Sharing settings between "twinned" siteaccesses

Luigi Spagnolo	Wednesday 22 July 2009 3:58:43 am A recommended practice for implementing multi-language sites with ezPublish is using several public siteaccesses. The problem is that in many cases, multiple multi-language sites must be supported by the same eZPublish installation, each one with its own design. This mean that, if I support two languages for each site, I will have a pair of siteaccesses for each site, e.g. in my case: - ita and eng for the main front-end - json_ita and json_eng for creating JSON feeds of nodes - mobile_ita and mobile_eng for a mobile version of the website. Obviously ita and eng share the same design, while json_ita and json_eng share another design, and the same for mobile_ita and mobile_eng. The problem is thay I cannot figure out a way to make those pairs of siteaccesses share the same settings, e.g. the same override.ini, simplifying their maintenance. So, I ask you: is there a way to achieve this,i.e. making siteaccesses that differ only for the language share at least part of the settings?

You could also create "settings" extensions, that contain nothing but settings. Then activate the same extension in whatever siteaccesses you want to share those settings. Of course, be mindful of the order of the loading of INI files:

Default
Extensions enabled for that siteaccess
Siteaccess
Extensions enabled globally
