I am trying to setup two WordPress-sites on the same server. One is for live usage, the other is for development. Both should have completely independent Databases, so I can try some long-term upgrades on the dev site.
I want to be able to login into www.example_url.com/wp-admin/
and separate from that into www.example_url.com/dev/wp-admin/
. I can go to www.example_url.com/dev/wp-login.php
and login, but then I get redirected (and logged in) to www.example_url.com/wp-admin/
with the wrong database.
So far, I have copied the WordPress folder to example_url.com/sandbox/
, changed the wp-config.php
of the new folder, so I have independent databases and I changed /etc/httpd/conf.d/example_url.com.vhost_common
. In there I added an alias: Alias /dev "home/httpd/www.exampl_url.com/sandbox"
.
