Yes. This plugin does indeed make duplicate posts in each blog. This allows you to edit the duplicated posts individually, if needed. Might not be the right solution if you’re wanting to simply keep “pointers” to a single master post.
Just some more questions: I am glad you and the other guy finally came up with this:
1. Categories: Does this work where it will use the category, no matter the placement, in another blog? For example, I post to the master post under the parent category “cats”, but other blogs use the category as a child under “pets”.
Does this still get placed in the “cats” section, or will another post be created? Currently I am organizing all the blogs the same, but wanted to know the effects.
2. Images/Attachments: Does this re-duplicate images and attachments. Or does it keeps the same location as in the editor?
3. Duplicate: Is it possible to modify the code where sub-blogs automatically get a canonical tag/ or a no follow tag?
4. Does this stress out the server if there were to be a post to over 50+ blogs? It won’t be used much, but wondering if there would be a lot of queries done while its being used.
Hey thanks a lot for this plugin. Really appreciate the work, and will donate toward its cause soon.
**Does this still get placed in the “cats” section, or will another post be created? **
I mean will another category be created as a parent ( ie: another cats category ).
