Hello dear Gwangi Team members,
I would like to have advice.
I have several domain names for my website. Let’s say http://www.mysite.com is the main domain. I also have mysite.be and mysite.fr. And I would like to have ‘national’ homepages: mysite.be with some pictures of the Atomium and a pack of fries, mysite.fr with pictures of the Eiffel tower and a french baguette (I love stereotypes :-))
Mysite.be would only show Belgian profiles, mysite.fr would only show French profiles, and mysite.com would show all profiles. I think I can modifiy the MeshPros code I asked to show only the searched gender and add a country filter for the .be and .fr.But what is the best way to do that?
A multisite wordpress installation?
A bunch of homepages with redirections?
I don’t know which is the best to use the same DB for the 3 homepages.An I hope you can give me some advice to find my way.
Best regards,
Hi @gillesderon,
If you wish to keep the same database, centralizing all your settings, language management and users, it seems better advised to keep a unique website with multiple homepages. As you mention, you can actually set configure multiple homepages with different URLs, and even progressively improve those with A/B testing plugins.
At themosaurus, we use multisite WordPress installations for our demos and our main website, because we wish to share our software across all of them (same theme and same plugins), streamline our website management (same admins) but keep the settings and users separated. For instance, our website, documentation website and support forum are managed via the same WordPress. However, there’s no need to let user log into the documentation website as it is for the support forum.
I hope this reply will help to make your final choice.
Cheers,
Hi @themosaurusrex,
Yes, your answer help me a lot. Thank you again.
Let’s go make some new homepages…
Cheers,
You’re welcome @gillesderon. I’m glad to share our experience with multisite WordPress installations.
Cheers,
