Hey Idev,

Its definitely possible to access your mu databases with custom PHP scripts. Like the regular one blog version of Wordpress, what is displayed and available is always a reflection of what you have in the database.

For a start, just login into your phpMyAdmin and analyse the DB to understand how the tables are linked, and essentially what you need to do to enable users to complete the tasks they need to accomplish.

The MU forums would also be a good place to start asking.

Hi Kian

Thanks for the easy steps. I wanted to know if its possible to directly access the WPMU database from external php scripts? I am trying to allow access to users from elsewhere. So need to be able to add/access data to the tables from custom php scripts. Is that possible ?

Thanks a lot for the tut again !

I am trying to install MU wordpress in my hosting account for different domains. Thanks for a great explanation! I have installed MU in my domain with dedicated IP and when I did the same to the domain witha shared IP address it did not work, so I am gonna send to my admin to make some changes to the httpd.conf file and hope this will solve the problem.

And literally seconds after my last comment I realised what the problem might be and sure enough I was right. I hadn’t left enough time for the DNS entry to propogate through to my ISP’s DNS. After setting up the wild card sub domain and waiting a few minutes, I’ve now got sub domain blogs working. Great post and comments BTW.

I’m trying to get WPMU with sub domains working on my WHM/cPanel x3 shared hosting but my sub domain blogs just aren’t resolving. I’ve added the wildcard sub domain and checked the entry in the DNS records for the domain but going to x.example.com just throws a DNS error from my ISP. Everyone else seems to have had success with this – can anyone tell me where I’m going wrong? It’s killing me! Thanks.
