if i were you, i'd check into the possibility of upgrading in the meantime, cake core already has the ability to be located elsewhere, as does the app folder, so your only true issue is using a different db config per site
what I would do, is put your entire cms in a central accessible location, then copy your app/webroot into each website folder. modify the webroot's index.php to hold a $site_id value, assign a value in each site's index.php then in the database conf file, setup a switch based on the $site_id if you need more help, lemme know On 6/27/07, quincy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I apologise in advance becasue I know this has come up many times > already, but I cannot seem to find the information I'm after.
