Upload Media Buttons
By default WPMU, displays just the upload media button at the top of the Write Post/Page area which can be confusing to new users.
Displaying the upload images, videos and audio buttons can make it easier for them.
Admin Notice Feed
Admin Notices display an abstract of the latest post, using the feed from a blog, on the dashboard of all blogs on your site. You probably wouldn’t use this feature with the Admin Messages and/or Admin ads plugin because these are also displayed in the similar location.
Site Admins
By default, your site admin user has the username admin however you can assign Site Admin access to other users by adding their username to the Site Admin field.
Be careful who you add as site admin users since they have control of your entire site including:
- Manage the access and level of responsibility of all users
- Manage blog features including access to plugins, themes and blog privacy settings
- Batch create new users and new blogs
- Edit posts, pages, comments on any blog
- Reset passwords
Site Wide Language settings
U.S English is the default display language for WordPress. However your community comes with 35 of the most common languages installed.
As site admin you can change the default language site wide to your preferred language. At the same time your users can override this default language setting enabling them to set their own preferred default language (Settings > General).
1. Click on Site Admin > Options
2. Select the default language
3. Then click Update Options
Plugins Menu
WPMU default setting for plugins is disabled. If you want users to be able to access regular plugins you first need to enable them site wide.
