WordPress Multisite 3.x in /opt

(1/3) > >>

newburns:
I started WordPress MultiSite originally in /opt/ during my test. After the test, it proved to be a GREAT CMS, so I have made many websites that are now in production. Now I have the need to make sites for different domains, including my domain.

Is there any way to point apache to the /opt/wordpress directory as the main site? Right now it is accessible by http://domain.tld/wordpress  I need it accessible by http://domain.tld

I do have a full site in an iBay, will I be able to access those by aliases if I point apache to my WordPress directory, or would I have to migrate those to /opt/wordpress/? If I do, it's fine, just would like to know.

Moving Multisite install to an iBay is a bit of a challenge. As I think future goals, I don't believe I'll be doing sites in anything but WordPress; however, I must ask if the solution is reversible (Just in case I hard code another site).

For new domains, would I just Proxy Pass to the WordPress install? How would that work since it is in /opt/wordpress? Using .htaccess?

Thanks.

Stefano:
yes.. you need custom fragments for httpd.conf

I'm quite sure you'll find some examples here in the forums

It's best for me to move multi site to my web ibay. In order to change from /wordpress to domain.com I would still have to go through the procedure to migrate a multi site install. The issue is all the references in mysql still reference /wordpress
Thanks anyway.
Now I need to find what query strings need to be used on the database to change those reference links.

One I install in an ibay, I am under the impression that all new domains would be added with proxy pass to the wordpress install in the ibay?

You may want to look at what fws smeserver-webapps-common might be able to do.

There is a contrib for that:
