I'm having some difficulty customizing the blog creation process. I can create a new blog just fine, however I'm unable to set any of the blog's options such as the title or description. From what I've observed the wpmu_create_blog() function does not appear to be setting the title correctly. When I look in the database the new blog has a duplicate option entry for "blogname" instead of it replacing the default entry. I have tried passing in the title and description as meta values with the same effect, and I have also tried using update_blog_option() and even directly running a SQL query, but no matter what I do the default values won't budge and a duplicate "option_name" entry is created instead.
I've been pleasantly surprised with how intuitive MU-Wordpress is to code for, however this has me stumped. Any ideas? I am running version 1.2.2.
