If you are a WordPress user who would like to run literally thousands of blogs with just one install, you are in luck. WordPress Mu takes the original up a notch. Whereas the original allowed one blog per install, the multi user format (hence the “Mu”) allows the user to create hundreds or even thousands of blogs as easily as one. Since the majority of the codebase is shared with the original version, the gamut of add-ons and plugins are available. It is also stable. You can move forward with confidence knowing that major publications are using it as well.
Some of the plugins available for WordPress Mu include themes and autoblog. Themes allow for administrators to carry out edit functions and to move them to the file folders of users. Autoblog uses RSS feeds to post automatically to any or all of your different blogs. Others include Anarchy Media Player and a plug in manager. The Anarchy Media Player allows audio and video files to be added virtually effortlessly. Some of the supported formats include mp3, mp4, m4v, m4a, m4b and wmv and avi files. Another allows users to easily change the URL.
There are a few differences between WordPress Mu and its one blog predecessor. You will not get the luxury of the famous “five minute install.” The installation for the multi user version is more complicated but is stable. Hosting requirements are also a little more involved. DNS needs to be supported by the host for the functionality of the subdomains. In addition to the assigned roles in the original, site administrators or site “admins” can also be designated. These admins have the ability to edit, add to or even delete blogs and their users. They can also choose to have plugins disabled on created blogs as a default feature.
Additional contrasts between the two include batch updating. WordPress Mu blogs are housed in a single database. Make a change once and it is system wide. The multi user format has a stricter acceptance policy as far as HTML goes. It also does not allow posting through an email message. Although the spinoff may be a bit more complicated on the front end in terms of install times and getting to the know the different features, in the long run time will be saved. There will be no more updating one blog at a time. One update, a click and your whole blog community is updated.
