Under Global Settings in your blog, you choose "Spam, Ping and Cross-posting". There you should see a checkbox to enable crossposting for that blog. After checking that you should see a button "Setup New Blog" which will give you a dialog to set the MetaBlog settings for another blog to crosspost to.

Then when you write a post that you want to cross-post, click the "Advanced Options" check box on the upper right of the post editor and then choose the "Advanced Options" tab, and make sure "Enable Cross-posting" is checked before you publish.

Hey! Crossposting is now working!

But I noticed that the posts are ONLY PUBLISHED if you create a new post! I mean: If you wrote a post and you want it to be cross-posted, it is not until you delete and make a new one with the contents.

I thought it should be something like a synchronization, but it appears that it only works when writing the post for the first time and if you remove a post, the cross-posted message remains published.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a solution to improve crossposting and make it like a sync?

Thank you for your quick answer!
