We’re always busy improving our plugins at WPMU DEV and this week we’re very excited to announce the release of Chat 2.0. This release is a massive update of the plugin. Chat is now faster, sleeker and more customizable than ever before. We’ve added in nearly a dozen new features as well as several improvements that make the chat experience more solid.
Introducing Chat 2.0!
New and Improved Chat 2.0 Features:
We last updated WPMU DEV pricing in June 2009, four long years ago!
And since then we’ve:
grown from a few thousand to 200,000+ members
released over a hundred new plugins
pushed tens of thousands of updates
added in videos, anti-splog and the dashboard
developed with insanely wonderful support
grown to a team of over 40 amazing people
And I’ll let you into a secret, we are working on an absolutely amazing theme project right now. It’s coming later this year and it’ll knock your socks off.
So, it’s definitely time for a change and, as of next week, that change is going to happen to our pricing.

We’ve got some great community members at WPMU DEV who are building awesome extensions to our products. The very latest is a free plugin from MarketPressThemes.com that provides a beautiful interface for searching and sorting products across a network of stores.
Solid multisite compatibility is one of the reasons that MarketPress is so popular. There is no better WordPress e-commerce plugin for operating multiple stores with one global shopping cart. This new extension compliments MarketPress’ built-in multisite capabilities.
The MP Product Search Widget plugin features:
At WMPU DEV we’ve released a fresh plugin that lets you connect with your audience — at the perfect moment!
Slide In is an easy marketing tool that allows you to create messages that slide in and show themselves to your users at the exact moment you pick.
Not long ago at WPMU DEV, we found ourselves up the proverbial creek without a paddle. Well, we had a paddle, but it just wasn’t a very good one.
The problem was success. The paddle was gmail. The solution was Help Scout.
Check out the video and/or read on for how it panned out… there’s a special offer at the end.
The Problem – Awesomeness
If you run a WordPress Multisite install, then no doubt you’ve had your hands full trying to manage and/or display posts from across your network.
At WPMU DEV, we’ve built a whole host of plugins that help you do that, everything from Recent Global Posts Widget to Global Site Search to Global Site Tags and many more.
What you might not realize is that all of those plugins rely on a very powerful behind-the-scenes plugin called Post Indexer.
And so today is very good news for Multisite owners because the Post Indexer just got even more powerful.
What It Does
We’re happy to announce that WPMU DEV has released a brand new plugin – the YouTube Featured Video plugin.
This simple, flexible widget lets you select videos from a YouTube channel and then feature them in your sidebar. If you look over to the bottom of the right hand sidebar here on wpmu.org, you’ll see it action.
We wanted this for ourselves, and so we thought a number of you might like it too.
How This Plugin Can Help You
There’s a reason why MarketPress is one of our most popular plugins. As those of us who have used it know, setting up a store with MarketPress is quick and easy. You can be selling online in no time with a store that fits seamlessly into your WordPress theme. But did you know that it is also easy to create a custom theme for your store?
WPMU DEV’s Autoblog plugin is a powerful tool that pulls in RSS feeds and publishes them to your site. Many may think that just means it’s a device for splogs (spam blogs).
While a tool like Autoblog could be used for that, there’s isn’t much point in it. Search engines learned long ago that those types of sites don’t add much, and so they’ve devalued them into near oblivion.
For most tools, their value is only fully realized in the right hands. And that’s the case for Autoblog.
The Autoblog plugin as a splog creator is pretty much worthless.
