Auto create pages on WordPress multi site register

by

I’m creating a multi site and would like to have:

  1. A few pages that are automatically created with the new site (at the moment only the default home and sample page are created with a new site, anyone know how that is being done?)

  2. Even better but maby separate, a way to create pages in a form (on the register form or otherwise)

so that means optimally i want 4 pages (with content) made when a site is registered, and then a form asking them for the titles of 2 more pages that get created.

answers or ideas for either much appreciated!

Not sure about multisite, however it usually works similarly to single site, so the following info may be useful:

There is a pluggable function (ie you write your own which will run instead of wp’s function)

“wp_install_defaults”

Put your function in a ‘dropin’ plugin for install.php

and wp will use your function to create defaults instead of the wp defaults.

More info see:
