 * Is there a way to share elements from one blog to another?
 * I would like to set up two blogs on the same domain. One public and one private.
   Using the same theme.
 * And share some blog elements. Mainly I would like to have the navigation menu
   from the public blog to show on the private blog, in addition to the private 
   blogs navigation menu.
 * Other possible elements, might be a calendar that is used across both blogs.
 * Having said all that, the only reason I need to do this, is that it is my understanding
   that you cannot both private and public pages on the same blog – it’s all or 
   nothing. Correct?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * You can keep both posts and pages private by checking the box on the right under
   the Publish Status.
 * But if you want to install separate blogs, start here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_Multiple_Blogs](http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_Multiple_Blogs)

 * Thanks geoff67.
 * Let me clarify. What I meant by a private blog, is one where only logged in users
   have access to the posts / pages. Like a membership site.
 * It would not be for pay, but a very controlled membership base of “users”.

 * You could password-protect them, and give the password to your users… but there’s
   probably a better way.
