Multipul Mini CMS MS

Post by godsdead »

Hey there, i am totally new to CMS MS, but before i get started, i have a pretty strong project i am considering using CMS ms for, i wondered if it is possible first up, and secondly if anyone else has already done this?
I want to be able to create mini sites from one main CMS MS instillation, so it would look like this:

Main Base of CMS MS - Just Admins e.g. somesite.com
- Mini Site #1 e.g. somesite.com/newuser
                  - Admin that site, Mini admin panel (or main admin CP with basic features, just for their "mini site")
                        - Users of that site that can interact with mini site
- Mini Site #2 e.g. somesite.com/newuser2
                  - Admin that site, Mini admin panel (or main admin CP with basic features, just for their "mini site")
                        - Users of that site that can interact with mini site

It's possible, but it may not be as clean as you would like.

To do it you can create "Parent" pages (named newuser) for each mini-site and the children of that page would be placed under that parent.

Then you can setup the "admin" account for each "site" and you can limit the access of that user to just that "Parent" page and it's children

As far as users interacting with that mini site... you will have to be a little more detailed, but if I am understanding you correctly you can use FrontEndUsers and CustomContent modules to limit that access as well.
If all else fails, use a bigger hammer.
