Hello everyone,
I'm beginning to use MultiBlog. I have some troubles to set the right settings.
My case is:
* 1 website ( ID = 1 )
* 4 blogs ( ID = 2, 3, 4, 5 )
All the templates for every blog and website contains a sidebar with the last entries of Blog ID 5. What's the configuation I missed ? I put the trigger on blog 4 but it seems only to rebuild the main index template when I save an entry for example.
If you have any idea or advises or FAQ or tutorials that would be welcome.
Thank you very much

Keep in mind that the blogs you've mentioned won't automatically refresh when you post something on Blog ID 5.
You will have to either manually rebuild/republish all your other blogs every time you published something on Blog ID 5, or to use PHP Includes or SSI (Server Side Includes).
When using PHP Includes or SSI, you create an index template on Blog ID 5 which to produce the sidebar widget you want as a file, and then include that file on all the other blogs.
Thank you for your reply Mihai. I posted on getsatisfaction.com too.
I didn't update my post. Actually only the index templates are supported. So you're right, the only solution is to use dynamic publishing or server side solutions.
Thank you for your tip, I exactly used this kind of trick :-)
