I have a sub-domain (wildcard) multisite installation, with two sites, I will call them Site A and Site B.

Site A and Site B both share the same theme, that has custom posts types declared in functions.php. On Site A the custom post types work just fine.

On Site B, I can see the CPTs in the UI, and if I try to add a new post saved drafts or posts go to the Posts section, instead of the CPT. It is very strange.

I have tried adding the CPT as different users (all of which are SuperAdmins), checked my permalink settings, and checked the .htaccess code to verify it matches the recommended code: http://perishablepress.com/press/2010/07/07/htaccess-code-for-wordpress-multisite/

Any ideas, or suggestions?

Just an update, I wasn't able to find the solution to this and since Site B didn't have any data yet I just removed it and recreated it in the multisite admin and now everything is working correctly. – Rachel Baker Nov 9 '11 at 17:54

This seems a good application for http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/threewp-broadcast/

I've used it a little, and it's a bit quirky, but when I got it stabilized in just a couple steps I was able to make a change in one site and that content appeared when the child site/page was next refreshed.

The oddity was that (I don't remember exactly; it was something like this) I had to go back to the parent site and get rid of the "extra" instance of the page, the one that did not display the link to the child site.
