OK support at UK2.net tells me I have to add

memory_limit = 64M

in a new PHP.ini file as well as add

SetEnv PHPRC /home/username/public_html/php.ini

to the ht.access file.

But I have very little coding knowledge.

Could you tell me what the whole php-ini code looks like and is it just a notepad file called PHP.ini (ext: ini)?

thanks

OK support tells me I have to create the file in your Step 1 as well as change the ht.accss.

Backed up Softaculous DB then deleted a stray wp folder in the directory and at least the log in page appeared but then, the same message…

Well as it happens I paid WP for Domain Mapping ($10 yr) and have started to get fairly decent results on google. That was the main problem. Really, if the free templates for WP.com get a little better, there’s not much reason for going through the rigmarole of full .org installations, learning codes and paying for extra hosting etc. anyway! Jeesh, I got enough to do already! Thanks all.

Hi Andrea, thanks. Does this mean (with your option A) that I’ll need a separate hosting account for each install or are you saying that (even in the case of ‘Websites for Dummies’ hoster, 123reg.co.uk) I will be able to host multiple installs and configure it all manually?

This is what 123reg said:

“The hosting package with 123 Reg will only allow you to have 1 domain linked to it.
Which means you can only have one Word Press web site per hosting package.”
Also on Networking WP:
“No, this feature would not work on shared 123-Reg hosting as it requires bespoke Apache configuration.”

Thanks James.

My main issue is that I want to give clients full Author access to their individual WP accounts while I maintain control over the domain names I purchased for them – in addition I don’t want any of the penalising from search engines that might go with domain pointing / frames etc. etc.

Do you recommend a fast, cheap hoster in the UK that allows manual configuration (not 1-Click apps)? (Assuming DNS config for this is straightforward from the domain provider I’m with and again, doesn’t cause problems with search engines.)

Thanks but that’s a really complicated option!

According to
https://www.optiniche.com/blog/392/multiple-installs-single-database/
(in the case of using a single DB – before we talk about multiple domains pointing to multiple WP)….
1-click apps such as what Web Fusion provide are no good.
