    Please help me understand how to add a site and domain in Hive. Having a hard time finding what I need in documentation.

    If I have two different domains pointing to the same root site with the core wp install, say they are:

    example1.com
    example2.com

    In add new sites, if I want to create a new site for example2.com, do I --

    -- Add example2.com in the domain
    -- Leave subdirectory blank

    Will this work? I keep seeing subdomains mentioned (like subdomain.example.com) and I don't want that, I want to point http://www.example2.com to the new Hive site.

    Thanks!

    Yes, this will work.

    -- Add example2.com in the domain
    -- Put '/' for the path. (Or, if you leave it blank, it will default to '/'.

    Cheers.

    a little domain clarification may help me. there is a main site = domain.com

    the main site recently added a section called = newsection ( which is promoted as an sister site )

    when i click on the newsection link the url that comes up = newsection.domain.com

    i like this format better than the / typically used in sub-directories. with what little i've given, can you tell me what is going on with this site and can hive offer a url format like this ?
