PressBooks - eBook Publishing based on WordPress Multisite

Nice.
I assume this wont be possible until domain aliases are sorted though, as that is needed in order to be able to make WordPress Multisite work.

@jdaviescoates I am sure you are correct: I hadn’t seen that great thread. Perhaps @Lonk can take a look at PressBooks too when he does the work on WP multisite?
PressBooks is perhaps my favourite App as a writer so to see there is already work being done on WP mutisite is encouraging. Thanks!

@wexlerj Yeah, @girish and I are working on domain aliases first and foremost as that's step #1 in getting multisite to work properly. That's what's minimally needed to make multisite work on Cloudron.
From there, I plan on making plenty of Quality of Life changes focused solely on Wordpress Multisite. But when @girish and I work out and release the Domain Alias feature, I'll ping ya to let you know you can start using this plugin.

Sorry I closed down my Cloudron accounts for a bit. I am happily back and am so excited to have multisite working that I got it running and am experimenting a bit as I haven't touched it in years.
I will then proceed to see if I can get PressBooks working.

@jonathanwexler I went through all the steps in https://docs.pressbooks.org/installation/ and now I cannot login to the multisite. I will try and troubleshoot it but would be cool if someone else might try this too eventually.

@jonathanwexler Okay it works! https://fediverseguide.books.jonathanwexler.ca/ I am not sure why I had a problem logging in originally I really didn't change anything just followed instructions.
Awesome, PressBooks in Cloudron!

@jonathanwexler Thanks for testing!
I noticed that https://docs.pressbooks.org/installation/ has some requirements like poppler-utils. I think they are not part of the WP package. Let me know if some of those are required and I can add them to the package.
On a side note, looking forward to your book. I think there is a real lack of introductory guides on fediverse (history, motivation etc).

@girish I'll have to look into the technical wide of your question. So far PressBooks is working great with the WordPress multisite functionality in the developer app. I really haven't tried the publishing formats yet, that is a next step.
Thanks! -

@girish I am back - I will try to get PressBooks working again but just getting my bearing again with Cloudron considering the global turmoil. Thanks.

@girish Can you please confirm if cloudron has support for Ghostscript and Imagemagick? Thank you!

Does anyone know if I could migrate a currently functioning Pressbooks install (from a LAMP setup) to a Multisite WP install on cloudron, using something like All-in-One WP Migration? I've used AiOWPM for awhile and it has always worked well, but I've never tried it on a Multisite, nor something like Cloudron.

@scooke from memory I don't think the free version of All in One supports multisite, but that the premium paid for version does (not that I've ever used it).
You could also just copy over database and files though, should work.
Or sometimes what I've done is just copy over all the plugin and theme files and then use the WordPress export/ import to do the content.
