Title: Multisite Support Last modified: August 22, 2016 --- # Multisite Support * Resolved [Rob_Huska](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rob_huska/) * (@rob_huska) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/) * So I have been searching for a couple of days now and have found very little on this topic, and what I have found is old and I am not sure if it is even relevant anymore. * So I have a WP Multisite I have created some CPTs on the master site. I am now looking to have those same CPTs on the other three sites in my network. But the only option I see to do that is either export/import or the “Get Code” option. But if I need to update the CPTs at all then I will have to maintain them by re-exporting/importing or updating the code in my theme with the new “Get Code”. Is that really the only way to get the CPTs to be visible network wide? Or is there something else built in that I am missing? * If I have the CPTs in the admin, but past the “Get Code” in my theme files, will they conflict with one another? * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/) Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) * Plugin Contributor [Michael Beckwith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tw2113/) * (@tw2113) * The BenchPresser * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824198) * Hi Rob, * The import/export/get code options are only for the settings used to register the post types/taxonomies. It doesn’t copy/export/reference the actual posts and post meta you have within one site, from another. * This isn’t something CPTUI supports either, though I find it an interesting idea to try, at least as a way to sync one time, or any time a user clicks a button. However, I don’t have any sort of timeline or formal plan for it, it’s just an idea. * Querying post type data, especially if you need to link it to the appropriate single url, in multisite is not the most elegant thing ever, due to the fact that each subsite gets its own posts/postmeta table. I don’t know offhand of any post type sync plugins that already exist, but I could believe some possibly existing. Until then, you’d need to manually update each version as necessary. * Thread Starter [Rob_Huska](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rob_huska/) * (@rob_huska) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824201) * I wouldn’t necessarily need the posts themselves to sync (there are plugins for that), but (certain) post types and their options created in CPT UI I would like to share between sites. * What I have done is built the CPT through your admin, then take the code from the Get Code tab and paste it into a theme file I created/included. I then went through and deleted any that I do not want Network wide. This has now created the CPTs on all sites, and the one one the main site is unaffected. * And in testing, I have found if I make changes to the CPT code in the site file, the changes do not reflect on the main site (where the CPTs were created). But that is ok. I would just have to make the changes in the admin, and copy the code back to my file. * But yes a “sync” button between all/certain networked sites would be really nice. Especially if it could be done on a per CPT basis. This way you can limit which CPTs go to which sites. * Plugin Contributor [Michael Beckwith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tw2113/) * (@tw2113) * The BenchPresser * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824231) * The import/export functionality should work as well, and less dealing with functions. php-ready code. It’d match up all of the settings in JSON format for the export, and then parse that back into a wp_options table serialized array after import. * [heba.aklat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hebaaklat/) * (@hebaaklat) * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824307) * Hello Michael, now, i install your plugin and i create custom fields and new post type “named tours”, now, when i’m visit the tour detail i don’t show the custom fields i already filled in my control panel, * how to display all the form data in the website page (front-end) ? * Plugin Contributor [Michael Beckwith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tw2113/) * (@tw2113) * The BenchPresser * [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824313) * You’re going to need to query for and display the custom fields with the * ``` get_post_meta() ``` * function. * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta) Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) The topic ‘Multisite Support’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/custom-post-type-ui/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2744389) * [Custom Post Type UI](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-post-type-ui/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-post-type-ui/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-post-type-ui/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-post-type-ui/reviews/) ## Tags * [cpt](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/cpt/) * [custom post type](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/custom-post-type/) * [multisite](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/multisite/) * [network](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/network/) * 5 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Michael Beckwith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tw2113/) * Last activity: [11 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisite-support-112/#post-5824313) * Status: resolved
