How to create new blogs from a "master" blog ? (3 posts)

    Hi MU Community

    I have created a "master" blog that is already populated with pages of information. Each new blog that gets created must automatically inherit all this content, and have all the same settings. The new blogs are for employees of a company, and each blog is to contain the same info initially.

    Is there a simple way to create/replicate new blogs in MU from a reference "skeleton" blog that includes all content ?

    Many thanks for your comments.

    Take a look at your wp-includes/wpmu-functions.php file as that contains all of your defaults when a new blog is created. (Also wp-admin/includes/schema.php but that's more how the db is created and basic settings.) You should be able to work in what you want there.
