I would like to change the default text for About and also have a few more new pages created automatically with each install calling a custom template.
I have checked out New Blog Defaults, WPMU DEFAULT CONTENT IMPORT and YD WPMU Site-wide Options but they do not do this, so is there a plugin to do this?
If not, can someone kindly let me know the file name where the database writing is done for a new site so I can change the About and add in another entry?
Thank you for your time :D
Go to Super Admin -> Options. Look for "New Site Settings" and "first Page".
For extra pages, see previous threads:

Thank you for your reply.
The page that all those threads talk about using to add in extra pages is the /wp-include/wpmu-funxctions.php file.
As I do not have that file (I have a clean install of WP3.0) I have looked in
/wp-includes/
functions.php
functions.wp-scripts.php
functions.wp-styles.php
ms-functions.php
ms-settings.php
ms-load.php
ms-default-constants.php
ms-load.php
the I looked in
/wp-admin/
admin.php
ms-admin.php
ms-options.php
/wp-admin/includes/
admin.php
ms.php
post.php
but can not find the bit of code I need. Could someone kindly let me know which file I should look in?
Thank you for your time :D

hauruapai I too have been looking for this. It appears that no one knows the answer and this basic feature was simply over-looked when WP3 was developed.
Please see:

Uh, no. the exact code from MU was rolled in mostly as-is. Some functions were renamed and files were moved, but stuff like this wasn't removed.
If you read the code and follow along, you'll notice references to blog creation in ms-functions.php. this calls /wp-admin/upgrades.php.
Where you'll find the function wp_install_defaults, which create the data in the new blog(site).

Thank you very much andrea_r - all working as before now. Thought it must still create a blog/site somehow! I genuinely had looked through all the files but evidently just missed it.
Apologies andrea_r for earlier post; I was really frustrated - seems a little quiet round here, I'll log in more often and see if I can help out on anything.
Glad you're sorted too hauruapai :).
