Sam:
It's really easy to set up more sites using only one ezPublish. Right now, I'm using one 'pagelayout.tpl'. According to the 'id', it displays its content. The 'id' I'm talking about here are different domain names pointing to an 'overall' site, which handles the content. Domain1 points to the id of site1, domain2 points to the id of site2.
Example:
domain1 => site1.id = 20 => overall site shows: everything where id=20 domain2 => site2.id=30 => overall site shows: everything where id=30 I use only one pagelayout.tpl, because these sites are all connected to each other and I want them to have exactly the same layout (not the images of course, because they are 'dynamically', just like the content). If you want to use completely different layouts for your sites, you should use different sections. In that case, you still have site1 (with id=20) and site2 (with id=30), but since you defined different sections (and thus different pagelayout.tpl's) the sites have different layouts. Hope this helps... = = = = = = = = = =

I think you already know what I did, I tried to explain this in my reply to Sam. Thanks for your help, but I don't think that solution suits me. Right now I'm talking about 2 sites, but I'm planning to build more. Like, 20 or so? And if I have to create 20 different siteaccesses... aaaaah, I can already visualize me drewling in a mental hospital :D Anyways, I know now ezPublish cannot handle it the way I want (which makes perfect sense, I'm not dissapointed or anything) Thanks. -- Mark
