I believe that you have to go to the Network Admin (the ‘master’ admin), then Sites, then mouse over the site you wish to change, select Edit. So the process is not done from the sub-site’s Dashboard, but from the Network Admin dashboard. You may need to go into the Settings tab on the edit … Read more
Create a separate directory and a (sub) domain for your themes. Lets say the domain is themes.example.com, and the directory is /extra/wp-themes/. Now let all your installations use the new theme root. Or just do the same for plugins to manage all plugins from one place too. Registering a new theme root is not possible … Read more
get_userdata() is a pluggable function, you can find its declaration in wp-includes/pluggable.php. That means, plugins can declare it earlier, and it is not declared, when a plugin is loaded. When you look at wp-settings.php, you can see the load order: // Load active plugins. foreach ( wp_get_active_and_valid_plugins() as $plugin ) include_once( $plugin ); unset( $plugin … Read more
You could just usort the array before iterating. $allBlogPosts = get_posts( array( ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’ )); usort($allBlogPosts, ‘sortPosts’); function sortPosts($a, $b){ return strtotime($a->post_date) – strtotime($b->post_date); } //Your display loop… FYI, if you’re using PHP>=5.3, you can use a closure, which I personally think is cleaner for this type of … Read more
Hope I understand you correctly. Not sure if your /Widgets content would be actual widgets, or just posts/pages, but I’ve been using this plugin for duplicating content between sites on a multisite network: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/diamond-multisite-widgets/ Use the “Broadcast on the network” feature. You can select on which sites you’d like to duplicate the content. 2 caveats: … Read more
So, actually there is two ways to do it. The first one is using switch_to_blog() and restore_current_blog() functions, example: // in this variable you can pass all the blog IDs you would like to display posts from $blog_ids = array( 1, 3 ); foreach( $blog_ids as $id ) { switch_to_blog( $id ); $args = array(); … Read more
The super_admin has access to all admininstrator APIs and also the multi-site functions. If you go to the codex page, it will say so: http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Capability_vs._Role_Table You can find the multisite functions here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference#Multisite_functions If you want to do a more fine-grain investigation of what it can call, I suggest you get familiar with the WP … Read more
Create a subdomain for each language, set the main site to English. Then use the plugin Multilingual Press to chain these subdomains together. It has an option to redirect the visitor to the correct single page too if it is translated on another subdomain (not sure if that is part of the free version). Subdomains … Read more
I finally found the answer myself. It’s two parts: I need the global $switched to be defined. The variable for blog id can’t be $blog_id because that’s reserved. The above code should thus be the following. require_once( “../wp-load.php” ); global $switched; $blog_id_target = 2; switch_to_blog($blog_id_target); $lang = ‘en’; $new_pr = wp_insert_post( array( ‘post_author’ => 1, … Read more
