Master Blog Controller? (3 posts)

    I’m trying to do the following with Wordpress MU. After weeks of trying and searching, I’ve just about given up : /

    What I want to have is a master blog (ID 1) who’s content will be translated into many languages manually by translation experts. Each of the translation experts will have a login for their own version of the blog:

    http://www.site.com/sp/ - Spanish
    http://www.site.com/de/ - German
    http://www.site.com/fr/ - French

    etc…

    The content of all these blogs will be controlled by the master blog (ID 1), but they will all be in their own languages. When content on the master blog is added/edited/removed, all the sub blogs update as well with the changed content. I don’t even care if they all update in English; they just need to all update.

    I found a plugin that seems to do this called Multipost MU, but I can’t even get it to work on my installation. It installs but does nothing when I turn it on. My master blog is done and working fine. All I need to do now if find an effective way to administer all the blogs at once.

    Has anyone found a solution like this? I think I’ve come as far as I can. Thanks all. Running WPMU 2.8.6

    Why not post to all the blogs using an external blogging client like Blogdesk (on Windows) which supports posting to multiple blogs at once.

    This software looks interesting, but the question is will it work on the system that I have set up? My blogs use no posts, just pages. I've set it up almost like a full blown CMS rather then blog. Not comments are allowed on the blogs at all.

    Multipost MU really does seem to be a key plugin for what I'm trying to accomplish, but I just can't get it to work :(
