multisite

Hello, I'm a newbie in the world of web-design, and 3 month ago I had an idea of a site which i now what to put it in practice. The great idea:

1. 4 domains
   • domain1.tld
   • domain2.tld
   • domain3.tld
   • domain4.tld
2. 6 subdomains, the same 6 for each of the domains
   • subdomain1.domainX.tld
   • subdomain2.domainX.tld
   • subdomain3.domainX.tld
   • subdomain4.domainX.tld
   • subdomain5.domainX.tld
   • subdomain6.domainX.tld

As posted as an issue in location (http://drupal.org/node/610620)

The way location_instance is a multi-type table, storing both uids and nids, means it's (nearly) impossible to share this table between 2 sites...

A typical multi-site shared db does something along the lines of this:

DB A - Only Nodes in Site A , Shared Users
DB B - Only Nodes in Site B, Shared Users
DB User - shared with both A & B, contains user tables, sessions, and other tables that are user related, so both sites can access non-node based info.

Hello,

I am looking for ideas to organize SCM and development workflow for distributed teams with aegir/multisite environment.

Here is some initial thought:

• Each developer will have multisite or even aegir environment if applicable;
• Staging/production server will have aegir;
• Every custom website will have it's own scm(we using git), for custom theme at least and custom modules at most;

Now developers have to checkout sites into their local environment and push it back when they done.

Hi there,

Is there a simple way to split off a subsite from a multisite installation? I'd like to hand off hosting of a site I created for a friend, but I'm having some issues with peeling it off my D6 multisite.

I figured I could just dump the database, copy the files and hand it over, but there seems to be problems with paths. (Doesn't help that the live URL has to point to my multisite until the standalone is ready.)

I've found a few sorta similar issues on the boards, but haven't been able to find a definitive answer (or at least one I can get to work.)

Thanks,
Kevin

UPDATE Network Manager has been released for 5 6 and 7.
I'm releasing a new module soon and wanted to get some feedback on a screencast that I did. It's a project called the Network Manager (http://drupal.org/project/network_manager) and it helps you manage / maintain your sites all from within one site (given permissions set correctly for mysql user).

Here are links to the screencast (Jing forces it to be in 5 minute segments) --

Hello drupal buddies, i have a simple question that i couldn't find the answer (maybe cause i cannot find the right keywords for search). I'm trying my first multisite installation of drupal, i created a folder tmp.mysite for my site in drupal_root/sites, and the installation completed without erros. Now on localhost i can access both the root site (with a url like http://localhost:port/drupal_root )

Greetings,

I'm developing locally (with my /etc/hosts tweaked to point 3 domains at localhost), which are configured using the Domain module to all use the same code and database (as opposed to a true multi-site).

I'm a Drupal noob and have fumbled my way through a multi-site installation. All in all, it went pretty well with no major problems that I could not find a solution to - thanks in no small part to a lot of videos and other tutorials out there. Of course, I'm not sure that what I did was exactly correct, but it seems to work. I would appreciate people more knowledgeable than I reviewing the following and giving me their opinions. Also, there is a small problem mentioned at the end that I would like to be able to fix. First, though, allow me to apologize for any typos.

Hi all

I'm trying to set up my first multisite, but I'm uncertain how to solve some problems:

I want an external site (on foobar.com) with news, pages etc. It should only be editable by admins.
I want an internal site (on internal.foobar.com) with a forum, event calendar etc, and access control. Most of the content here will be created by normal users.

I also want the external site to fetch events accepted by its admins from the internal site, and the internal site to fetch news from the external page and use them as forum threads.
