Folks:
I might be a little thick here but I’ve tried to set up MSM as instructed but when visiting site B, site A is shown at the site B domain.
I’m unclear on a few things in the MSM documentation (http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/cp/sites/createsite.html). Specifically:
“Admin—> System Preferences” - Am I just really dumb or does this not exist in EE2? Is this actually supposed to be “Admin > General Configuration”? That’s where I’m making my changes anyway.
“Update the System Preferences to match the URL you will be using for the new Site.” - This seems pretty vague. There are four places where you can change the URL but only one of them makes intuitive sense. The four places:
URL to the root directory of your site - It makes sense to change this to http://siteb.com.
URL to your Control Panel index page - Shouldn’t this remain http://sitea.com? That’s where the CP is, no?
URL to your “themes” folder - There is no themes folder for siteB so I’m guessing this remains siteA.com.
Theme Folder Path - Again, there is no Themes folder for siteB so I’m guessing this remain siteA.com.
A couple of other notes:
If I set the “Is site on” option to “no” siteB still shows siteA.
If I set the “Is system on?” option to “no” siteB shows offline but siteA still shows.
Yes, MSM is on.
Yes, I am looking at the configuration for siteB in the CP.
Yes, I’ve create an index template for siteB.
Yes, I am logged out when I check the site and system.
Any help sorting this out would be appreciated.
