Hello Webmasters,

I am a Wordpress fan, and I'm now building a new site and I'm not sure which CMS can achieve what I'm trying to do.

I am building a food blog network for a bunch of cities in the US, and I want to my city pages to be independently running blogs themselves. So basically...

Home Page - Its own blog with its own users, talking about Food in general
Dallas Page (child of home page) -
Its own blog with its own users
Chicago Page ..... so on and so
forth.

The web layout and design will be all the same, but just trying to achieve 25~50 independent blogs on one domain.

How can I achieve this? I'm hoping that I don't have to install Wordpress into as many subdomains that I create...

Thank you for your help in advance.

-RP

Don't really know how to formulate the title, but it should be pretty obvious from the example. More specifically, what rules do you use for naming "dependent" classes. For example, Blog is a pretty descriptive name itself, but how do I deal with posts? BlogPost or Post? Clearly, first name clearly… >>> More
