Shared Installation on ISS

Post by MoonBlossom »

I successfully installed serendipity on ISS 6 as a single user. And it a great blog system, thank you guys ^^

I have a community site that uses php nuke platinum, although I don’t know if I could make serendipity into a nuke module to let my users have their own blog I understand I can at least set a shared installation for them.

I red the shared installation instructions but I don’t want to use virtual host, I would like something simpler, like just having subdirectories for each user, something like:

www.mysite.com/blog/user_name

So I uploaded all the files that came with the serendipity distribution into www.mysite.com/blog/ and then I made a sub directory /user_name that contain these directories:

/deployment
/htmlarea
/templates

Since I cannot create a new database I was thinking in using maybe a different prefix on the table, maybe like serendipity_username_

But I’m stuck here, and I don’t know what to do next.:oops: :oops:

Please help,
Thank you

I think someone created a "Shared install without virtual hosts" How-To here on the forums, please search for that...

Sine you need to manually create a script which installs s9y inside a Database and setup the serendipity_config_local.inc.php files if you want to automate the install of a shared version you can definitely use only different table names instead of different DB names.
