I’ve been looking for an answer to this for a while, and I’m starting to think custom code will be the only thing…maybe we should get someone to write a plugin!

I will keep you informed if I find anything out, and would appreciate the same from you!

Yes bro… if nobody can help us or there isn′t a yet a plugin created for this… mabe we can pay together to someone to write a plguin for us!

Be in touch with me at https://www.jpvillani.com.ar

It’s coming. ??

oh wonderful Andrea_r!

so how much time do you think we will have to wait for that to come?
its coming as a plugin or as a feature inside a new actualization of WP?

Thanks!

Awesome! @andrea_r – yes, any timeframe and/or name of the plugin, or reference for us to keep up-to-date? All is appreciated. Thanks!

you could try to start with Blog Templates https://wpmudev.org/project/blog-templates, but it’s payed…

It’s coming as a paid plugin. I just need to finish the docs.

Nice!

we will be waiting for that plugin!!!
Please let us know when its finished!
Where will we find it?

THANKS!

Hi,

Will your plugin allow new sites to be created (cloned) within WPMU that will automatically install with all of the settings of the “top” (first) blog?

I would love to be able to setup the first blog after the initial install as a “master” to include a particular theme and several plugins with custom configurations. Then as I create new blogs, I would like them to be an exact replica of the “master” blog, including carrying over all of the modified settings of the theme and especially the modified settings of plugins.

Please let us know in this thread when this is available?

Thanks!

Jason

@jason – it’s been in a private beta for quite a while. it copies every single thing except for comments.

I don’t think I can link to it in the forums. Follow my blog or my twitter instead.

Andrea, is it the “multi-site” plugin?

Thank you!

This plugin is also useful in adding more options for defaults in new sites https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/

It’s not been updated for 3.0, but I haven’t encountered any issues with it in a 3.0 environment.

I totally agree with miklb. I use it (https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/) myself with no problems as well

@ marikamitsos

Does it carry over your plugin settings when you create a new blog?

Andrea, is it the “multi-site” plugin?

No. ??

The new blog defaults plugin is awesome, but no – it doesn’t pull plugin or theme settings.
