Supporting multiple Wordpress installs
Here's a little Perl script that uses some modules off CPAN to :
Find the names and document-root of each website configured on your server
Find the version of Wordpress (if any) for each website, and the Subversion repository version used (if any).
Sort these by name, owner UID, or Wordpress version
Rename the .pl.txt file to .pl, chmod a+x so you can run it, and then:
# <span style="text-decoration: underline;">./show_wp_versions.pl</span>
which would display, for example,
Domain Version Tracking Subversion Owner
----------- -------- ------------------- -----
alphabetcompany.com 2.8 tags/2.8 alphabet
awkwardaardvark.com 2.7.1 tags/2.7.1 aardvark
brilliant-doorstops.co.uk 2.3 dumbasapost
-n sorts by numeric version number; -u sorts alpha by UID.
Very handy when you're supporting a large number of Wordpress installs on a single server, to know who's running what, and who needs to be updated!
NOTE: To install on a fresh system, you will probably need to:
# <span style="text-decoration: underline;">cpan</span>
cpan[3]> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">install App::Info::HTTPD::Apache</span>
cpan[1]> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">install SVN::Class::Info</span>
cpan[2]> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">install Apache::ConfigParser</span>
