In my mind, the MU theme should gather all posts and comments as its own. I use two plugins to implement these function.

1.Sitewide recent comments

2.Sitewide Recent Posts for WordPress MU

Of course, the two plugin actually like API lib, you should know some PHP. Don’t worry, it’s so easy. The only thing you should do is exchanging sth with others.

OK, this is my final result, all 3p-blog members collected in the main page.

At first, I tried insert the HTML code directly. However, it failed because WordPress has some security restrictions.

I tried several plugins

XML Google Maps

Geo Mashup

Google Maps for WordPress

They all are difficult for general users like Karen. When I browsed the tutorial of Using Google Maps in WordPress, I found a guy chris advertise his own plugin. He claimed even his grandma can use it. I have to say, it’s a good slogan attracted me. After check it, I know he told the truth.

The plugin is MapPress Easy Google Maps, really very easy. You can edit the map in post and page visually. Although it cannot afford advanced features compared with other plugins, it’s enough for us.

Below is the city I live in, I only spend 20 secs.
