just to avoid any confusion i do not own the real domain of homehomes com. I may have just helped them with their linking building by mistake. 🙂
couple questions.. is ny.homeshomes.com goign to be populated by WordPress generated content? or is that going to be stand alone content that you have created with something else?
I have never attempted to do any rewrite stuff with wordpress, that would result in permalinks like that, ie
ny.homeshomes.com/this-house/
where ny might be the category, and this_post is the slug.
It will have some wp content related to each page.
For example:
ny.homehomes.com, the sub domain of homehomes.com, will have links to any of my blogs concerning homes in NY. The same page will contain video of homes in NY. I will be designing home or land pages for each of the subdomains.
I’m basically trying to put links on subdomain pages that I will desgin that will lead the reader back to the home blog via the catergory related to that page.
An example
-user visits ny.homehomes.com which is the subdomain of homeshome.com
-user clicks on new post concerning blog about property taxes in NY on the subdomian page
-link leads to the post on the main blog whcih is also the catergory for house in NY
I just want to know if this is possible with this software. Just creating a basic html/php home page and supply links that go back to caterogies at the main domain site.
I hope that made sense
thanks!

That isnt what I asked, and thats integral to the answer.
I asked if that content would be generated by WordPress., ie if you are going to be using WordPress to make that content, either via a page or a post.
Im asking because IF thats the case, than you **may** need to rely on WP rewriting the urls. Whereas if youre providing that content outside of your WordPress install, it’s trivial to do the rewrites inside your .htaccess.
actually, here:
http://www.gregboser.com/wordpress-subdomain-plugin/
that will do exactly what you are describing, so the answer is yes.
I think you just answered my question. My goal is to basically have wp re-write the urls for me and I will update the rest of the content on the page that is in the form of videos of different areas. Thanks for the help whooami.
youre very welcome, good luck 🙂
Plugin is unsupported…. and it doesn’t work with 2.3.x
🙁
What about WordPressMU? It does this by default. Each subdomain will be its own blog.
