WordPress multisite with NGINX
WordPress multisites (also referred to as network sites) allow you to run multiple websites from the one codebase. This can reduce the management burden of having separate WordPress installations when you have similar sites.

These are the two different ways the multisite installation will work. The Sub-domains option has the sites separated by domain names, for example, site1.nginxcookbook.com and site2.nginxcookbook.com. The Sub-directories option means that the sites are separated by directories...
