Adding multiple tikis AFTER installing one?

posts: 14

I am interested in running multiple tiki sites using apache virtual host, but my question is:

If I set up one (or several) sites initially, can I easily add sites later on?

I think I can, simply by creating a new database for that website, making a virtual host file, modifying local.php, and adding new directory structure, then running tiki-install.php again and choosing the new database. (This information from the various webpages on tikiwiki.org on multi site virtual hosting).

But the info doesn't mention adding sites at a later time. If I rerun setup.sh with new hostnames, will that create new directories with permissions and leave the old websites intact? Does re-running the tiki-install.php script also leave the old websites intact?

thanks for any info!

Hi James,

I would backup the database. and any disc storage areas

Create the multiple tiki installation
Resort the original site database into one of the new created databases.

I think that would be the safest
