I created a multisite and my question is as followed:
Im trying to display a default static page for each new site.
So when they create a new site, they automatically get a default page I made. This is the only page they need and have controle over. This page has only widgetized area’s in it so that the site-admin can add content by adding widgets into the widget area’s. They dont have access to create a post or page themselves.
By adding a piece of code into wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php the page will be automatically made by WP whenever a new site is made. However, the page isnt connected to the template with the html/php code in it to display the widgets they add. Normally in WP you can create a page and on the right side you can select a template.
Is it clear this far? (even I get confused lol)
So what Im asking is.. is there a way to create a static frontpage for all newly created sites (like test.example.com and test2.example.com) with a template connected to it?
Thanks in advance!!!
It would make my day!

I would recommend waiting until WordPress 3.4 is released. Among other features, it is slated to include the ability to allow Themes to define/declare a static front page. I believe this functionality should suit your needs.
(Note: as of today, WordPress 3.4 just hit Beta 1, and is scheduled for final release in May.)
