WPG2 and WordPress MU

  • WPG2 is very impressive – thank you for developing this great plugin.

    Are there docs for implementing WPG2 with WordPress MU? I found discussion about it over the past year but nothing conclusive.

    Ideally I’d like to install a single codebase of WPMU, WPG2 and Gallery2 with the goal of having the appearance of “isolated” Gallery2 installations (both data dirs, template dirs, etc, and database) for each user.

    So, the main issues would be having G2 recognize:

    1) User-specific data directories (/wp-content/blogs.dir/BLOG_ID/files/g2data ? )

    2) User-specific prefixes on all g2 database tables (i.e. wp_BLOGID_), as defined by WPMU’s user-specific $wpdb->prefix field

    3) Remove the ability for each blog admin to view/edit the database and data directory configurations within g2 admin, since this would be determined by WPMU.

    Any suggestions? Is this already possible, am I just missing it?

    Thanks!

    I posted a more detailed request here – https://gallery.menalto.com/node/74071 – I think the use of Gallery2’s multiroot + useralbum modules, with additional code added to the useralbum module to handle automatic creation of guest accounts with appropriate permissions for each useralbum, and code added to WPG2 to set the multiroot settings based on the current WP MU blog being viewed, may accomplish the goal of “isolated” Gallery2 views for each WordPress MU blog, while maintaining a single set of G2 tables and a single G2 codebase.

    Hopefully a WPG2/Gallery2 developer can respond as to whether this is a reasonable way to accomplish the goal.

    Thanks!
