And you want videos.site1.com to redirect to Site 2? That sounds to me like a DNS change and not something you need to do inside WordPress. * Thread Starter [mathanraj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mathanraj/) * (@mathanraj) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977966) * No, i don’t want to change DNS of both domain. It should be as it is. For eg: i change the theme in videos.site1.com If i enter the videos.site1.com it sucessfully redirect to site2.com and shown that theme. * Why i am doing this, i want to mange all the domains with the help of multisite in the A server only. I don’t want to go to B server. * I am having many domains and differnet web hosting. I want to manage all of them in one web server without moving files. * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977972) * Well, you’ll need to move the content of siteb over to the multisite install at sitea. * whrn you sucessfully map a domain, it then shows up at the same server. Doesn; t matter if siteB used to be on a different serve,r once you map it. it shows up in site a. * I think you;re misunderstanding what domain mapping does. It changes the address of a subsite to another domain. but it still shows the** content** of the subsite. * you cannot manage the blog on another hosting account with multisite, domain mapping or not. * Thread Starter [mathanraj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mathanraj/) * (@mathanraj) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977979) * yes,I done this. it will shows the **content **of the subsite. * If anything changes in subsite, it always stored (database table) in mutisite install at A server. I want to store in B server also. * Why it’s not possible to manage blog on another hosting account with multisite? what about [this plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hyperdb/)? Is this support on shard hosting? * I think this plugin, capable works on multiserver.. i think so.. * [Tim Moore](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tmoorewp/) * (@tmoorewp) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977980) * No, that plugin does not work the way you think it does. That plugin is for people who run their own servers, not for people who use shared hosting accounts. * Andrea is right. What you are doing is not what WordPress MultiSite is designed to do. * Thread Starter [mathanraj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mathanraj/) * (@mathanraj) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977983) * I asked [here ](http://wpguru.co.uk/2010/07/testing-hyperdb/comment-page-1/#comment-1606) and says possible in shared hosting. * Moderator [Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) * (@ipstenu) * 🏳️‍🌈 Advisor and Activist * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977984) * You asked “Can I use HyperDB on shared hosting” and yes, yes you can. * If you asked “Can I use HyperDB for WordPress Multisite?” then that’s a DIFFERENT question. * Read: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hyperdb/changelog/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hyperdb/changelog/) * First item under version 1.0: * > Removed support for WPMU and BackPress. * Thread Starter [mathanraj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mathanraj/) * (@mathanraj) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977985) * [@ipstenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) No This plugin support Multisite. It’s not support WPMU * In wordpress, WPMU is old one it support only multisite.

HyperDB isn’t tagged as being MultiSite friendly. Yes, MU support was removed, but that doesn’t mean MultiSite was put in to replace it. And yes, I know this is what’s used on WordPress.com for a master/slave setup, but that doesn’t mean the Plugin was kept up. It’s a HyperDB question, which as you know here [has not been answered yet](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/hyperdb-installation?replies=1#post-1991227). * So no, we don’t know either how to make it work (though I DO know that HyberDB doesn’t DO the replication for you, SQL has to do that). * If you want to setup WordPress MultiSite with domain mapping, follow Andrea’s directions. * If you just want to get HyperDB up and running, you have your other topic. * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1977987) * And hyper db still **WILL NOT DO WHAT YOU WANT**. * You cannot manage multiple blogs on different shared hosts with multisite and you could not do it with WPMU. Period. regardless of plugins. * I do know there are a couple plugins that will let you manage multiple *installs* on different hosts, but it has nothing to do with multisite. * Thread Starter [mathanraj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mathanraj/) * (@mathanraj) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1978004) * [@ipstenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) * > I DO know that HyberDB doesn’t DO the replication for you, SQL has to do that). * so,with the help of sql query is possible. * [@andrea_r](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * > I do know there are a couple plugins that will let you manage multiple *installs* > on different hosts * Can you tell me which plugin? I think these plugin shardb or multi-db. * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1978016) * > Can you tell me which plugin? I think these plugin shardb or multi-db. * No. Those are not the plugins. I said I can’t remember the names, mostly because they sound cheesy. * I can’t remember the names of the ones I was thinking of but multi db and shardb and hyper db are for splitting the databases across ONE host. * Again, **those plugins do not do what you want**. * [Andrea Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrea_r/) * (@andrea_r) * [15 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multisitemulti-server/#post-1978017) * Edit: found it. * [http://managewp.com/](http://managewp.com/) * See? NOT multiple db plugins.
