As an experienced AnQiCMS website operations manager, I am well aware of the importance of efficient management of multiple sites for content creators and enterprises.AnQiCMS powerful multi-site management function, allowing us to easily operate multiple independent websites under a single system.Creating a child site is just the first step; how to view and access these newly created child sites smoothly is the key to ensuring smooth operation.Next, I will elaborate on this process.
Locate the newly created child site in the AnQiCMS admin interface
Firstly, you need to log in to the backend management interface of the AnQiCMS main site.After logging in successfully, find and click the 'Multi-site Management' feature item in the left navigation menu.This feature is the core entry point provided by AnQiCMS for multi-site operations.
After entering the multi-site management page, you will see a list that displays all the sub-sites that have been created in the system.This list includes the basic information of each sub-site, such as the site name, website address, etc.Here, you can easily identify the new sub-site you just created.
Access the backend management interface of the sub-site
AnQiCMS provides two main methods to access the backend management interface of the new sub-site you created, both of which are very convenient.
A direct way is to access through the multi-site management list.In the list of child sites you just viewed, there is usually a 'Access Backend' button or link next to each child site entry.Click this button, and the system will directly redirect you to the independent backend login page of this sub-site.You just need to enter the administrator account and password set when the sub-site was created to log in to its backend for content management, configuration updates, and other operations.
Another commonly used access method is to directly enter the background address in the browser address bar. The AnQiCMS background access follows a general format:你的子站点域名/system/For example, if your sub-site domain name isdev.anqicms.comthen its backend address ishttp://dev.anqicms.com/system/.You can enter this complete address in the browser and then log in using the administrator credentials of the sub-site.This approach is particularly suitable for the scenario where you want to directly access the backend of a specific sub-site without logging in to the main site first.
to access the frontend page of the sub-site
In addition to the backend management interface, accessing the frontend pages of the sub-sites is also simple. Just enter the full domain name of the new sub-site in your browser, for example,http://dev.anqicms.com/You can preview the content and layout of your child site in front of users. After ensuring that the front-end page is displayed normally, you can further publish and optimize content in the backend of the child site.
Important Notice
When viewing and accessing newly created sub-sites, there are several key points you need to be aware of to ensure everything runs smoothly:
Firstly, please make sure that your subdomain name is correctly resolved to the server, and the reverse proxy (such as Nginx or Apache configuration) on the server is also properly set up for the subdomain.If there is a problem with domain resolution or reverse proxy, you will not be able to access the sub-site through the domain.
Secondly, each sub-site has an independent administrator account and password.When creating a sub-site, you will set a completely new set of login credentials for it.Please remember this information, as it is the only way for you to access the backend of this sub-site.This ensures the independent security and management permissions of each sub-site.
Finally, AnQiCMS assigns an independent database and data storage root directory to each child site.This means that the data of each sub-site is isolated from each other and will not be confused./app/for example, the independent root directory at the beginning/app/dev_anqicms.comand a unique database name, such asdev_anqicms_comused to store the cache data and other content of the sub-site. This design ensures the stability and data security of the multi-site environment.
Common Questions and Answers (FAQ)
Q1: I created a sub-site, but I cannot access the front-end page via the domain name. How should I troubleshoot?A1: Firstly, please check if your domain name resolution is correct, ensuring that the subdomain name has pointed to your server IP address.Next, confirm that the Nginx or Apache web server on the server is configured correctly for the sub-site with the proper reverse proxy rules to direct traffic to the corresponding port of AnQiCMS.If you are using the Baota panel, please check the reverse proxy configuration and site directory in the website settings (especially the Go project or general project settings).
Q2: What should I do if I forget the administrator password for the sub-site?
Q3: Are the data of each sub-site completely independent? Will the content published on one sub-site affect other sub-sites?A3: Yes, AnQiCMS is designed with multi-site management functionality to ensure that the data of each sub-site is completely independent.When creating a sub-site, you need to configure an independent database and file storage directory for it.This means that publishing, editing, or deleting any content on a sub-site will not affect other sub-sites.Each child site has its own content, categories, tags, users, configurations, and other information.
