Multiple Sites utilizing same backend..

[icedewd]

I previously posted this message in error on the wrong forum. (honest mistake... please forgive me)

Ok so I have mutiple sites that "Redirect" to one domain name. I was wondering if there was a way for them all to "SHARE" the same database backend. I just want a different front page / portal for everyone and would like the same content on all sites.. Any ideas? I am not trying to get around the system just trying to give sorta custom feel to each site.

www.turborides.com
www.boostedrides.com
www.turbochevy.com
www.poweradders.com
www.nitrousjunkies.com

The sites are just different names with the same content. Didnt know if there was a way to just change the logo based on the URI?

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated...

VBAdvanced will solve your needs

From there you can use an htaccess file to redirect from that domain to a several different pages.

However.... the sites must keep uniformity and must be obviously part of the same whole site otherwise you'll come dangerously close and perhaps cross the user agreement with vbulletin.

Here is my site for example.

www.mmogcommunities.com

from the mainpage you can see the various other mainpages. Like the mpsquad site www.mmogcommunities.com/index.php?page=mpsquad

You can easily setup an htaccess file to redirect like www.mpsquad.com to that new url.

Though right now the mpsquad chumps have an entrance page hosted elsewhere with a link to that url, but you get the point :)

i understand how to use the .htaccess but if someone accessed www.turborides.com and if someone accessed www.boostedrides.com (All the Same Server and IP Address) then what would i redirect them to? I was thinking i would have mutiple vbadvanced installs...
