[wp-hackers] How to share WordPress posts across multiple blogs

[Hikari]

As I undestood, what he wants is to share posts among sites, but don't share users.

That would be the oppose of WP MU, which shares users but doesn't share posts. He also didn't talk about taxonomies, comments, etc.


I believe this specific need can't be accomplished, since posts use users PK for author. A post created in a site won't have an 
author on the others, and no simple way to identify which site its author is. That may be troublesome.

| Whats the Use-case for sharing posts?
|
| If you're trying to have a blog available from multiple domains, the best
| way is to simply use a single WordPress isntance, and direct all the
| domains to that. By default, the Canonical redirection will kick in and
| redirect it to the primary.
| you can get around that by defining WP_SITEURL and WP_HOME in your config
| file dynamically to the hostname that the request came in on to bypass
| that issue.
