Enter this line in the executor and select all blogs, and it will do the rest.
    update_option(‘comment_registration’, ’1′);

Other possible uses include migrating bloggers from one theme to another, changing permalink settings, adding categories/links, etc.

WPMU Power Clean

Think of this as a registry cleaner, but for WPMU. I don’t like unneeded database entries and spam blogs being in my database, so I created this tool that will cleanup the mess. You can select which options you like and then simply hit PowerClean to do the magic.

Hopefully there will be more tools to come. Feel free to let me know your suggestions for features/tools. Download here.

    Hi,

    Sounds like a great plugin but I can’t download it – just get a garbled file..?

    Thanks for alerting me to that – SVN had muddled my wpmu’s blogs.php file.

    Hi Thanks for the plugin!
    However, I run into a problem.
    I’ve tried to use your script to populate Donncha’s Sitewide Tags plugin. Problem is I get stuck on a page that says “executing”… and actually only the oldest 6 posts appear on the Sitewide Tags blog.
    Any clue why?
    Thanks!

    If it doesn’t output finished, there’s an error in the php code. Probably didn’t paste the code fully, try taking it from here:
    http://pastebin.com/d5b577062

    I stuck error reporting in that one, so you should see the PHP error if there is one.

    An update to the code for populating blogs all on Donncha’s Sitewide Tags plugin.

    Very nice. Thanks! But it would be just dandy to have a tool for cleaning old post drafts/revisions out of the database. Even better if you could do it for specific blogs!

    How could one use this to add a new widget to all existing blogs? (I have hundreds to update & hope this will be able to do the job!)

    Hmmm…..using it on WPMU 2.8.4 to put the following code “update_option(’comment_registration’, ‘1′); ” onto all blogs and…..it runs and completes without problems but the blogs still have the comment_registration set to 0.

    Any ideas?

    What code would I need to run to apply the command to a single blog (so I can test it)??

    thanks
