Re: How to allow members to create their own blogs?
== Firstly, I can’t find the httpd.conf file they want me to edit. I do have the ability to add subdomains so I wonder if putting * in the cpanel field will suffice.==
Depending on your hosting plan, some webhosts do not allow users to have access to httpd.conf file. Note that the subdomains created by WordPress are “virtual” not “physical” or actual subdomains you would create in your cPanel. And yes, sometimes just adding `*` in field will suffice, sometimes not.
Have you tried to
– install WordPress and go straight to Step 3 and see if you can already set up subdomain structure – there will be feedback/notice in admin panel whether you can or cannot go subdomain
– Contact webhost if your hosting plan allows for WordPress Multisite in subdomain structure and point them to the WP Codex page re “Create A Network” to get a definitive answer. Some webhosts require server plan upgrade, some don’t.
