Can Txp 4.4.1 or Txp 5 update multiple sites?
writer1 writes weblog1. When a new article is written, writer1 wants to check one or more or three checkboxes so that the article gets posted to weblog1, a link gets passed to website2 for the sidebar and an update link gets passed to writer1’s facebook page.
Is anything similar to this available now in Txp 4.4.1 and/or is anything similar anticipated for Txp 5?
long time no see, gang and thanks!

Assuming that writer 1 is writing his new article in weblog1, a site powered by Textpattern.
- It will appear in weblog1 by default. I guess it could be rendered invisible but nevertheless present on weblog1 by assigning it to a category set aside for that purpose.
- The link on website 2 can be achieved with an RSS feed. You can, for instance, create and customize that on weblog1 using aks_header. You can fetch the feed at website2 using aks_rss. Again, assigning the article to a TXP category could include it in the feed.
- Writer1’s FB page can receive the link to the new article via the same feed. The ability to do that is already built into FB.

Thanks for this, Joe, and thanks for understanding my question(s). This is precisely the kind of answer I was hoping for.

Yes, via RSS export & import (asv_tumblelog creates aricles from feed)
Yes, you can use a blog editor software which sends via XML-RPC to 1-n XML-RPC receiving (Textpattern) blogs.
No, Textpattern is not a multi-domain CMS.
