This plugin is for site admins of WPMU sites. Just create a blog and select it as default blog. After that you can select particular elements (articles, pages, design, plugin settings, and so on) you want to copy to all new blogs you will to create. Very nice for mass blog creation as in communities. Bug report, please go here:

2. Login as Superadmin 4. Activate the plugin Site Wide through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
How it works: Just create a blog which you want to use as default blog and set up the whole blog. After setting up the default blog, go to the "Default Blog" plugin in the "Site Admin" panel and set up the "Default Blog". When done, you will be able to select the settings you'd like to have in every new blog. Just click on "Update Options" to save. Every time a blog is created and yout visit the dashboard of the new blog, the settings will be copied from the default blog to the new blog. Thats it! Have fun.
