Multisite question

  • Hi guys

    We’re setting up a site which has two blogs – one for news, one for “reports” (hard to explain). The reason why we need two blogs is because the reports will be using taxonomies which the news blog will not need. As well have the two having different sets of tags, categories, etc. However, the latest posts from both blogs need to appear on the home page all the time. Is this something that is possible with WP3 Multisite without a plugin? (We were hoping that a PHP script exists that we can simply place in our template because of a plugin’s tendecy to insert files that we don’t need.)

    Many thanks in advance! We really don’t need anything fancy. The idea is really just “Column A: Reports. Column B: News”.

    (you realize plugins are php scripts, yes?)

    Hi Andrea,

    LOL, yes I do. What I meant is that a number of plugins require loading their own css/js, which doesn’t work for because we need this function at the most basic level.

    I’m a bit confused by the plugin you linked to though: I’m reading it as though it’s the answer to our problem, but then it links to the www.remarpro.com tags page, which is seems more like a collection of tags, rather than displaying the multiple blog rolls that we need (which, in our case, are 2 blog rolls).

    The plugin name is confusing. What it does is make a blog that collects posts from ALL blogs on the multisite.

    Hi ipstenu,

    Many thanks for the clarification!

    One quick (and final) question though regarding WP Multisite: will searching on any of the blogs pull results from all the blogs on the multisite, or just that particular blog?
