Description
When sharing the user and usermeta table between multiple wordpress
installations using the same database, any role given to the user is only valid
for a single wordpress installation.
This plugin ensures user roles, user capabilities and user settings are
shared between the multiple installations. This is configured using a wp-config
constant.
Any role set in any of the installations will be reflected in all other
installations.
Caveats:
- Compatability with wordpress multisite is unknown
Installation
To set up multiple wordpress installations using the same database:
-
Install all wordpress installations using the same database, but using a
different $table_prefix in wp_config.For example two installations with « eng_ » and « nld_ ».
-
Designate one wordpress installation as « primary ». All other installations are
secondaryFor example the installation with the prefix « eng_ ».
-
Install and activate this plugin on all secondary wordpress installations.
In this example « nld_ ».
-
On all secondary wordpress installations configure CUSTOM_USER_TABLE and
CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE in wp-config to use the tables (users and usermeta)
of the primary installation.See below for an example
-
On all secondary wordpress installations, set SHARED_USER_TABLE_ROLES_PREFIX
to be equal to the table prefix of the primary installation.
Primary
For example the relevant wp-config settings for the primary installation would
look like:
$table_prefix = 'eng_';
Secondary
For example the relevant wp-config settings for secondary installations would
look like:
$table_prefix = 'nld_';
define('SHARED_USER_TABLE_ROLES_PREFIX', 'eng_');
define('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE', 'eng_users');
define('CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE', 'eng_usermeta');
