Multiple websites and aliases?

Hi there,

I've seen it mentioned in the forum that you can define multiple websites in TL and, with a bit of digging, I've found out that this is done using a 'root' page, and set up two websites.

Both websites have a similar page structure, with similarly-named pages, but I've found that I can't use the same alias for pages that are in separate sites (e.g. the home page in website 'A' has an alias of 'home' which means that I can't use an alias of 'home' in website 'B'.

Is this right or is there something I need to do to enable this?

I'm using 2.7.2 BTW.

Cheers,
Paul.

There is no way to accomplish this as aliases are global. But you might find another alias (like "index")?

Thanks for confirming that flob - at least I know to stop banging my head against a brick wall! :lol:

So I guess, the only way to accomplish what I want is to have a separate TL install for each website. :|

Cheers,
Paul.

Hi,
actually there is a way to use the same aliases in different page roots. You just have to define a (sub-)domain per root, e.g. www.my-nice-website.com/index.html, fr.my-nice-website.com/index.html and de.my-nice-website.com/index.html. www.my-nice-french-site.com/index.html and www.my-nice-german-site.com/index.html would also work in one TL-installation.
Greetings,
