thanks for this tip.

I only have one blog running off my main page, but i got it to work here:

http://mba365.com/one-year-mba-schools/

My main question is this: Any way to exclude the main blog from this listing? AS you can see it is listing ‘mba365′ but i only want to list the other blogs…Thanks!

I am using the thesis theme, and there is no page.php page or anything similar.

I do have an index.php and custom_template.php file, but the only thing in those files is the line
thesis_html_framework();

kinda stumped here

Can’t seem to get this working in WPMU 2.8.1. Hope an update will be coming soon!

Feel free to write up a new tutorial.

If you don’t like how the list-all plugin grabs data, take it up with the plugin dev.

That only applies with wp-super-cache running in full static page mode. I know we’re not running wp-super-cache in full mode as it causes too many issues. (ie Too many plugins fails, mobile support doesn’t work, releasing the cache doesn’t always occur when changes to the blog are made, etc.) I know on all of my installs, wp-super-cache is only running in half mode. Even in half mode, this would still be a bad idea because the plugin isn’t setup to save it;s data anywhere. (At least last time I looked.)

We actually do something along what I suggested and save the data for ‘x’ amount of minutes within either a sitewide mate option record or another database within the table. You’ll note further down in one of my other comments, I make the suggestion as how get_sitestats saves it’s data.

Running this script each and every time isn’t the way to do it though. (No offense, Andrea.)

You probably wouldn’t want to install it just for this reason, but WP-Super-Cache takes care of this issue… This page is cached just like the other blog posts.

Downside of course is the list won’t reflect a newly created blog straight away, but certainly removes the load issue!

As per the instructions.txt of the plugin file:

To put a list call list_all_wpmu_blogs(LIMIT, DISPLAY, BEGIN_WRAP, END_WRAP, ORDER);

Parameters:

LIMIT: can be any number or left blank for unlimited.
DISPLAY: Can be either ‘name’ which displays the blogs name or ‘url’ which displays the address
BEGIN_WRAP: html or other code that you would like if front of the generated html. Example: ”
END_WRAP: html or other code that you would like after the generated html. Example: ”
ORDER: Can be ‘updated’ which lists blogs by last updated, ‘first_created’ which lists blogs by the first blog to the latest, or ‘last_created’ which lists blogs from the latest to the first created
