Several Blogs, One Install

I am not sure, someone was looking for ways to manage several blogs off of one WP install. Anyhow there is this new plugin that popped up that some of you might want to consider.

Supposedly it manages themes and plugins plus core files from one location. Allows for multiple admins.

WP HIVE HERE

Plugin Home Page HERE

If you try it, let us know if it’s any good, or just plain sucks. whistle

Hmmm…sounds interesting for sure. I’ll have to take a look at that.

Thanks GSM.

Re: Several Blogs, One Install

So this would allow you to upgrade just one of them and also the plugins and it affects them all? Now that would certainly be a time saver.

Re: Several Blogs, One Install

According to the Plug In page, upgrade or change a theme would effect all the blogs under it’s control. The way it looks, from the warning about admins for the other blogs, is that any change at any blog to the plugin / theme would be for all. So you could do it from any of the blogs.

Thanks for the link, gaystoryman.

I am also keen to hear people’s experience with this.

Re: Several Blogs, One Install

I have not used this plugin, but I have been using a similiar one since November on some 2.3 blogs. Which has been working great obviously. Makes it easy to update plugins and use them all off one install location.
