Is it possible to centralize a single plugin folder that multiple blogs can use to keep from having to update each blog over and over again.
With the number of blogs and plugins that I have implemented, it's almost impossible for me not to spend time every day doing some sort of upgrading.
Just about as bad as iPhone applications.
Use WordPress Multi-User - upload themes once in themes folder and upload/upgrade plugins once in regular or mu plugins folders? Cheers.
Never tried myself, and not sure if it's safe to share the directory but I would try either
1. create a symbolic link to another wp's plugins directory.
2. or define plugins directory in wp-config.php:
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', '/path/to/wp-content/plugins' );
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_URL', 'http://anotherblog.com/wp-content/plugins' );
Ah, second thought. Method #2 wouldn't work for many plugins. Don't use.
