Multisite compatibility

    Hi,

    Is the Restaurant Reservations plugin compatible with multi-sites?

    I’ve never used multi-site before, but have a restaurant with five locations who needs their current site (non wordpress) updating – and I’m thinking the best way to go this way.

    If I did do this, I’m assuming I would upload a separate plugin to each site rather than through the Network Admin – is that right?

    Many thanks,

    Alan

    Hi Alan,

    As far as I’m aware, Restaurant Reservations is compatible with multisite. I develop on a multisite installation locally and have not experienced any problems.

    With WordPress multisite, you don’t upload separate plugins to each site. Instead, you have a “network administrator” role which uploads plugins. Then each site can activate/deactivate whichever plugins they need, and each site gets its own settings and database content.

    It’s pretty intuitive once you dig in. I can’t say whether it’s appropriate for your needs. The key to remember is that each site has all of its own content. A multisite setup is appropriate when you need a separate domain name for each location, with separate content for each one. In this case, the main benefit of running multisite is that you’ll only have one copy of the code — WordPress, themes and plugins — to keep updated.

    Hi Nate,

    That’s brilliant – thanks Nate.

    Yes, spent a few hours on research yesterday about multisite, but you made the plugin functionality much clearer when you said “each site gets its own settings and database content.”

    Many thanks once again,

    Alan
