My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

I want to set up blog1.example.com blog2.example.com, .../ blog6.example.com and be able to write to them all from example.com/admin.php. If possible I would also like a non-blog-related index.php at root. Basically a custom page to point to each of the 6 blog locations.

Am I living in a dream world?

hi privatjokr

I think that's possible.

Try to go to admin >
Blog Settings > URLs > Blog base URL:

that's for each blog

I have each blog pointed to the subdomain, but to no avail.

I have tried moving the blog1.php file to the subdirectory and calling it as named and renaming it to index.php and calling it there. That hasn't worked either.

edit: Do I need a full install of b2evo in each subdir and if yes, do I point each to the same basic_config file?

This seems like it would be a pain at upgrade time, but I'm willing to do it for the look and feel that I want on my site.

Create your subdomains in your cpanel.
Point each blog to a subdomain.
Move your blog1.php to subdomain1 and change

require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/conf/_config.php';


to

require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/../conf/_config.php';


Rename blog1.php to index.php.
Repeat for each blogX.php you have.
Celebrate.

i dont think what you did up there is the right way to do it...I personally use subdomains for each blog.Just
-rename blog1.php etc as you wish (i.e. animals.php)
-set it to subdomain OR absolute Url and make it http://domain.com/animals.php under blog url settings.
- create the subdomain animals.domain.com and point it to the [u]animals.php file[/u] and NOT the directory.

Do your posts show as animals.domain.com/2010/4/21/tilgicom-rocks or domain.com/animals.php/2010/4/21/tilgicom-rocks?

Mine work the first way, which is the way I wanted. I feel like your way would lose that. You have access via subdomain, but each blog doesn't actually reside there if you keep the animals.php in your root directory, right?

the latter of course.each blog does not reside anywhere, every blog is a part of the root instance.putting blog2 in blog2 directory does not mean anything.

So both work and seemingly in the same fashion. Or so it seems.
