Readme github.com/9ete/wp-multisite-content-sharing ↗

The WP Multisite Content Sharing plugin allows WordPress Multisite network administrators to mirror posts across different sites within the network. This feature helps maintain consistent content across multiple sites without manual duplication.

Features

  • Content Mirroring: Copy posts from a source site to one or more destination sites in the network.
  • Manual Configuration: Specify source and destination sites directly in the configuration.
  • Automated Synchronization: Set up cron jobs for automatic content synchronization.

Installation

  1. Download the Plugin:
    Clone or download the plugin from the GitHub repository.

  2. Upload Files:
    Upload the plugin files to your WordPress installation directory at /wp-content/plugins/.

  3. Activate the Plugin:
    Go to the WordPress dashboard, navigate to Plugins, and activate the plugin.

Configuration

1. Define Source and Destination Sites

Add the following code to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_MULTISITE_CONTENT_SHARING_SOURCE', 1); // Replace '1' with the source site ID
define('WP_MULTISITE_CONTENT_SHARING_DESTINATION', 2); // Replace '2' with the destination site ID
  • WP_MULTISITE_CONTENT_SHARING_SOURCE: The site ID from which content will be copied.
  • WP_MULTISITE_CONTENT_SHARING_DESTINATION: The site ID where content will be mirrored.

2. Enable Automatic Synchronization

To automate the synchronization process, add this line to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_MULTISITE_CONTENT_SHARING_CRON', true);

This will schedule the synchronization process to run automatically.

Usage Considerations

  1. Consistent Themes and Plugins:
    Ensure both the source and destination sites use compatible themes and have the required plugins activated.

  2. Content Management:
    Monitor the content being mirrored to avoid duplication or conflicts, especially with custom post types or taxonomies.

  3. Testing:
    Perform thorough testing in a staging environment before using the plugin on a live network.
