BuddyPress.org

(I believe what I’m about to write is relatable to the topic at hand; if not, feel free to close the thread!)

I’m just starting to grasp the whole concept of multi-sites.

From what I’ve read, it’s exactly what I want to do.

But I need some clarification.

Here’s my setup, I have WPMU+BuddyPress installed in the root:

hxxp://www.example.com (blog_id #1 should be shown here, including all its posts, categories and pages)

I want all subsequent blogs to be created from

hxxp://blogs.example.com

So that new blogs will have a subdirectory under that subdomain.

eg. hxxp://blogs.example.com/newuserblog/

Single sign-on should work across the root and subdomain.

From those that have responded to me on the WPMU forums, this should be possible with the multi-site plugin.

Now for the BuddyPress questions!

Okay, so let’s say I login to BuddyPress (which is installed in the root instance of MU) and I want to create a new blog from “My Account > Create a blog”, would BuddyPress be creating this new blog under the new Site instance (eg. the subdomain Site – blogs.example.com? This is what I would want to do. I’m guessing this would require some core hacking.

Also, if I go to hxxp://www.example.com/blogs, would this show blogs from the blogs.example.com subdomain?
