I’ve finally finished moving all my sites to WordPress 3.0 using the new multiblog feature. This will let me manage all my sites from a single interface and skip installing software updates multiple times.

It was a lot of work made possible at all by liangzai’s post giving step-by-step instructions on how to use the same WordPress install with multiple domains.

Moving the content wasn’t that difficult with my other blogs but because I’d used so many different forms in so many places on this one I had to figure out how to integrate it all. The media library is doing fine so far to manage my images. I’ve taken my CSS templates and uploaded them to the library as zip files for download attached to new posts (sorry for the spam). My portfolio is taking advantage of another new feature, custom post types. This allows for linking to a particular piece as well as using larger images.

You may not see much difference up front but this change-over should make things much easier for me on the back-end.
