TIA

Hello Kjell,
if you're looking for a CMS to manage the contents of your websites, webEdition might be what you're looking for. Though, it won't help you to manage multiple domains or anything like Confixx, it's a pure CMS.
To be honest, webEdition might not be the first choice for you. There is no english documentation for webEdition6.

Daniel

No, I don't want to manage multiple domains like Confixx, but it seems like a waste of drive space to have multiple installations of webEdition just because I happen to have a couple of differrent site in the same computer.deemes;50859 hat geschrieben:if you're looking for a CMS to manage the contents of your websites, webEdition might be what you're looking for.

Sorry, my mistake, I didn't get you in the first place.
The only chance I can think of is to work with mod_rewrite to redirect your multiple domains into subdirectorys of your WE-installation. Though, no guarantee, never tried this.
Allways keep in mind there has to be the webEdition folder inside the DOCUMENT_ROOT of the domain. Maybe you could work with symlinks (ln -s) as well.
webEdition itself isn't made for multiple sites. But that's ok I think. It keeps you from mixing Document-Types, Templates, Categories, Content...

That might work, installing webEdition in the root directory and then having VirtualHosts as subdir's... I'll give it a trydeemes;50914 hat geschrieben:Sorry, my mistake, I didn't get you in the first place.

Don't know, I haven't had time to give it a serious try.
There's a couple of isues I have to try...
- does it work with multiple users only accessing their own dirs
- can I have different themes in different dirs
- how do you have different templates for different dirs
There's been more urgent things to attend to re the new server

Hi Kjell,
Yes it is possible. We did a multi-site setup for a client of us a few months ago. The trick is to separate the information for the domains in different file and navigation directories.
We used the following rewrite rules (mod_rewrite) to detect the domains and redirect the request into the corresponding directory:
The downside with this solution is, that you'll get URLs of the following form:
* http://www.domain1.com/domain1/
* http://www.domain2.com/domain2/
Since the basic template was the same on all websites, we used a settings template where we defined the required variables (e.g. favIconID, logoID, ...) for each domain using the following switch:
We did play around with access restrictions for editors since all domains are handled by the same people.
HTH,
Sascha

Re: Multiple sites
hi yaem,
i just did a quick test with one of our hosts and had no problems to access webEdition on a secondary domain.
what happens, when you try to access webEdition from a secondary domain?
best regards,
sascha
