New plugin needed

0

I am using WPMU and Donncah’s domain mapping plugin to manage several blogs/websites. I am the only admin for any of the blogs, with my clients using the Editor role. This is so that they can not mess up things (such as setting, themes, widgets, ect) and create major headaches for me as the admin. However, this presents another issue and that is updated information.

As it is, when a client needs to update information (such as phone, address, ect) they would need to contact me to address this. Not a problem with 10 sites, but when you reach 100’s, that could be a support issue. The plugin I desire would use the DB to store information that is called by the theme for presentation. It would also store variables that can be used in the code of theme templates.

Basically, much like the wp settings, but with the ability to add additional fields on the fly and limit access to admins only, or also to editors. I had a plugin built for this already, but it was geared towards WP and not MU. MU does not seem to like this and I am now getting conflicts with other plugins. So I need this handled by someone that knows MU and can do it the right way.

If you need additional information, please feel free to email me at ednailor @ yahoo.com

    NP, it doesn’t look like there’s’ a heap of interest in it though – could anyone who reads this +1 it if they’d like to see it as a Premium feature ahead of other projects.

    (and LOL too, I don’t think that’s one of your forum improvements I’ll be implementing DrM :slight_smile:

    REVISITED:

    I am adding to this for 2 reasons…

    1. I think it got closed early and therefore overlooked by anyone that would like something like this.

    2. I want to further clarify the idea…

    Every theme allows you to create an Options Page (if not already there.) This is great, but also means that every time you switch from one theme to another you have to reset things.

    Sure there are settings that are unique to each theme, and that is to be expected. But there are things that can be "universal" regardless of the theme you are using, and they can go beyond the normal WP settings.

    @Dr.Mike… I did also post this as a job as I am willing to pay for someone to develop this for me. I have a rough version now that pulls the data in sessions and seemed to work well with WP until I migrated to MU. So I am in need of getting this fixed.

    Ok. Great news! For me anyway.

    I discovered that the plugin commander plugin was the reason my universal settings plugin was now messing up. Now with that corrected I do not still need this plugin created as what I have works. That being said I do think this could be a great addition to the plugins here. Something to consider.

    Go ahead and close this post if no one else shows an interest.

    Thanks
