I realise that VB6 is quite old, but so am I. It’s just a wrapper (an easy way to access) an object, such as the browser object called “Document Object Model”. The choice of language is, I think, irrelevant.

The browser object exposes the properties and methods of the HTML document, and any language that can access ActiveX objects will work; VB6 does it quite well with a minimum of fuss.

The problem is that WP is requiring a re-login, probably due to some incorrect hash calculation internally.

Thanks for the help.

Actually I’ve spent more than 10 or 12 hours researching. I’m a programmer and understand PHP and SQL, among other things.

I can’t really complain about anything as WordPress is free, this forum is free, and your advice is free; I haven’t paid any money to anybody. However, as with a lot of free stuff, the documentation is somewhat lacking.

I couldn’t find a simple list, saying “If you want to do this, these are the steps”, “If you want to do that, do this instead”. In that regard, this forum is quite helpful.

I have spent several years on a help desk myself and can empathize.

So now I know what to do, I will delete what I have done and start over.

Thanks for your help. I found a plug-in called “Bulk Create Blogs” which allowed me to create 100 blogs, 20 at a time, from a CSV file. I can open each blog and see the standard WP theme header, and get to the new blog’s dashboard with no problem.

The next step is to propagate the standard settings and theme and plug-ins to all 100 blogs. I’ve just spent more than 3 hours trying to find out which of the 10,000 available plug-ins would do this, and am now quite frustrated.

I tried “Core Tweaks WordPress Setup” and that is now causing an error on each blog:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/spkeasy1/public_html/best-dog-advice.com/wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/all_in_one_seo_pack.php:613) in /home/spkeasy1/public_html/best-dog-advice.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 830 and 831.

Sigh.

I also tried “New WP-MU Blog Defaults” but that only works with new blogs, it doesn’t modify the 100 empty blogs I already have.

You said “you can already set a default theme”. I have set that for the main blog, but I don’t understand how to propagate that to the 100 sub-blogs. They are all still using the default Twenty-Ten theme.

Can you be more specific, please? Telling me that one of the 10,000 plug-ins will do what I want is not tremendously helpful.

You also stated: “in the backend, under Super Admin -> Sites, there’s a three0filed area with which it instantly create new sites”. What is a “three0filed area”?
