This modification is in the archives.
This mod will allow you to combine multiple sites that you own and master, into the one set of files and database - easier to maintain, to update, to administer, and to master.
Even though this page is fairly long - there is a lot of info to set it up, but it's bloody easy to install, and easy to work with once installed. What you can do: - auto detect which site they have come to, and setup the right usergroup and style. - run different styles on different sites. - allow/deny different usergroups to different forums and version of site - multiple forums with permissions set to individual sites - multiple calendars with permissions set to individual sites What you can't do: - allow users to choose their own style (**coming soon**) - can't run some plugins on some domains, and not on the others - all plugins must/will be active across the whole board. - can't work if you have subdomains (at this point) - i dunno, it may - i just have 1 line which auto places 'www' on your domain. - it is lacking an upgrade system to bring two forums together. I built this from the start - meaning my testing server was my original site, then i started a second test site, and started adding people to it - THERE IS NO MERGE SCRIPT *YET*. although, you might be able to use the vB to merge - CAN SOMEONE PLEASE VERIFIY / COMMENT ON THIS. (i.e. if you have 3000users/25,000posts in your main, and you want to bring 5000users/45,000posts from your 2nd site to combine them, we don't have anything on offer to reset the ID numbers, etc. possible the imPEX thinggy will resort all of that for you.) ---------- Important - My Current Setup: i'm running vb 3.5 with vBa's CMPS. i have it set up: /public_html/index.php (cmps index) /public_html/domains.php (this current mod) /public_html/forum/ (all the forums' files) USERGROUPS With the usergroups - you are going to have to add the short_http into the start of the usergroup name - so please take this into account (as the system searches the short_http to grab the usergroup for the person viewing, to put them into that usergroup). i set it up to not use the original 'registered users', but rather, each site has it's own 'registered users' usergroup. The admin, super mod, banner member - i.e anything you want/think can work across ALL the sites can stay as one, the rest of the sites should have their own usergroups:
--------- Example: none at this point. hacks and addons: - adding events to multple calendars at once (coming soon) - calendar custom fields working on multiple calendars ------------------------ [Temp area - installation steps] cpanel -> add parked domains mysql database change domains.php global.php register.php class_dm_user.php functions.php create styles add plugin - domains.php add plugin - force style ------------------- FIRSTLY, backup YOUR database!!! [Step 1 - Park your Domains ] go into your cPanel or Plesk, or your hosting control system, and park your domains to your account - this will make all your domains, myFirstDomain.com and mySecondDomain.com all display the front page of your first initial site. [Step 2 - mySQL Changes ] none that i can remember / find at this point. [Step 3 - /public_html/domains.php ] create this file and insert the following:
[Step 4 - global.php] find [line 115]
below this, add
[Step 5 - register.php] find [line 265]

[Step 8 - styles] either create child styles or import your styles you'll figure out the best way to set them up ![]() [step 9 - add plugins] adminCP -> plugins -> add new plugin product - vbulletin hook location - global_start title - Domains or anything you want plugin php code -

I'm assuming he means we can run multiple instances of vb on a machine and have all those forums share the same database.

a couple of people have been wanting this, so it will go up over the next few days - please subscribe or bookmark this thread - believe me - it will be worth your time!
a large portion of you are running 2-3 vbulletin sites, and believe me, it's easier to take care of them when they are all under the one server -> hosting account -> files & database ![]() No members have liked this post.

No, it does not create more sites under one license, but if you have multiple licenses with diffrent sites on parts of server, it lets you manage them all in 1.

a great hack...just having a bit of trouble installing
I think i did everything could it be that my first domain is not hte main domain on cpanel, so I had to use a redirect instead? No members have liked this post.
