multi mini sites?

posts: 1

Hi, is it possible with tikiwiki to do the following:
main category; artists
sub categories: A, B, C, D, etc.
sub-sub categories under subcategory A: Alexander, Amherst, Adela ext.
sub-sub catgeroeis under subcategory B: Baldwin, bella, Birdy etc.
and so on.
I need to structure an artist community website and allow each artist to edit their own pages only.
Each artist will have 7 preset pages intro, bio, exhibit, links, contact, reviews, publications but each artist also needs to have the ability to add unlimited pages in their own mini site i.e.
each user artist should be able to handle their own mini site with edit, add, delete pages and add links to their own nav menu.

I used eZpublish, where all this was possible - but eZ publish is incredibly slow and clunky.
So am looking for a better cms.

I read through the entire forum and could not really find an accurate answer to these questions.

We have 940 artists currently, that I need to port to a new cms, with their mini websites.
Greatly appreciate feedback on this.

Hi!

This is fun!

Use theme control center & categories.

With theme control center, you can assign a distinct theme to each artist. (Which is very cool!)

You can assign permissions to categories. Give Anonymous "view category" and that artist's group "admin category". (And put artist's editor in that group)

When a page is created, make sure to save it with the right category, so it gets the theme and the permissions.

About the menu: there are different ways to approach this. Show me the current site (or how you want it to look) and I will suggest something. You could use menu generator or menu page module.

Cool thing with Tiki: Each artist could have a blog, a discussion forum, calendar, etc
