Hi

I am trying to install the first site in a Drupal 6 multisite config. At the moment I have to access the site via a temporary URL. I have created a sites/realdomain.com subdir for my site specific modules and themes using the real domain name rather than the temporary URL. Unfortunately Drupal does not recognise the subdir as belonging to the site and only shows modules available from the sites/all/modules folder.

Is there is trick to get this to work ?

Thanks for any advice,

El B

I would also like to access a multi-site config'd website via temporary URL. This would be very helpful to ensure site is operating before switching domain DNS from old to new website.

For example:

sites/default (example-1.com)
sites/example-2.com (new website)

New site accessed via http://example-1.com/example-2 or ?

After DNS changed, site accessed via http://example-2.com

Any suggestions, ideas, pointers?

Need this also as the current sites need to remain operational until the new multi site set up is ready to launch. Any ideas?
