Since this is for a multisite (the same and NOT a different wordpress installation), would any of these plugins give a solution to your question? New Blog Defaults It is a mu-plugin and has been around for some time (I have tried it myself and works just fine). Under “Bonus Settings” you are provided with … Read more
I had nothing to do this lunch, so I put together a little function for this. The main thing is to get all the sites within the network and their id. For that I’m using a simple SQL-Query via the class wpdb: $site_ids = $wpdb->get_results( “SELECT blog_id from $wpdb->blogs” ); It will return a list … Read more
Use a default Multisite installation and enhance this with the plugin MLP – Multilingual Press. You find a lot of information in this post, a better english as my. You find the idea and discussion about this solid solution, benefits in this answer from my side to the same question in WPSE.
A Must Use plugin could do the work. This is just an outline and has to be fully tested: add_shortcode( ‘global_form’, ‘shortcode_wpse_87634’ ); function shortcode_wpse_87634() { // Main site, ID=1, that has the form switch_to_blog( 1 ); // Do your stuff $my_stuff = something(); // maybe do_shortcode // Back to original site restore_current_blog(); // Return … Read more
Thanks to @s1lv3r and @GhostToast for their useful advice in chat I have located the issue. As stated in my original question asked above, I stated that I have tested both FAST-CGI and MOD-PHP, were both continuing to replicate the same error. As stated in chat I have tested on both Ubuntu 12.04 and CentOS … Read more
This can work using the following get_blog_list, originally by Frank Bueltge, and modified to also return each blog name and description. Attention to the use of get_current_blog_id() and switch_to_blog(). /** * Returns an array of arrays containing information about each public blog * hosted on this WPMU install. * * Only blogs marked as public … Read more
You could just prevent slugs matching existing directories. There are two filters for that. Example, not tested: add_filter( ‘wp_unique_post_slug_is_bad_hierarchical_slug’, ‘prevent_directory_slugs’, 10, 2 ); add_filter( ‘wp_unique_post_slug_is_bad_flat_slug’, ‘prevent_directory_slugs’, 10, 2 ); function prevent_directory_slugs( $bool, $slug ) { return is_dir( ABSPATH . “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” . $slug ); }
It’s is good idea to run similar DB updates per site basis. You can store plugins version in wp_options (which are options for current site), then on admin_init compare version and run upgrade. If you want to run more complicated/big updates, I would recommend creating custom upgrade page for plugin and only display admin notice … Read more
In the DB, the wp_user_roles option in wp_options was empty. I copied the value from the same option in wp_2_options, as I had already added another blog. Also, every user from the original blog (it was up and running before being changed to a network) had nothing listed against both the wp_capabilities and wp_user_level options … Read more
The short answer is yes. But it seems that the WordPress team are moving toward encouraging the creation of networks of sites rather than simply using Multisite. I watched this video: http://wordpress.tv/2014/07/26/john-james-jacoby-multisite-and-multi-network/ Which gives a good insight into creating a Network of sites. Each Network can have a different domain. I’m therefore going to install … Read more
