Wordpress: How to use one installation for multiple Domains

wp-20-button-trans Wordpress: How to use one installation for multiple DomainsWhen it comes to an open source blogging software, Wordpress builds the ultimative tool for me. If you get used to Wordpress you will love it and use it at other projects as well. I have 7 wordpress sites und it gets difficult to keep all of them updated, since so many new features get out everytime. The best way to keep track of all wordpress sites would be Wordpress MU, but it is kind of to big scaled for most of us. Now, which other solutions may help? I found a note by lunabyte in the wordpress forums how to use the standard Wordpress installation with multiple Domains. I hope you will enjoy it and report your experiences with it.

If you have worked out your own idea, please please keep us informed so we can improve this knowte by lunabyte to an a-class how-to!

I have taken some weeks research on the web and got lucky to find everywhere some hints, but most of them where too complicated or too old. This solution interfaces Wordpress Blog, PHPBB Forum and 4Images Galery System

CSS - Javascript: Dropdown-Menüs mit Pfeil komplett formartieren

Nach langer Suche im Netz, um eine Möglichkeit Dropdown-Menüs wirkungsvoll in Szene zu setzen zu können, kam ich immer nur auf die Möglichkeiten zum Beispiel die Hintergrundfarben oder die Schrift anzupassen, wie folgendes Beispiel zeigt:

Beispiel für ein einfaches Dropdownmenü (Quelle links: Webmaster Resource).
Trotz kleinerer Anpassungen bleibt der langweilige graue (bzw. hier blaue) Pfeil und bei längeren Menüs kommen die unformartierbaren Scrollbalken.

Manchmal reicht dies jedoch nicht aus und größere Anpassungen müssen gemacht werden. Und es ist möglich!!
