$blog_id is Wrong

Hey everyone!

I’ve got a strange issue with a multisite-compatible template that I’m working on. Long story short, I’m trying to get timthumb to work on the template, and I’ve got code that works but is dependent on the subsite’s ID.

Normally this is not a problem as I can get it using the global $blog_id. For some reason, however, $blog_id always returns 1, even though I know the current site ID is 5.

$current_site->id is also returning 1 for some reason.

Otherwise, all my code seems to work just fine when I simply set $blog_id = 5;

I should mention that I’m checking the ID in a functions.php function.

Has anybody ever seen anything like this before? What could possibly be causing this to happen on a multisite install? I’m not really sure what else to do at this point.
