Same Layout on Multisites

  • Hi Guys,

    I installed a multisite but now i need to build a whole new layout for each of my subdomains. I want the main layout with logo etc be the same but only the content to be different.

    So for example i need to make 100 trainers pages like:

    trainer1.website.com trainer2.website.com etc

    and only want to change the photo and bio on each page but with the multisite you need the build every page again and again? Next if i want to change for example only a logo i dont want to do this 100 times but only 1 time, how can i do this?

    Can anyone help me out with this thanx?

  • @sportfeed,

    WordPress Multisite is so-named because it allows you to run *multiple WordPress sites* (not just pages) with a single installation of WordPress. So trainer1.example.com and trainer2.example.com will be two independent fully-fledged WordPress sites — each complete with its own plugins, themes, users, posts, pages, etc.

    You can activate the same theme on all subsites to maintain a uniform brand, but like you said — you have to configure each site separately (though there are plugins tat can clone a pre-configured reference site).

    Frankly, if its just a sinle page for each trainer, Multisite may be overkill. You may want to look into BuddyPress or any of the User Profile plugins out there (with the downside that you’ll have a URL like example.com/trainer1 and not a sub-domain like trainer1.example.com)

    Good luck!

    i agree with George, i would make a page for each trainer and assign the subdomain for each page, multisite is overkill and like Geaorge said look buddypress sound amazing for what you are building good luck!
