Many of our clients are asking how to install wordpress-mu with sub-domains support. here is a very simple way for it in easy steps.

Step:1 Download Latest version of WordPress-MU from WordPress-MU website . Create a database with MySQL database wizard available in cPanel and note down the databasename, username and password.

Step-2 You can upload the files in 2ways.One way is you can upload the downloaded archive directly to your hosting space and can uncompress there another way is to extract the files in to a folder in your computer and FTP them to your hosting space. The upload should be done only in to /public_html/ folder (this is default folder).All the files and folders like 'wp-admin' etc., should be in root folder that is /publich_html/ folder.

Step-3 Make the necessary files writable and proceed with installation by pointing your browser to  domain.Select the option "Sub domains (like blog1.example.com)" as shown in image below

Now fill the database details of the MySQL database we created earlier in Step-1.Leave the Server address untocued (by default it will be yourdomain.com). Fill your blog title and email and click on install.If you get error saying that .htaccess file already exists,Open the file manager from control panel and delete the already existing .htaccess file and realod the page it should show your administrator username and admin password note them.

Step-4 Subdomains will not work by default you need to add a subdomain to make all the subdomains work.Go to the 'subdomains' from cpanel and add a subdomain with host as '*' and direcotry as /public_html/.

So héroehost just like every other company had to find a new VPS Control Panel and we looked at different products like vePortal what we did use for a though months testing it's features and easy of use for our customers but no many liked it and it was restrict on the backend for our staff. We then looked at FluidVM was does look like a great product but if we didn't like it we couldn't return back as it uses it's own architecture that other VPS Control Panels didn't support.

Now we come to the good part we found a product called SolusVM was is pretty new in the market and is still adding features month by month so at first we was a little untrusted with the company and the product as we wanted something that our customers loved.

We have been testing SolusVM for the past month or so with our customers and after great feedback we got from them we rolled SolusVM out to everyone in our customer base a though weeks ago.

Here are some features of SolusVM,

• Serial Console
• Bandwidth Monitor
• Reboot/Shutdown
• TUN/TAP Support
• Manage multiple VPS under one account
• Reinstall OS

and plenty more juicy features.

I hope new and existing customers will like the switch over to SolusVM.

If you have any questions then feel free to comment or contact our sales team.
