PressBooks - eBook Publishing based on WordPress Multisite

[A Former User]

PressBooks is an amazing way to publish eBooks and display working books online in a webview.

It is based on WordPress multisite, but is quite hard to set up, especially in a Docker container, so I think it would be a great addition to Cloudron. I myself and my clients would be bowled over with excitement.

Check it out:

• PressBooks homepage: https://pressbooks.com/
• PressBooks installation procedures: https://docs.pressbooks.org/installation/
• PressBooks GitHub repo: https://github.com/pressbooks/pressbooks

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. ️
