    Hi,

    I am having 12 websites.

    Its actually 12 WP blogs. In one blog i have installed all plugins - now i want to copy the plugins directory of this wp blog to my rest of my blogs . For that i cannot download it from my computer - its a tedious task - i wanna know whether its possible to do from that server to all others by any scripts or any such ways?

    The fastest way I can think of is use FTP or zip files, but it would still be really long.

    If you have SSH access (if you have hosted your site on Linux) then you can do it easily. Just create zip file of your plugin directory and move it to your root folder. Then download it using wget command:

    wget http://yourwebsite.com/filename.zip

    You will need to just run this command via SSH for all domains. Then after unzip it and move plugin folder to wp-content folder.
