You can very easily link the child portal from anywhere on the web ( from within the parent or from anywhere on the net ) like http://<PARENTPORTAL>/<CHILDPORTAL>


For example, your domain name is myportal.com and you have created a child cold childportal, then you can link like http://www.myportal.com/childportal from any where on the net

 hi ,

First of all i introduce my self Md.liyakhat ali khan. I am wroking in as software developer in india. I think you can clarify my doubt.

requrement is like this.

> Point 1)

Using with DNN the user will create the webpages, these pages will store in to the DNN folder. After creation of pages those pages should be appear

in the users websites after user save the contents or those pages should be mirror the user website.


I have to Analye whether multiple portals can be created in DNN and the possibility for multiple users.

o      I have to Analyze whether multiple DNN should be installed for each user or the same instance can be used for multiple users.

thx in advance,

liyakhat

I organize my portals in subfolders for the path and the files

Just make the portalalias for the path

then you have to change the home directory for the portals table. thats it

Thanks IndianGuru and dstuve! I was having a hard time finding info on this. One last question. Do you need to install the DNN files separately into the child folder as well, and then just link to that folder? For instance, here are two ways I was thinking of doing it:

1. Parent portal: website.com/dnn       Child Portal: website.com/demo
In this method I installed separate files into the demo directory and ran the install from going to it on the web (website.com/demo). The parent was on DNN 4.3.2 and when I installed DNN 4.3.5 in the method described above, it upgraded the database. It's weird that it upgraded several times for me when browsing the site on a few occasions yesterday (probably due to my parent site being cached by Pageblaster). It seems fine now and everything works as planned. I don't want to speak too soon but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

2. Parent portal: website.com       Child Portal: website.com/demo
My hosting provider suggests that I don't install DNN on the root of my site, but rather to a sub directory. That's why I did the first method. Is it better to have the parent in the root and the child in a subdirectory?

Also, I was under the impression you didn't have to install the DNN files for each child portal after the parent is installed. Am I missing some thing, or do you need the separate default.aspx file to reference on the web.

Thanks so much for your input!
