net/fr/
This tuturial for help you to have only one joomla folder installation for many websites. 1- Choose one folder for joomla files: In your Control Panel (CPanel), enter to Filemanager and create one folder to be used in all your websites: In this tuturial I call it joomla. Unzip the Joomla files in this folder /joomla 2- defines.php Create this file /joomla/defines.php
<?php // No direct access. defined('_JEXEC') or die; define('JPATH_BASE', dirname(__FILE__)); $parts = explode(DS, JPATH_BASE); //Defines. define('JPATH_ROOT',implode(DS, $parts)); include_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/configuration/sites.php'; $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; $site = $sites[$host]; define('JPATH_SITE',JPATH_ROOT); define('JPATH_CONFIGURATION',JPATH_ROOT . '/configuration/'.$site); define('JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR',JPATH_ROOT.DS.'administrator'); define('JPATH_LIBRARIES',JPATH_ROOT.DS.'libraries'); define('JPATH_PLUGINS',JPATH_ROOT.DS.'plugins' ); define('JPATH_INSTALLATION',JPATH_ROOT.DS.'installation'); define('JPATH_THEMES',JPATH_BASE.DS.'templates'); define('JPATH_CACHE',JPATH_BASE.DS.'cache'); define('JPATH_MANIFESTS',JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR.DS.'manifests'); define('_JDEFINES', 'anezi');

3- Configuration folder Create this folder /joomla/configuration This folder will contain the configuration file for each website. Create a folder for each website. Here I have two websites, so I need two folders: /joomla/configuration/promotionsociale.com /joomla/configuration/new.anezi.net 4- Configuration file You need to create a configuration file for each website, here I need two files:

/joomla/configuration/promotionsociale.com/configuration.php /joomla/configuration/new.anezi.net/configuration.php Each one contains:

<?php class JConfig { public $offline = \"0\"; public $offline_message = \"OFFLINE MESSAGE\"; public $sitename = \"THE NAME OF THE WEBSITE\"; public $editor = \"tinymce\"; public $list_limit = \"25\"; public $access = \"1\"; public $debug = \"0\"; public $debug_lang = \"0\"; public $dbtype = \"mysqli\"; // DATABASE TYPE public $host = \"DATABASE HOST NAME\"; public $user = \"DATABASE USERNAME\"; public $password = \"DATABASE PASSWORD\"; public $db = \"DATABASE NAME\"; public $dbprefix = \"jos_\"; // PREFIX public $live_site = \"\"; public $secret = \"9Xq1DBbaEfog7TmX\"; public $gzip = \"0\"; public $error_reporting = \"-1\"; public $helpurl = \"http://help.joomla.org/proxy/index.php?option=com_help&keyref=Help\". \"{major}{minor}:{keyref}\"; public $ftp_host = \"127.0.0.1\"; public $ftp_port = \"21\"; public $ftp_user = \"\"; public $ftp_pass = \"\"; public $ftp_root = \"\"; public $ftp_enable = \"0\"; public $offset = \"UTC\"; public $offset_user = \"UTC\"; public $mailer = \"mail\"; public $mailfrom = \"YOUR EMAIL\"; public $fromname = \"SITE NAME\"; public $sendmail = \"/usr/sbin/sendmail\"; public $smtpauth = \"0\"; public $smtpuser = \"SMTP USERNAME\"; public $smtppass = \"SMTP PASSWORD\"; public $smtphost = \"SMTP HOST\"; public $smtpsecure = \"none\"; public $smtpport = \"25\"; public $caching = \"0\"; public $cache_handler = \"file\"; public $cachetime = \"15\"; public $MetaDesc = \"SITE DESCRIPTION\"; public $MetaKeys = \"SITE KEYWORDS\"; public $MetaAuthor = \"1\"; public $sef = \"1\"; public $sef_rewrite = \"1\"; public $sef_suffix = \"0\"; public $unicodeslugs = \"1\"; public $feed_limit = \"10\"; public $log_path = \"PATH TO YOUR WEBSITE/joomla/logs\"; public $tmp_path = \"PATH TO YOUR WEBSITE/joomla/tmp\"; public $lifetime = \"15\"; public $session_handler = \"database\";

public $MetaRights = \"2011 All rights reserved\"; public $sitename_pagetitles = \"1\"; public $force_ssl = \"0\"; public $feed_email = \"author\"; public $cookie_domain = \"\"; public $cookie_path = \"\"; public $MetaTitle = \"1\"; }

You need to change the parameters for each web site. 5- Liste of web sites file You need to create a file which contains the list of host names of each web site: /joomla/configuration/sites.php In my case, this file contains:
<?php $sites["new.anezi.net"] = \"new.anezi.net\"; $sites["www.new.anezi.net"] = \"new.anezi.net\"; $sites["promotionsociale.com"] = \"promotionsociale.com\"; $sites["www.promotionsociale.com"] = \"promotionsociale.com\";

Each host name needs a line:

$sites[$HOST_NAME] = $folder_name;

After that you can use the same extensions, templates, modules, plugins for all your websites, and you can do updates easily. I used it for 6 websites.
