Copy folder to multiple (similar) locations simultaneously
I have around 90 websites I need a plugin installed on (wordpress) and I was wondering if there's a way to copy the plugin folder to all of them in a single run (i.e., simultaneously / in parallel).
These are all on the same cPanel so same path, except for the domain name.
The paths look like this:
/home/user/site1/public_html/wp-content/plugins//home/user/site2/public_html/wp-content/plugins/
and so on.
I obviously tried the following, but it takes a lot of time :)
scp -r /path/to/local/dir /home/user/site1/public_html/wp-content/plugins/
centos ssh file-copy cpanel

You can use for loop which will do the job!
for i in {1..90}
do
# your-unix-command-here
# scp -r /path/to/local/dir /home/user/site$i/public_html/wp-content/plugins/
echo $i
done

If all destination folders are /wp-content/plugins/, then you could iterate using find command, for example like this (assuming you are using bash and directory names have no 'space'):
for dir in $(find /home/user -name wp-content); do
[ -d ${dir}/plugins ] && scp -r /path/to/local/dir ${dir}/plugins/
done
