Subsites are a part of your website that can have its own menu, theme, custom CSS or anything else you want.

Subsites can be defined in a few manners:

  • Marking individual nodes as belonging to the subsite.
  • All pages in the subsite menu belong to the section.
  • Defining paths that belong to a the section. This is done in the same way block visibility works. So you can use PHP too!

Subsites can have:

  • their own page template: page-subsites-{subsite-id} or page-subsites-{subsite-slug-name}.tpl.php;
  • their own CSS file;
  • their own theme, different from the default theme;
  • their own menu.

Subsites can be:

  • a condition in Context module;
  • used to define block visibility.

That's all? Nope! Themers and module writers can react differently for each subsite using subsites_get_current and subsites_get.

Remark! Each path/node can have only one subsite. If multiple subsites' conditions apply for the path, the subsite with the lowest weight is the active one.
