Ticket #356 (new enhancement)

Multi-Domain option / configuration

Description

Please enable multi-domain configuration - that would quite simply rock!

I'm sure other organizations will find splitting up their blog networks amongst multiple domains beneficial. There are many topics that deserve their own domain to form a community around :-) From what I understand WPMU satisfies this need to keep shared domains under a single installation. I prefer Lyceum if this is achievable!

Should I hold off on duplicating my database and installation on multiple domains?

I do plan on pitching in on development - my hands are tied at the moment.

Would appreciate any instructions to share with my PHP partner to help fix this ticket. Can we also increase the build priority on this ticket?

sharooz-

maybe you can make a mod_rewrite rule to map

domain2.com

to

domain1.com/lyceum/domain2blog

perhaps? i've no idea if this is possible with mod_rewrite or not.

also take a look at:

Scenario:

1. user creates a blog under PrimaryLyceum?.com as xyz-blog.PrimaryLyceum?.com

2. user decides to move the blog to it’s own domain called xyz.com

3. The original xyz-blog.PrimaryLyceum?.com gets moved to the default blog for xyz.com (eg. xyz-blog.xyz.com)

4. Other visitors to xyz.com can also get their own blog2.xyz.com

5. blog2.xyz.com could also be read at blog2.xyz.PrimaryLyceum?.com

Would this be most effectively accomplished through a database update?

b2evolution solves this problem neatly by providing for "stub" index files. A stub is a small configuration file that invokes the rest of the b2 installation. It can be placed anywhere on the server - any directory, any domain, any subdomain. This gives admins total freedom to put blogs anywhere at all on the server and just worry about a single Lyceum install. I urge Lyceum devs to emulate the b2 model for this behavior.
