wiki farm mode

Hi,

We're attempting to set up a wiki farm using wikidot. Quick question:

Instead of using wildcard DNS to support a subdomain for each wiki, is there any way to set up wikidot so that the wikis would be addressable as follows:

http://www.mydomain.com/wiki1
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki2
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki3
http://www.mydomain.com/wiki4

After reading through some of the posts, I'm guessing the answer is that we have to use subdomains for the wiki farm, but just wanted to verify. Thanks!

Yes, you need to have subdomains.

Wikidot wiki needs a full namespace of HTTP URLs for its domain. I tried to change it some time ago, but I was way too hard. So basically, if you need more than one wiki you need more than one domain, which means usually a wildcard domain.

Hope this helps.

Hi Piotr,

Thanks. We set up a wildcard domain, and wiki farm mode is working. Although we're running into some other issues, one of which I'll post shortly.

Thanks again for your help.
