Multisite, Elements and Child Themes

I need multiple sites with the same theme. The theme needs heavy customisation with conditional functions.

At the moment I do this very well with a single site and Elements. However, if I use Elements with multisite I need to import all the Elements into each site!

The alternative is to use a heavily modified child theme so I can use just one for all sites.

What would you recommend?

Hi there,

I'm not sure if there's a workaround, as each site in multi-site is a unique site.

Are you basically wanting all of your sub-sites to share Elements?

Correct, therefore I have to load up each site.

You could create them on one site, and go to "Tools > Export". Then you can export the Elements.

Then just go to "Tools > Import" on each subsite and import them.

Should save quite a bit of time :)

But each time I updated elements of need to import into all the sites... Check out my feature request

I don't believe it's possible to alter content network-wide like that in multisite, unfortunately.
