In reply to: How to get post content from it's ID in multi site?Have you tried using WP_Query’s Orderby random parameter?

Also, it looks like you should add the_content() in your foreach loop to pull content along with the title.

In reply to: Site Broken, autorepair doesnt workWhen you add content to a site, that information is stored in the database. If you change themes, the content stays no matter the theme. It only changes the look and how it is displayed. Some things that would change are your widget areas and menus. You’ll need to make sure you know what goes in which widget area and where the menus were displayed. Each theme handles widgets/menus differently.
If you delete the site, yes those tables will be removed.
Changing themes should not remove any database tables. However, your new theme may not have all of the same features.
Try activating a different theme on that same site. Then, if you don’t like it, you can switch back by activating the older theme.
It might be good to set up a testing environment locally for you to try out your themes before making them live.

In reply to: Is it possible to feature posts from one site onto anothers?Check out Sitewide Tags or the switch_to_blog() function. You can use Sitewide Tags to pull all posts into the main site. The switch_to_blog() function would need to be coded into your theme.

In reply to: Site Broken, autorepair doesnt workWhen WordPress Multisite is enabled, there is no need to install WordPress multiple times. You can have as many sites as you want under one installation with one database. You can add a new site from the Network Admin – Sites – Add New menu.
If you want a different theme on one of the sites, once you upload/install a new theme in the wp-content/themes folder, the theme needs to be either Network Enabled (from Network Admin – Themes) or Enabled on one of the sites in your Network (from Network Admin – Sites – Edit Site – Themes). Then, you can activate it on the site you want. Otherwise it will be hidden.

In reply to: MultiSite – Same Content – Two DomainsIf I’m understanding you correctly, it sounds like you want to auto-copy the posts from one site to another.
I haven’t tried any of them, but check out these potential solutions:

In reply to: MultiSite – Same Content – Two DomainsDo you have two separate WordPress installations? One Standalone and one Multisite? Or, are they all in one Network?

In reply to: Site Broken, autorepair doesnt workCan you log into your server with something like phpMyAdmin and verify that the database is still there?

In reply to: Site Broken After Following Steps HereDid you try leaving the .htaccess file in the root directory and modifying it as shown in this link?
Also, are you using sub-directory or sub-domain install for Multisite? This will not work if you are trying for sub-domain.

In reply to: Subdomain NamingThis would only be possible if you owned mas.com. If you do own that domain, you can migrate to that domain instead with a few steps.
Do you own mas.com?

In reply to: How to Assign Add-on DomainHey DinoG,
When you installed Multisite, was it with sub-domains or sub-directories?
If you want to wait and build the site before transferring the domain name to Bluehost, I would add the new site in your Network and work on it there. The domain would temporarily be one of the following depending on your setup:
Sub-domain: sitename.domain.com
Sub-directory: domain.com/sitenameThen, once the site is ready to go live, you can use a Domain Mapping plugin to map the domain to the new site. So, when you go to sitename.domain.com, it would become newdomain.com.

In Bluehost, your domain needs to be Parked instead of Add-on. The Add-on domain would point to it’s own folder. You need it to point to the main directory in order for the Domain Mapping to work correctly. I can’t remember, but you may be able to specify where the Add-on domain points. If so, make it point to the root of your site.

I hope that helps!
