   Which Wordpress function displays or returns all post IDs of all media attachments within a certain blog? Or if there isn't one, can anyone help me find a combination of functions which would do these? Ideally I want to retrieve all media attachments for a specific blog, so I'd want my argument/parameter to be the blog id and the return to be an array/object of the details of the attachment or at least the attachment/post id.

   Any piece of advice would be highly appreciated, thanks!

   Regarding the return, I meant an array of arrays/objects or attachment/post ids

   I seemed to have found it, it returns an array of attachment objects. Here it is for anyone whoever needs it as well:

   Here is the function I created:
   

   global $wpdb;
   		if(!is_numeric($blog_id)) {
   			$blog_id = web_get_blog_id($blog_id);
   		}
   		$wpdb->set_blog_id($blog_id, 1);
   
   		$args = array(
   			'post_type' => 'attachment',
   			'post_mime_tyupe' => 'image'
   		);
   
   		if( !$attachments = get_children($args) ) {
   			return false;
   		} else {
   			return $attachments;
   		}

   Thanks for sharing - I've tried your function. What is the function web_get_blog_id()? WordPress complains it doesn't exist.
