Hi Andrea,

Thanks for the response again.

Are your subsites marked as private? By default the plugin does not pull posts from private sites.

This is a good question. We have made no setting changes to make any of our sites private, so my thought is no. However since our sites were originally implemented by consultants I can not say with 100% certainty. I googled how to tell if your site is private but found no relevant articles. Can you tell me if there is a line of code or a config setting I should be looking for to verify if my subsite is private or not?

Thanks!

right… since commenting out the template redirect tag fixed my original problem with no negative side effects and i am looking for a way to do that through functions.php removing all the actions associated that tag i am imagining does the same effect. since there seem to be no negative side effects with this what i was looking to accomplish seems to have been found.

i appreciate your time and energy and am thankful for you assistance :). have a great one!

Ok I’ll look that up and see if I can figure out the way to do that. Sounds like that’d be a helpful trick to know for the wordpress toolkit :).

Nope none of these did the trick :/ I am not sure why removing that line of code mentioned in the beginning of this thread worked, and why removing actions did not work, very odd…

Thanks for the response vtxyzzy.

I want to verify I understand the syntax to implement this with you. To remove these actions should I put the code below in functions.php?

function remove_action_template_redirect() {
   remove_action('template_redirect','redirect_canonical');
}
add_action('wp_loaded','remove_action_template_redirect');

and

function remove_action_template_redirect() {
   remove_action( 'template_redirect',   'wp_shortlink_header',             11, 0 );
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', template_redirect'              );

and

function remove_action_template_redirect() {
   remove_action( 'template_redirect', 'maybe_redirect_404' );
}
add_action('wp_loaded','remove_action_template_redirect');

and

function remove_action_template_redirect() {
   remove_action( 'template_redirect', 'wp_old_slug_redirect'              );
}
add_action('wp_loaded','remove_action_template_redirect');

Thanks!

Thanks Ipstenu.

Basically I need the plugin to aggregate at the least 200-300 posts combined from blog 1 and blog 2.

When running in my development site after checking the All blogs checkbox and clicking populate posts it only populates about 300 posts from blog 2 and then times out on a white screen.

However when running in my live site it’s slightly different and this may be the best site to troubleshoot from since it’s the one that is going to matter. After checking the All blogs checkbox and clicking populate posts on the live site it populates 0 posts and quickly takes me to a page that says that the page title is “wordpress >> error” and the content of the page says “Finished importing posts into tags blogs!”. However upon looking at my tags blog I see 0 posts added.

Thanks again to you and the devs of this plugin for your time.

Hi Ipstenu,

Pardon the delay on this response I had a long weekend away from all technology. However it is now Monday and I am back on the task at hand.

Yes it will create 300 posts, however these 300 posts are only from blog 2 and I need the plugin to aggregate at least 200-300 posts from blog 1 and 2.

When it stops short there is no error only a white screen that just hangs. This happens regardless if I set the posts to 50, 100, or 2000.

Thanks again for all your help!

Hi Ipstenu,

Thanks for the response :).

The person who told me and the organization I work for that Multi-site makes it easy to share posts between blogs was the WordPress consultant who we paid over 20,000$ to create our multi-site network, and 2 sites. This consultant also bailed in the middle of the project which has left us, (mostly me)the opportunity to complete the project in the last year :). I have actually been very grateful for this opportunity and thus far have been able to manage wordpress great, learning and implementing all sorts of things. This particular issue has been the first road block thus far.

Unfortunately it doesn’t surprise that our old consultant wasn’t transparent with us on Multisite’s functionality, as he has had a record of telling us what we wanted to hear just to make the sale… unfortunately we believed him. I was wondering why him and his team minimally touched the sharing content between blogs in our implementation.

None the less the show must go on.

Thanks for the clarity on how people may perceive the “without a plugin” sentence. This makes sense, and I can understand where people may make that interpretation. I personally have no preference between code and plugin. I’m more in the whatever works camp of philosophy. My problem is the “wordpress mu sitewide tags” plugin has not worked for my development or live environment. It either will not populate posts or will only populate like 300 posts then stop short. I’d love to use this plugin if it worked for me.

I am hoping this is not the only solution and someone has the magic code to do a content share between blogs, but if that is the only option I will make due with it.

Thanks again for your help Ipstenu!
