    Hi,

    I have a website for deals and discounts created with a theme. Now I am planning to add a store and and free classifieds. I have different themes for all three sites on a multisite network. I am facing following issues:-

    1) Each of them have different my-account section for end users. Is it possible that ‘my account’ section shows same for all the sites i.e showing ‘my account’ data collectively from all three sites.

    2) I want user to be registered for all the sites if they register for one.

    3) I want same header and footer to appear in all the sites.

    How can I achieve these three requirements?

    Thanks,
    Mahendra

  • 1. Maybe. It will dpeend on the theme and plugins that are set for each section. If they are the same then it will show the same thing. if not, there’s a good chance that they won’t. If might need some custom code to draw everything into one central area.

    2. That’s a default action of a multi-site installation. All users are registered on all sites, only permissions vary from site to site depending on what they should be allowed to do.

    3. Easy. Just use the same header.php and footer.php file in every theme. Or, even easier, use the same theme for each site.

    Thanks for reply catacaustic.

    I think,as you said, I need to custom code it myself for 1. Solutions for 2 and 3 sound good.
