Creating multiple blogs efficiently with Yahoo hosting

    In the press release announcing Word Press is now available via Yahoo hosting, it says a single blog or dozens can be created in “seconds”. I was wondering if anyone knew an efficient way to create multiple blogs from within the Yahoo hosting and admin. interface.

    I called Yahoo tech support and they said they couldn’t support Word Press questions.

    Is there a way to modify the settings for one blog and then create new blogs that all share the same properties… instead of having to create each blog individually and then modify.

    I know there are some hacks for multiple blogs if you are hosting but if Yahoo is hosting, what is the best way to create multiple blogs sharing the same properties.

    Thanks!

    I’m trying to set up WordPress MU on Yahoo hosting… We’ll see how it goes.

    My first hiccup was locating the database name, userid, password, and database host. There’s no way to find it through the Yahoo admin screens. So I called customer support… I got the same answer you guys got, but the guy gave me an email address to the “Yahoo PHP team”. Well, I’ve sent an email off to them to see if they can help me… If I get any decent support from this, I’ll post the email address.

    Has anyone used WordPress MU before? If so, can you programmatically spawn new blogs? Or does it always take ‘hands-on’ to create a new one? I want to create a LOT of blogs (thousands… one for each member of a site I’m starting). Do you think WordPress MU will be able to handle this? If not, is there a product or open source out there that can do this?

    Thanks!
