URLs in a multi-site environment
In a multi-site environment, the URLs widget includes a list option to select a site. Brightspot publishes the asset to the site set in this option using the URL you provide.
As shown in the following example, you can publish an asset to multiple sites with the URLs widget. If you set Global, Brightspot publishes to all sites.
When publishing to multiple sites, you can use the same permalink across multiple sites because each site has a different domain name.
In the left example, a single permalink is set, /extraterrestrials
, for both Asteroid Hunters and Stargazers.
The resulting fully qualified URLs are unique because of the sites’ different domain names.
Site | Fully qualified URL |
---|---|
Asteroid Hunters |
http://www.aseroidhunters.com/extraterrestrials |
Stargazers |
http://www.stargazers.com/extraterrestrials |
Fully qualified URLs with the same permalinks.
Alternatively, you can set site-specific permalinks on an asset. In the following example, there are different permalinks for the Asteroid Hunters site and the Stargazers site.
Site | Fully qualified URL |
---|---|
Asteroid Hunters |
http://www.aseroidhunters.com/extraterrestrials |
Stargazers |
http://www.stargazers.com/outer-space-creatures |
Fully qualified URLs with different permalinks.
