Hi Andrea,

Really hoping you can help me out…

Let me start by saying that I’m green as Dublin grass when it comes to “webmaster” type stuff…so please bear with me…

Trying to do this trick in WP 3.0.1, and I’m having a little trouble making this work….do I need to change the username or something to enable this 1st?

I disabled all the other themes in the Network site area so only my chosen theme for the main domain comes up.

Then, I turned around & followed everything you said to do here, and even though I clicked the theme option I want to appear on the site…it doesn’t appear when I go to activate it to begin working in my new site.

What’s the deal?

Still coming up with the site theme that’s on the main blog only. Matter of fact, anytime I’m editing, I only see the main blog name. so. When I’m trying to set up my other blogs, EVERYTHING changes on the main blog as well…

Can you help me?

To do disable plugin for user pages, try the plugin called Exclude Plugins.

I wish WP 3.0 had this feature for plugins in the core.
Using Plugin Commander and it only stops all from not using it.
Wish there was a plug in that’s free that will allow plugins by site

There is a plugin for WPMU to manage plugins called PLUGIN COMMANDER if I spelled it right. Go to wpmudev.org to see if they still have it there.

Is there a way to do something similar for plugins? It seems that they are either part of the mu-plugins directory or activate one at a time. Not a lot of in-between.
