I am trying to do the same thing — on one website, have multiple blogs. Different main writers, different set of topics, same basic theme but with a slight variations — maybe just a logo different on each blog, that’s all.
So I’m trying to figure out the difference between having one blog on your website with multiple categories, each representing a different blog, versus having multiple blogs on your website created by multiple installations of WordPress.
My question: If I have one blog with multiple Categories — say Music by Bill, Sports by Sharon, Politics by Tom, etc — if Bill creates a new post, I want it to go to the top of his main Category page, and on that page it will have a logo of Music. If Sharon creates a new post on Sports, I want it to go to the top of her main Sports blog page, so that readers of her blog will not even see Bill’s music post or politics posts by Tom. They’ll think they are in a completely different blog.
It seems I can do this by installing three versions of WordPress, with three databases, and have three different homepages. But I’d rather not have three installations and three databases on my site. Would love to do it with categories and one installation.
