Howdy folks, I'm looking at Magnolia as a possible replacement/supplement to our Vignette CMS. Magnolia seems very nicely done and approachable, and I like the straightforward approach to editing, templating, administration, etc. Support for JSR-170 and JSR-168 (in the higher-end version) certainly sweetens the deal as well.
The one thing I haven't been able to sort out yet is whether it's possible to support multiple sites with Magnolia. We have about 250 websites we're eventually planning to move into a managed architecture. Each of those sites has different administrators and users. Unfortunately, running 250 discrete instances of Magnolia doesn't seem pratical. I found this page on the wiki which seems to provide some direction: http://www.magnolia.info/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=RunningSeveralSitesWithOneMagnol iaInstance This seems to give a good idea of how to serve several discrete sites from one Magnolia installation, but doesn't touch at all on Security. I've tried setting up accounts that use the Roles' Access Control List to only show certain parts of the content tree, but haven't had much luck with that. So, is anybody using Magnolia to serve a bunch of sites, and if so, what sort of approach do you take? Thanks in advance for any information, Sean McMains ---------------------------------------------------------------- for list details see http://www.magnolia.info/en/magnolia/developer.html ----------------------------------------------------------------
