Daniela,

sorry, the approach that I posted here only works for different subdomains, like http://anotherblog.example.com

Hi! I think I have a similar or same question to this topic. Our blog is growing and we have volunteers to write articles for our site. I would like to make a new sub domain or directory where this second blog would include these posts. I am not sure how to start. Here is the information you may need:
- we are using Bluehost
- we would like to have to blogs under the same domain:
o example: current domain http://example.com, second domain for our second blog would be http://example.com/blog/
I would appreciate any help. I am not an PHP or HTML expert but I can learn.
Thank you.

Thank you for your quick response. I figured I might have to upgrade. As far as administration panel, I have C panel and PhPmyadmin, but I suspect those are not what you are talking about.

If that’s the case, then I have to upgrade my hosting service. *sigh*

Lea, with the current configuration you can only run it with a second wordpress which is ugly, because you have to keep both installations up-to-date.

If you want one single wordpress, then you need to change the root-folder of mynewdomain.com. That’s nothing that you can do a file system level. If your hosting company gives you an administration panel, look there. Otherwise contact your hosting company.

I’m showing how new I am to this with my following question. On my basic hosting plan I have one database and allowed one add on domain and one subdomain. I already had mycurrentblog.com setup and running for several months. I just added mynewdomain.com as an add on domain.

Its listed in my server files as home/nameid/public_html/mynewdomain.com. My problem is the redirect, I can’t figure out where it should be redirected to in order to initialize installation.

Previously, acting under a misconception of the procedure, I got an installation command with the code you provided and installed mynewdomain.com onto my previously installed wordpress database, but I couldn’t access mycurrentblog.com, so I removed the code from the config file in order to get that working again.

I know mynewdomain.com installation is still on the database because it shows up in my plugin stats for the database.

Database statistics

mynewdomain_comments 0 Bytes 228 Bytes 6.14 kB 228 Bytes
mynewdomain_links 1 140 Bytes 528 Bytes 4.10 kB 388 Bytes
mynewdomain_options 101 5.66 kB 571.96 kB 10.24 kB 536 Bytes
mynewdomain_postmeta 45 Bytes 228 Bytes 7.17 kB 0 Bytes
mynewdomain_posts 14 452 Bytes 6.33 kB 6.14 kB 0 Bytes
mynewdomain_term_relationships 21 Bytes 378 Bytes 3.07 kB 84 Bytes
mynewdomain_term_taxonomy 2 42 Bytes 84 Bytes 3.07 kB 0 Bytes
mynewdomain_terms 2 36 Bytes 72 Bytes 8.19 kB 0 Bytes
mynewdomain_usermeta 7 89 Bytes 628 Bytes 7.17 kB 0 Bytes
mynewdomain_users 1 96 Bytes 96 Bytes 4.10 kB 0 Bytes
mycurrentblog_comments 228 Bytes 228 Bytes 6.14 kB 0 Bytes
and etc.

Since mynewdomain.com is already added to my server under home/nameid/public_html/mynewdomain.com, I’m confused as to where I should redirect it to before replacing your code in the config and be able to access both domains.

Could you possibly help me with this?

Lea, that depends on your hosting company. For my server I can simply add a new domain or subdomain to the same account and let its root path point to the existing wordpress installation. That way nothing is lost and I can run multiple blogs with one installation.

Is there be a way to add new domains to an already functioning wordpress installation? Your code works great, but I don’t want to lose everything that’s on my original site that’s currently on the wordpress installation. Wouldn’t a new install of wordpress delete all my current data and information?
