How to handle multiple sites?

I also have all sites with one code only, do you have then solved this task?

for example any single user of the site can see stats about him nodes and things only about them nodes, it's very nice, to show them big advantages to be in that site.

Sorry for the delay getting back to you on this. It should be fine for your three drupal sites to look at the same AWStats data directory (DirData in the .conf files). AWStats names files from different domains differently, so there is no problem sharing the directory.

@matteoraggi: BAWstats isn't so clever as to be able to show per-user information - it is really a very straight port of betterawstats.

Please let me know if this helps or not.

Is there any plan to have separate view permissions to each site? I know, it will require to create permissions dynamically, and it is not easy. If there is no plan to include this in the module, we will probably write it, as we are planning to use this module with this function.

It is useful, but i'm not enough interested to build this module at this time, maybe from secon part of next year, who know? We'll see. If someone will develop this module I'll be happy to test it.

@tamas (#6). Bawstats uses the stripped version of the site domain $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] to find the right file. For example, if your domain is www.bstw.com or bstw.com, it will look in the data directory for files named like awstats022009.bstw.com.txt.

Your files appear to be missing the .com part.

To fix this, I would suggest that in your awstats config file (/etc/awstats/awstats.bstw.conf), you set
SiteDomain="bstw.com"

If you've done this already, I'll need to think again.

@shafter & matteoraggi: There are no such plans at the moment, and it does seem that it would be hard to create view permissions for each site. Also, would it lead to the permissions table getting very large in the case of there being many sites?

Anyway, I don't have the time to develop this myself, though I am open to patches. If you'd like to work more on this, please open a separate feature-request issue. It would also be good to define a bit more what you'd like to do.

I'm working on a "bawstats_access" module that provides a freeform list user profile field and limits the user's report access to only domains that they are configured for. I took a bit of a different approach than using roles/permissions as I'm working on a web reporting portal and need a solution that will work for hundreds of websites/customers. I should have something working this week. Would anyone be interested in testing and providing feedback?

Hello deruitern,

although I haven't time for testing at the moment, I've been emailed by someone who is interested (and possibly working on) a very similar idea, so I've pointed them in this direction. Once the code has been through a round of testing, if the concept seems to work, and the code is fairly clean and general, I'd be happy to test it myself and put bawstats_access.module in the bawstats directory.

I?m interested to test it if followed with instructions, for sure!

Sounds great! I'm a little behind schedule with some other work at the moment, but I will have a rough draft by the end of the weekend. I have a working copy, just need to clean some things up first.

Hi deruitern!

I'm also very interested in testing and/or developing a feature very similar to this. Please contact me if I can do anything in connection your module or patches. (You can also contact me using the contact possibilities of Drupal site, and I'll give you my email address.)

The cooperation between us is very welcomed.

Cheers,
Ivan

This all sounds very positive. Please do feel free to use this thread to post code to or exchange patches and give reviews &c.

Attached is a rough draft of the bawstats_access module discussed on comment #11, if anyone is still interested. When the module is enabled, any user with 'administer site statistics' and 'administer users' permissions should see a fieldset for assigning permissions on the user registration and user edit pages. Sorry for the delay.

Thanks very much for this deruitern; I'm just back from holiday, and I'll try to take a look at it later this week.

Well, my "next week" has turned into 14 years. I'm closing this, but feel free to reopen if any of you are still around! Bawstats is now just about working with Drupal 8/9/10.
