   Hi,
   I have multiple blogs and I want to join them together some how. I want one main blog that shows all the posts and comments while the other blogs still hold their own identity.

   For example:
   I have my main blog at http://www.mainblog.com and I want it to show all the blog posts on though that from my other blogs at http://www.blog1.myblog.com, http://www.blog2.myblog.com.

   How do I do this?

   Might want to use Feeds for that or even just an RSS widget if you want to show the posts in a sidebar on those other blogs.

   I have found my solution. I downloaded this plugin that allows each category to have a different theme.

   Then on the templates on the sub blogs, change the category code to this
   

   <ul>
   <?php wp_list_categories('orderby=id&show_count=1
   &use_desc_for_title=0&child_of=8'); ?>
   </ul>

   Have the sub blogs in categories and it appears that the blogs a separate. Then use permlinks for the categories so your URL looks like http://www.mainblog.com/blog1 http://www.mainblog/blog2 etc, then have the subdomains point to those locations.

   Theres probably a better way, but this way works.

   The only thing is that I yet do not know how to remove the category work when I change the template to that code above.
