I am currently working on a site at the moment that requires multiple domains to be available and each domain needs to deliver a different language version of the website.
For this reason I have chosen ExpressionEngine and the Multi Site Manager. However I am having trouble getting it initially setup, and I am having trouble understanding the user guide. The user guide talks about setting up directories in the root of my site, but i dont understand how that helps my multi-domain setup or how I tell the system that the directory ‘french’ is for the .fr domain.
If anyone could point in the direction of some resources or explain what I need to be doing that cover how to setup a multi-domain site on ExpressionEngine that would be brilliant.
I am using EE 2.1.0 and MSM 2.0.
Kind Regards

My understanding of the process is that I would have for exmaple a french version of my site, and in my EE install at the root of the folder structure I would have a ‘fr’ folder that would represent my french site, in that folder I would have the root index.php, and in there I would set various variable like…
$assign_to_config['site_url'] = 'http://www.domain.fr';
instead of domain.com
