Multiple Blogs Through Multiple Installs 다중 설치를 통한 멀티 블로그

만약 횽이 워드프레스로 여러개의 블로그를사용하고 싶다면, 횽은 각각 별도로 설치를 해야만 해(즉, 워드프레스를 개별적으로 설치하는것이지), You can do this whether you have the ability to create multiple databases or are limited to a single database.

Multiple Databases

You'll need a separate MySQL database for each blog you plan to install. If you have not yet created these, basic instructions are found here.

The wp-config.php file will vary for each installation. The lines to change are:

define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');     // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'username');     // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password'); // ...and password

DB_NAME will be the name of the individual database created for that blog. If you are using different user logins for each database, edit DB_USER and DB_PASSWORD to reflect this, as well.

Upload each wp-config.php file to its specific root/installation directory, and run the installation. See Installing WordPress for more information.

Single Database

As with the multiple databases solution described above, the wp-config.php file will vary for each installation. In this case, however, only a single line will be unique to each blog:

$table_prefix = 'wp_'; // example: 'wp_' or 'b2' or 'mylogin_'

By default, WordPress assigns the table prefix wp_ to its MySQL database tables, but this prefix can be anything you choose. By using more than one, you create unique identifiers for each blog in your database. For example, let's say you have three blogs to set up, with the names Main, Projects and Test. You want to substitute the prefix wp_ for each blog's wp-config.php:

Main blog:

$table_prefix = 'main_';

Projects blog:

$table_prefix = 'projects_';

Test blog:

$table_prefix = 'test_';

As noted, you may use a prefix of your own making. Those provided here are for example purposes only.

Upload each wp-config.php file to its specific root/installation directory, and run the installation. See Installing WordPress for more information.

Multiple Install Automation

WordPress user Stephanie Booth provides instructions on automating the installation of multiple blogs for a weblog farm in her posting, Scripts for a WordPress Weblog Farm. In Musings on a Multiblog WordPress, Stephanie shares her thoughts on the process.

You should have a peek at http://climbtothestars.org/play/wordpress.sh.txt -- a work in progress.

Alternative WordPress Projects

Alternative projects and plugins which provide some level of multi-blogging facility.

[edit]

WordPress MU

WordPress MU is an official branch of WordPress that is designed for managing and hosting thousands of blogs instead of just one.

WordPress MU is ideal for applications like blog networks and newspapers looking to manage multiple blogs from a single installation, enterprise users looking for a large scale blogging solution for intranet deployments, schools and universities who want to offer blogs to all their students and teachers, or individuals looking to host multiple blogs for their families or friends.

Like single-user WordPress, WordPress MU is available for free under the GPL open source license.

Example MU installations include:

WordPress.com (400k blogs and several million page views per day as of Fall 06)
Harvard University (free blogs for Harvard faculty and students)
Le Monde Interactive (5,000 blogs for the Le Monde newspaper and its readers)
EduBlogs (free hosted blogs for schools and teachers).

Lyceum

Developed by ibiblio.org, Lyceum is a stand-alone mutli-user multi-blogging application. Utilizing the WordPress blogging engine at its core, Lyceum enables stand-alone, multi-user multi-blog services for small and high-volume environments. At its core, Lyceum is a minimally-featured enhancement to WordPress. We let WordPress do what it does well; we simply added nice things like smart administrative controls, an easy-to-use installer, enterprise-oriented database architecture, support for load-balancing, all the while focusing on flexibility, security and usability.

Lyceum is GPL-licensed, under active development, and free to use. Lyceum currently powers Teach for America Blogs, RootsPrimary Blogs and the Thought Mechanics People Blogs

vhost plugin

This plugin maps a virtual host to a single WordPress category, supporting fully independent themes. Additionally, users can be restricted by the blog admin to post in only one category (and thus only one vhost):

Multiply

Multiply is a plugin for WordPress 1.5.x which allows multiple blogs -- or, in the pretentious terminology I have adopted, "presses" -- from within the one administration interface.
