Creating mass blogs with WordPress

Now WP is just another piece of bloatware that's become so unneccesarily complicated that you have to PAY someone to make a half decent site. Wordpress is no longer a simple automated solution.

WP a piece of shit now. Why ANYONE would use Wordpress to crank out free sites is beyond me... RSS works without WP.

so what to use?

http://premium.wpmudev.org/ have plugins that will mass create blogs with plugins etc replicated across the network.

I think they are overpriced - but that's just me...

Also, what's the easiest way to share a common list of links (or widget) within the same network of blogs? For example, a blogroll.

<?php
include("/web/sites/youraccount/yourdomain.com/yourwidget.php");
?>

What about using this? I guess it will do it faster and safer(right?)

PHP Code:

<?php
$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 5; // set to zero for no timeout
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://yourdomain.com/blogroll.php');
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
$file_contents = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

// display file
echo $file_contents;
?>

I think only about two of you understand what I want. I must not have typed it up very well.

Thanks anyway. Might just have a script built to do it for me.

I don't really understand how that service above works. I read through the site and didn't quite get it. They can perform all of those functions on my install?

Do you have a more secure solution?

i would create a blogroll on one site that has all your links, then just do a simple query to grab those links.

i need to know the whole situation before giving you advice.

Ok, let's try this again!

Assume I have a list of 200 celebrities. I need to create a blog on my personal WordPress host (*.mydomain.com) for each individual celebrity. The sum of this will be a "Celebrity Network". Every blog will have a blogroll containing a link to every other celebrity. I need this blog roll to somehow be "global" or easily grabable so that whenever I add a new celebrity to the network, I can instantly have a link to that celebrity on every one of my celebrity blogs.

I need two things.

I need to be able to feed a script or plug-in a list of celebrity names and corresponding subdomain identifiers and have this script "create" the blogs. If such a script exists that I can feed it advanced features (themes, widget settings) and have those features carried through with the creation of the blog, even better.

I need to be able to create and use a "global blogroll" allowing me to add a link to one blog roll and have it syndicate throughout the whole network.

I'm not paying a service to do this. If a script does not exist that already does this, I will pay to have it written. If you have experience writing scripts like this, feel free to contact me with a quote.

Could you really write a script like that? Would it only be for a celebrity thing or could it work for say celebrities, porn stars and anything else? Anything else that can have categories and taxonomy I mean. Just curious

You can use a scrubber that will scrub database sites I think, but would be cool to have something designated for wordpress blogs

**freecartoonporn** · 04-17-2012, 09:51 AM

i have done this b4.,

what u want is
wpmu and plugin called "wpmu batch-create"

but make sure you do install another plugin called "wpmu-new-blog-defaults" b4.,

and run the wpmu batch-create plugin whenever you are finally ready.

thank me later.

if you want some things done automated then hit me up., ill tell you easy way for free.,

good luck

i started one project with 500+ autoblogs, within 3 days, all set up and running.
then my host shutdown it because of crappy autoblogging plugin using more resources., and huge mysql db size.,

good luck

What about content, and maybe having the content rearranged like one of those article spinner things?

So where were you pulling your content from? It's easy enough to create the blogs, but the content (original content per say) would be my issue with these things. Feeds will have to be spun somehow, correct?

So you were using up that many resources? Shared hosting. I have 2 with about 100 blogs each and it can slow things down if you get a huge traffic rush one day

It should be fairly easy to mass create the blogs using wordpress multisite.

wpmu function reference:
http://codex.wordpress.org/WPMU_Functions

Add a global plugin to query the links from a specific site's blogroll, or look into publishing a blogroll rss feed and just use the built-in to import the feed from each site.
