@ubernaut – What do you mean by backtrack? I don’t mind starting over if it will solve my problem….

Thanks for the advice on switching new user roles, but there’s no place to do that in the settings->General

See Screenshot here:

From what I can tell, it should appear before ‘Timezone’

Also, I added the BuddyBlog plugin, but it’s not very robust. There’s no TinyMCE, or anything to format text, and the tags and categories for the post don’t display correctly. In principle, BuddyBlog does what I want, but in reality, I need more functionality from it.

Ideally, I would have the functionality of BuddyBlog, with the full feature set from TinyMCE.

I may be asking too much?

Thanks for all your help. I had read somewhere that MU was disabled with WordPress 3.0, but now realize I think I confused MU with Multisite.(?)

I’m still not totally happy with what I’ve got after installing multisite (I had to reinstall wordpress since the installation had been there more than a month), and now instead of a blog for each individual user, I have a site.

I just want each user to have his own blog, not his own site. I want him to be able to register, and immediately begin posting. I’m afraid that ‘sites’ might scare them off, especially if they have to create their own site.
So the question is: Is there an easy way to get rid of ‘sites’ and just let members make their own posts?
