You need follow the guidelines to setup multi-site with subdomain. It requires permision to change your domain records too. Hi Everyone — Okay, firstly thank you for the good explanation and honest advice.
So i just made up my mind — to me its clear that stand alone sites are better — firstly i have a plan to create a learning site and forum site — both as separate interactions and yes i have picked up that multi-site creates MANY problems with user rights — So one question. All these very cool multi language and region websites — multi-site makes it quite easy to add a few plugins and whala, you have the selection menu and mutli-site works great — now, how will you setup something likewise but using multiple installations of WordPress?
Hi, I have a question from a different perspective. I own two domains:. I hope I explained well my issue :D Thanks for your reply. So, the best answer is by you. I have been conflicting about whether to go multisite or separate, so now conclusion corresponding to my task will be to go for separate installation..
Big ups for the article…. The WordPress Codex In short, a multisite allows you to run many sites from a single codebase. Benefits of WordPress Multisite over many standalone WordPress installations The advantage would appear to be a smaller footprint on the server for multiple websites, a single update to manage version upgrades of wordpress and plug-ins, maybe a single back up to manage multiple websites and perhaps a slightly faster way to manage existing sites and roll out new sites.
You install new or update all the themes, plugins and sites at once within one MU installation instead of updating each one separately. Multisite is awesome for a specific industry or focus, but usually not for totally separate business entities.
I would use something like InfiniteWP. User profiles are the same for all sites. And logged in users are logged in for all sites. Since the sites will share plugins and themes, the needs of the sites should overlap in functionality. Otherwise, the only plugins that will be visible to the site owner in Plugins are those that are network-activated. The site owner can access the plugin and configure it, but cannot delete or deactivate it.
It is hard for networked-site users to experiment with plugins. The sites in a Multisite network are all sharing one single database. This can tax system resources on high-traffic sites, affecting all sites in the Multisite network.

My current site has 2 WordPress installations on the same domain not multisite, just 2 different installations, one in the root and another in a sub-folder. Is it possible to replicate this structure in a wpengine personal plan? Or do I have to enable multisite and do this?
I noticed that with the personal plan there is no way to add a new database. What happens if I share the same database between the WordPress installations different table prefix and move the entire sub-folder with the 2nd WordPress installation to wpengine?
Would that work? We don't quite support it that way. You can have two installs which you can access under one account, but not in the same shared filesystem. Typically you'd need to be at the Professional plan to support more than one installation, however please contact our support team email, phone, or live chat and tell them what you need and how much traffic the two sites get, and they might be able to help out.
You should not use Multisite in any event -- that's not the same thing as having two installs. This is due to how WordPress works and isn't specific to hosting with us.
Correct, we do not support more than one database per installation , but again we do support what you need, and with separate databases. Tech support can help you through that. Please feel free to use our tech support for further answers! Of course there's nothing wrong with posting here as well, but we are here to help you.
So your second site can only be accessed via a subfolder not via own domain or subdomain. Also you need take care of things like backup and maybe security of the second site yourself. While we all have had that dream of finding a passive recurring revenue stream, there is no such thing—at least not if you intend on sustaining your business. Everything you do will need a little hand-holding at some point.
This is because:. All in all, WordPress Multisite is a great choice if you have a single client with multiple websites that share many of the same resources. News networks, businesses with disparate departments, and franchises with locations that need their own sub-sites would do well on a Multisite network. But keep in mind what this single WordPress installation will do to your server.
Each new website adds a new set of databases and content. This is why you sometimes have to look outside of the WordPress ecosystem for help. Before I delve into the various solutions that help developers and agencies manage multiple WordPress installations, I want to first touch on the benefits of using one of these multi-site not to be confused with Multisite platforms :.
However, ManageWP, in its own right, is a very popular solution for managing multiple WordPress installations. If your WordPress business specializes in building and managing blog networks and e-commerce sites, this tool for managing multiple WordPress installations should catch your eye.
Not only does CMS Commander help you get a handle on typical WordPress maintenance tasks, but it also comes with blog and marketing integrations so developers can address additional needs for their clients. UpdraftCentral is a new and powerful dashboard for multiple WordPress sites. It lets you backup and update all your sites from one central location in the Cloud. No need to manually log into all your sites anymore to perform updates and the like!
Crammed full of features such as automated backup schedules and sophisticated one-click updates, UpdraftCentral is sure to boost to your productivity. If the price of your chosen tool for managing multiple WordPress installations is an important factor for you at the moment perhaps your WordPress business is just getting off the ground , Infinite WP is a good choice.
You can get a whole lot of maintenance done for free with Infinite WP. If and when you are ready to scale your business, upgrading to a premium plan to unlock all its features is easy. You might also know about BackupBuddy, a backup plugin made by the same people. Just to be clear: this is not a WordPress plugin for Multisite. All it takes is two free plugins from the repository to turn a single WordPress installation into a management dashboard for client websites.
For something a little more basic in terms of maintenance, and a little more robust in terms of actual client management, take a look at WP Remote.
