Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: Is Multi-Site the right way to go?After some discussion, we decided to create a new installation of WP on a new sub-domain and create a forward. Thanks Jackie, I have recorded your procedures for future use in case it comes up again.
Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: Is Multi-Site the right way to go?Jackie,
Thanks for the reply. Just to recap your method:
1. Install WordPress in a separate folder, i.e., mydomain.com/wordpress, design it the way I want, import the content from the other site, including uploads, etc.
2. Change your site urls in the General settings of your dashboard such that your WordPress address is yoursite.com/wordpress, but the site address is simply yoursite.com.
3. Change the last line of your index.php in the root to read:
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php' );4. Change your root .htaccess file to read:
RewriteBase /wordpress
(you’ve just made that site in the WordPress folder into your .com site.)I hope I understand this correctly. I’m going to look into a parallel install as you suggest. Thanks again!
I figured it out. Using the wrong placeholder. Should have used #_EVENTTAGS. It is now working.
