I have a multisite setup with a main and 5 subsites. I set up the primary nav on
the main and used this plugin to copy it to all of the subsites. All but one. The
subsite running the Neve theme just won’t copy the menu over. Other than that, it
is awesome and has saved me a ton of time already! I just need to set up about10
more subsites and copy the menu to all of those, as well!

Breaks admin bar on any site this plugin is active on. The admin bar will act like
you are on the site that this plugin is getting the shared menus from. I’ll change
my rating if this bug is fixed.

I have a multisite installation with one master site and one child. Needed the child
to look and feel exactly like the parent site, and I didn’t want to worry about 
updating the menu twice. This worked for me. I had to create an empty menu on the
child site and assign it to the appropriate location, and then it worked.
