Thank you,
For others who may read this, that was solid advice. I did cram on learning multi site and have it running fine, but in honest reflection that was time wasted. In a case like this the savings offered by multisite are minimal and won’t come close to equaling the time spent. A small number of sites doesn’t demand the combined administration. Cutting and pasting will be fine. This is more where a good text editor like vi, or anything that does nice effortless regex search and replace (or simple dumb search and replace) and a basic knowledge of SQL and scripting language of your choice would seem a more appropriate tool, but even then it would not save much time vs pasting in content via browser (and not safe if you hose your db doing something stupid, as some of us have in the past… I hope just in the past).

Anyhow, so much of programming our web development comes down to picking the right tools. I was making the mistake of misreading the abilities of multisite and not properly thinking through my needs because this is just a small side project. Since I care about it, though, it fills to take up whatever time it can and I need to take a proper methodical approach instead.

I know I went off on somewhat of a tangent but, hey, if I can’t learn from my mistakes massive someone can!
