<font face="Century Schoolbook L">Hi all, <br>
We need to move ASAP to either wordpress MU (multisite
previously called multi-user) or some other medium because the
current solution that we have through liferay CMS just doesn't
work. These are the failures I found while trying to find blog
content :-<br>
<br>
a. It is impossible to find author's blogs except if you go by
date or if you go by <a moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.hamaralinux.org/blogs/">http://www.hamaralinux.org/blogs/</a>
but this defeats the purpose altogether. <br>
b. There are no tags within blog entries <br>
c. Dunno if there is support or not for the <--more-->
flag as all entries go in one-go. <br>
d. The URL's generated are really weird . Please let me know
which is more easy to figure out this - <a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.hamaralinux.org/blogs/-/blogs/that-was-2014?_33_redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hamaralinux.org%2Fblogs%3Fp_p_id%3D33%26p_p_lifecycle%3D0%26p_p_state%3Dnormal%26p_p_mode%3Dview%26p_p_col_id%3Dcolumn-1%26p_p_col_count%3D1">http://www.hamaralinux.org/blogs/-/blogs/that-was-2014?_33_redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hamaralinux.org%2Fblogs%3Fp_p_id%3D33%26p_p_lifecycle%3D0%26p_p_state%3Dnormal%26p_p_mode%3Dview%26p_p_col_id%3Dcolumn-1%26p_p_col_count%3D1</a>
or this - <a moz-do-not-send="true"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://flossexperiences.wordpress.com/2015/04/19/save-the-internet/">https://flossexperiences.wordpress.com/2015/04/19/save-the-internet/</a><br>
<br>
I have always found to gravitate towards web-pages which appear
easy to remember and clean. Also as you can there is tag cloud
so for a potential reader s/he can choose any of the topics s/he
desires and it would be easier to figure out. <br>
<br>
Some links where wordpress MU is being used actively :-<br>
<br>
a. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://data.nasa.gov/">https://data.nasa.gov/</a><br>
b. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.democraticleader.gov/">http://www.democraticleader.gov/</a><br>
c. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.mtv.com/news/">http://www.mtv.com/news/</a><br>
d. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://techcrunch.com/">http://techcrunch.com/</a><br>
e. <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://teachforus.org/">http://teachforus.org/</a><br>
<br>
Wordpress MU is nothing but a feature of Wordpress so in that
sense if we install Wordpress it's easy to configure. <br>
<br>
The only difference from the regular Wordpress site is that you
have a 'Network Admin' and a 'Super Administrator' instead of
Administrator. I do not know how user-friendly the dashboard of
Liferay CMS, but this one is dead simple, sharing my dashboard.
<br>
<br>
I am and would be looking forward for feedback for the same. I
would like if we are able to re-direct all the blogs to
hamaralinux.org/blogs/ . <br>

Agree - wordpress is a much easier to use / better blog.<br>
<br>
modsecurity / fail2ban is pretty essential when using it though.<br>
<br>
Liferay can still import the content from wordpress so that it's
still displayed / linked from the homepage of the website.<br>
<br>
Raise an infra bug for the installation?<br>
