Anyone?

I answer to myself as I found it out already: admin_url() function worked for me. F.e link to write new blog entry works with admin_url('post-new.php')

Hi Andrea and many thanks to your reply,

this really solves one of the problems (I guess I just deactivate the widgets I don’t want to be in there and write the important widgets permanently into the sidebar.php)

There is still this first issue remaining. Unfortunately I’m not sure if you got the problem right. I don’t want to change widgets for all subsites at once 🙂 The thing is that they are somehow hidden in the beginning when a new site is been created, eventhough there are several widgets as default in the Primary Widget Area. But if I add for example the calendar widget into the primary widgets and then visit my sub blog, all the default widgets and the calendar appears. So what I’d like to know, is there a way to get those default widgets appear without adding and removing one widget everytime I create a subsite? 🙂

Ah I solved the problem myself. I had to go by the wp_create_user function and use wp_insert_user for everything, this is the final working code if someone is interested:

function _create_user($username) {
			$password = $this->_get_password();
			$email_domain = $this->get_option('http_authentication_auto_create_email_domain');
			$useCompanyEmail = $this->get_option('http_authentication_auto_use_company_email');

			require_once(WPINC . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'registration.php');
			if($useCompanyEmail){
				$user_email = $_SERVER['HTTP_EMAIL'];
			}else{
				$user_email = $username . ($email_domain ? '@' . $email_domain : '');
			}

			global $wpdb;

			$user_login = $wpdb->escape( $username );
			$user_pass = $password;
			$first_name = $_SERVER['HTTP_FIRSTNAME'];
			$last_name = $_SERVER['HTTP_LASTNAME'];			

			$userdata = compact('user_login', 'user_email', 'user_pass', 'first_name', 'last_name');
			wp_insert_user($userdata);
		}

Afterall it’s nothing but a modified version of wp_create_user

I got it working!

Somehow this auth_redirect didn’t work for me (it got stuck on the login page and didn’t get through automatically) but I found also a very handy function to do the job:
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ... }

The header.php was a very good idea, I put it there and now everything works smoothly. The users will get logged in automatically once they come to the frontpage 🙂
