 Software: WordPress ("Network" installation)
-This is an installation of WordPress in <code>/var/www/blogs</code>, with LDAP authentication enabled via the AD/LDAP plugin from miniOrange, and the "site network" feature enabled on a path-basis, so users can have their own blogs on URLs like <code>blogs.feministwiki.org/janedoe</code>.
+This is an installation of WordPress in <code>/var/www/blogs</code>, with the "multisite network" feature enabled on a path-basis, so users can have their own blogs on URLs like <code>blogs.feministwiki.org/janedoe</code>.

+This FeministWiki service is disconnected from the regular membership system, and personalized blogs are set up on a per-request basis and more or less belong to the person they are set up for from that point.  (In contrast, all FeministWiki members are automatically at least a "subscriber" on the shared blog, meaning they can post comments, and making them an author is a trivial matter of configuration.)
-Users from LDAP are registered as "subscriber" by default, and the admin has to change their WordPress role manually to allow contribution, authoring, or editing.
-The permalink structure configured in WordPress is <code>/p/%author%/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/</code>, where Apache handles the rewrite from <code>/p/</code> to <code>/index.php/</code> for it to actually work.
+This WordPress installation uses the SQL database called "blogs" and an SQL user of the same name.
