Just bought Mars Edit to help in management of a multi-blog community news network. Most of the functionality works great and it has already made life much easier. I'm having one problem I can't seem to figure out. It might be something I'm doing wrong or an issue with the new version.

We use custom fields on each blog to handle a thumbnail for every post and a article image for featured posts. The fields are consistently named across all blogs and configured for each blog in Mars Edit.

The problem I'm having is that on occasion, we want to publish the same post across more than one blog. I can set up the original post and publish it to the first blog just fine. To copy it to another blog I open it off the source blog in Mars Edit, and select the other blog from the "Blog" dropdown on the edit window. Everything looks fine, and the custom field values show on the edit window, but once I select "send to blog" and view the post on the destination blog, those values aren't being saved. I have to open the post in Mars Edit from the destination blog, and copy and paste the values in and update the post.

Am I going about this wrong? Is there another way to copy posts between blogs and have the custom field values preserved? Or is this a bug in the current release of Mars Edit?

Thanks! -Michael
