* __easy maintenance__ - one install, one upgrade, combined pages (repeat content on all multisites), combine newsletters/shoutbox/search ... and so on
|
* __visually effective__ - different sections of your site can sport a different theme (plus you can still use different themes for each package of each multisite)
|
* __restrict access to content on a site by site basis__ so that only a subset of the content is seen on any given site (available in Bitweaver 2)
|
+* __((AuthenticationPluginMultisites|Auth:Multisites)) restricts user logon to sub-sites__ This prevents a user from accessing material intended for limited access (available in Bitweaver 2) |
|
!! Notes
|
* Multisites is not intended for setting up entirely independend sites with different databases. All URLs access the same database.
|
* In all versions below Bitweaver 2 you can not restrict access to content on a site by site basis. |
+* Permission roles will need to be reconfigured if it is required to also restrict admin users to their own sites. Currently admin rights override all lower level restrictions, so a site admin role needs to be created in order to allow individual site administration. |

+!! Setting up |
+An outline guide to setting up multisites is provided at ((Configuring multisites)). This has been written from the basis of setting on a Linux web server, but gives pointers for other installations. |
