WordPress 3 allows us to run multiple blogs on dedicated domains from a single installation on one server. This version of WP uses a single user table. We would like to use aMember to allow readers to purchase subscriptions to the individual blogs. Here's how this would be set-up: Server |-/wordpress |-/blog-a <= domain-a.com |-/blog-b <= domain-b.com |-/blog-c <= domain-c.com |-/amember <= accounts.domain-a.com Is using aMember like this possible? Are licenses for each domain needed since all domains will run on one server under one installation of WordPress? Technically, under this set-up we are not running multiple domains. We're just having multiple domains point to the same installation. When we purchase aMember, we're asked for the domain where it will be installed. Under the above scenario, would we enter domain-a.com or store.domain-a.com?
Sure this is possible. In regards to license specify domain-a.com when purchase. It will work for all subdomains within that domain name .
Similar question: 1. I first installed amember here. http://mydomain.com/amember/ 2. I have created and installed an SSL (secure socket layer) on this subdomain. http://secure.mydomain.com/amember/ 3.copied the amember folders to the above domain location. I created this so that just the amember files are protected by the SSL and not my entire website. How do I change the links and url of the amember installation so that it all runs seamlessly? 1. So that when user signup/login the are directed to http://secure.mydomain.com/amember/signup.php instead of http://mydomain.com/amember/signup.php . 2. Then directed back to http://mydomain.com after signup. Thank you
I would suggest that instead of using a subdomain, you set up a SSL cert (https://) and set aMember to use that. example: http://mydomain.com <- your site: https://mydomain.com <- amember secure Setting your cookie from root domain (mydomain.com) will easily share between subdomains (a.mydomain.com, b.mydomain.com) but setting from a subdomain (secure.mydomain.com) to root or subdomains is not as trusted to prevent cross site attacks.
So would I be using the same domain for both http://mydomain.com and https://mydomain.com? The only difference would be that the https:// is secured using a SSL, correct?
I am currently using aMember with Wordpress (amProtect) and a vBulletin Forum on a single domain. I would like to move my vBulletin installation to a new domain on a different server, but I want to still be able to use the same settings I have with aMember and keep it integrated with my current product hosted on Wordpress through that same aMember install. Here is where it gets tricky though. I am launching a new product on another domain (so this is domain 3) with another Wordpress Install and would like to have it integrated with the same Forum on the 2nd domain. Is this possible? Thanks. Mike
Mike, Not sure I understand setup. So you will have: wordpress and aMember on one domain (current one) forum on second domain wordpress and aMember on third domain is this correct? And want to integrate two aMember installations into the same forum? This is possible is second aMember installation is clean(does not have users yet) Just install forum plugin on the both installations and use the same settings in plugin configuration for both installations.
