WordPress multisite

[girish]

The WordPress developer edition app now supports multisite installations.

To enable WordPress multisite, start with a fresh installation. There are two way to convert a fresh installation to multisite - using the WP CLI tool or using the WordPress Network Setup Tool. Short instructions to use the CLI tool:

• Open a Web Terminal. To use subdomains in multisite mode:

# /app/pkg/wp-convert-multisite --subdomains

• Go to the Location view of the Cloudron dashboard and configure a Wildcard alias.

• Add wildcard domain as alias:
  

That's it ! See https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/wordpress-developer/#multisite for information.

It totally works. Check out the PressBooks stock homepage: https://books.jonathanwexler.ca/

I encourage others to try it out.

I still have to install all the capabilities for ePub Mobi PDF output etc, but I feel this is an incredible solution for authors to publish their ebooks.

Thanks Cloudron, you guys rock!

Just an FYI I actually couldn't get the WP CLI method to work so I used the Network Setup which I have used in the past anyway.

@jonathanwexler Do you remember what failed / did not work?

@girish Yes. Running the multisite script for WP Cli did not do anything for me. I never used WP Cli before so wasn't sure if it was properly installed or not.
