Is the Domain module (http://drupal.org/project/domain) worth using or should I manually create my multi sites?


Depends

The Domain module suite is for advanced Drupal users. People either love it or hate it, depending on their use-case.

You should only use it -- IMO -- if you need to share content among one or more sites in a family of publications.

See the example sites on the module description page.

I have many sites that need to share users/login, I seem to have two options.
1- manually set the shared tables
2- Use Domain Access module.


Users but not content?

If you are only sharing users -- and not sharing content across the sites -- then normal multisite is probably the best route.

Similar task and similar problem!

I'm having a similar problem...
I have a master site (community), then many subsites with many (hundreds) ubercart shops, the idea is to share the user base so that any user from the main site can shop on the subsite without having to register again... the problem is:

I need a separate administrators for each shop/subsite!

  • I'm thinking about not sharing the userbase but manualy sincronize only users with ID > 1 .

  • Another approach would be to have some kind of access rules permitting a particular user to administer one subsite only.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Diego

you can set different permissions for each site as long as you don't share the permissions table.
