Re: What Plug-ins will fulfill these Tasks?
1. Could you set this as a profile field ? For ex. A dropdown list added to the registration page where they state yes or no to a question on hospitality. If they answer yes they can be autojoined to the ‘yes’ group so everyone will know where to look for them.
2. If you are running a WP multisite you could set up a blog called ‘work listings’ or something like that, allow everyone ‘author’ capabilities set up one page as a standardized form and another to show the results of the posted form set the excerpts to show 0 -zero- characters and you’ll have a multipost page with a listing of jobs. – There are a number of plugins that will autojoin users to specific blogs on a multisite –
3. Same thoughts as with 2.
5. If you do a search for plugins there are a few that offer events calendars. Right now I’m using ‘My Calendar’ which offers an easily customizable interface so that you can make it look like your main site.
7. A simple page with a ‘donate’ button linked to paypal or whoever
8. WP multisite does this. If you set it so that users can create a blog on registration they can name the blog anything they like, I don’t know if you can automate the process so that the blog-name field is pulled from their username, or you can have a strict naming policy, add some text to the reg form stating that only the username is acceptable for blog names and set the joining process under moderation so that you have to approve each that way each blog will be called registeredusername.mydomain.com for subdomain installs or mysite.com/regusername for sub directory install.
4 & 6 I have no idea.
As for the plugins most come with the ability to activate either for one blog or for network activation, using the plugin ‘exclude plugins’ you can hide the plugins from your users blogs or allow certain plugins but disallow others. For ex, I have a user that wanted the plugin ‘ephemeris’ on their blog, I installed it, allowed it for that site and they are now happily ephemerising awaywhilst other users aren’t even aware that the plugin exists (they don’t see it on their blogs)
The plugins that I’m using I pulled straight from the WP plugin pages and so far they have all worked on my WPBP site without hiccup,
