[solved] What are the Logistics of a cms with multiple domains and host?

Post by hc »

Oh boy.  Just as I finished creating my Post and was ready to post it - my session timed out and I lost every bit of the Post.  Well, let me try again.

This is a general installation question not particular to a supported platform, but about the general "logistics" of placement of a cms.

Say I have 30 clients, each with their own domain.  I design 1 - 10 pages for each ones site and these domains are probably hosted by different host.  I need to control the original code (done in static XHTML and CSS), but I want to make it so each 'authorized' client/user can make "content only" changes to the pages for their individual site (They have to come to me for design changes.)

Is this possible?  Would I install ONE copy of CMSMS on my development computer and somehow each client/user could login to it and make content changes?  Or would I have to install copies of CMSMS on every host server where the individual domains are? That would be an even bigger task for me to maintain, wouldn't it?

I have read the Handbook all the way through and a lot of other materials, and maybe I am thick headed, but understanding the logistics of how to do this for multiple domains escapes me.  Would a domains site/pages be a "Group" on ONE installation of the CMSMS?

Help please. Thanks,
hc

"multisite" or "multidomain" capability was removed from the cmsms 2.0 roadmap; so it will be, as it is now: one site or domain == one installation of cmsms

Thanks for that reply Kermit.

You have cleared that up. Guess I will have to try and figure something else out.
