Each install depends on a single config.php for all the paths, it would have to be rewritten to handle multiple paths for each module, don't think any of the main core developers have time to atm...

Your request is 11 hours old - give devs some time. They have a lot to do

I would look at it, but quite honestly I'm swamped.....
Unless you're willing to pay commercial rates, then I could potentially work on it in prime time.

hello calguy1000
In first place I want to be thankful for reply,
in second I informed that I paid for the work (in the forum informed that it was commercial area), but will have that to inform the costs obviously to me
For all dev:
It wanted to leave well clearly that I am not to ask for gratuitous help I am simply to contract somebody that is interested in developing this application and as in all the commercial contacts have adjustments to talk in money terms.
I LOVE CMSMS

Nuno,
You state that you want to have multisites platform. Could you give some details on how you think this should work.
So what would an administrator notice/have to do?
What effect does it have on a user?
Do all sites have the same modules installed/used?
Maybe this will help to give developers an idea where to start.

I thanks for your reply
The only shared modules are of the installation, want in each new site (new directory in webserver - newdomain.com ) to only place the personalized modulos, temp, uploads and the new database, that is I want to use one api for all the sites. I want equal to the DRUPAL.
in admin of each site alone they visualize the content and the modules of this exactly site nothing can be seen enters the sites clearly.
If price will be cheap and to be perfect I shared this function with the CMSMS community
N.C.

Sorry Nuno,
I can't help you

based upon what you wrote (thanks however for sharing more detail).
Appearantly you need someone with at least some knowledge of the other CMS system you mentioned and CMS Made Simple. Next to this both front end and back end knowledge of how to implement the multi site thing. It would not hit me as strange if programming is involved.
Hope you can find someone.

This would be far beyond a single addon module, it would be a fork of the entire CMS project itself. It would be a considerable effort to do properly and the end result would be a whole new CMS system that would probably not be compatible with the original CMS Made Simple. At first guess, I wouldn't even think about doing this with less than 1 month (120 hours) of budget approved. Therefore, NOT cheap, by a long shot.
This question has come up from time to time in the development lists, and we've played with the idea. However, the development team has decided that 'multisite capabilities' like this is 'out of scope' for CMS Made simple, (it would probably take the simple out).
We will probably do something whereby multiple domains can point at the same cmsmadesimple installation, and you could trick it into using a different home page for each domain, but that would be as far as we would go. You would still share the same user list, the same group list, the same module list, the list goes on. And even this tweak is low on the priority list.

Hii Galguy1000
Re: We will probably do something whereby multiple domains can point at the same cmsmadesimple installation, and you could trick it into using a different home page for each domain, but that would be as far as we would go.
I have already done this with the standard install of CMSMS and using mod rewrite just to redirect a second domain to a different homepage and with its own navigation system thought there is an issue with the News module.

@Applejack,
How did you do that?

To create multi sites with different domain names with a single install of CMSMS
Site 1 - Show in menu set to no
Home - as child of Site 1, Show in menu set to yes
About Us - as child of Site 1, Show in menu set to yes
etc etc
In the template have as the menu manger {menu template='site1_menu' start_page="site1"}
Site 2 - Show in menu set to no
Home - as child of Site 2, Show in menu set to yes
About Us - as child of Site 2, Show in menu set to yes
etc etc
In the template have as the menu manger {menu template='site2_menu' start_page="site2"}
.htaccess file
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^
www.seconddomainname.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/site2/home-site-2/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /site2/home-site-2/$1
home-site-2 is of course whatever is the page alias for the home page of the second site.
In the template for each site just beneath the title tag have
{metadata showbase="false"}
In the menu manager you will have to strip out the domains name absolute path. i.e. href="{$node->url|replace:'
http://www.domainnam.com/':''}
I have not tried setting up the site search so that it will only search according to which domain which would of course you would have to if you wnat to use that function.
