2 wordpress blogs with 1 users table and 1 login

  • Install wordpress at sitename.com
  • Setup multisite
  • Create a new site at /wordpress1/
  • Create a new site at /wordpress2/
  • Install Buddypress plugin
  • Activate buddypress on /wordpress2/ ( not network wide, just wordpress2 )
  • Hey presto you have exactly what you want without the nightmarish usertable situation

Problems you will face with the login using a shared user table:

  • The usertable isn’t the only shared table
  • Roles and capabilities are intimately tied into the usertable, you now have 2 of these, where there should only be 1
  • Upgrading everything will be a maintenance nightmare
  • A lot of plugins will hate the setup you want

All of this is avoided by using multisite
