Sorry about that broken link. I reorganized my categories a while back and forgot to check that the link works still. I suppose the best way would be to not keep the script in the blosxom folder, but it really is more convenient this way. Anyways the new link is here

This is the vhost plugin for blosxom. It is based on the isp plugin by Rael Dornfest. This plugin is intended to allow the user to have several different weblogs on the same host, in different directories, but using different vhosts. This plugin requires a certain amount of configuration on the part of the sysadmin. The sysadmin will need to set up the vhosts in the apache configuration. In addition, the plugin needs to be editted to have the configuration variables set.

The vhost plugin is configured with a hash variable that associates a vhost with an array of 2 directories. The first directory is the users $datadir and the second is the $plugin_state_dir. There is an example in the script that you can follow.

This version of the plugin supports setting the $blosxom::datadir as well as the $blosxom::plugin_state_dir for each user.

The plugin is available here
