Drupal MultiSite, multiple sites or organic groups

I am using Drupal for a project, but dont know how to best implement the following.

I have one main site with its own look and feel. I want another site with specific members of the main site. It should have its own look and feel. He must have both a public and private agreement.

What will you make of this.

Use MultiSite and share your user table Use Mutliple Sites and find a way to connect users. Use one site and use organic groups.

It seems that organic groups are the most natural to your needs, as they are designed to do what you want. Other options are workarounds to do roughly what you want.

OG is definitely the place to start. If that doesn't work, you can also try Domain Access . It focuses on building multiple Drupal sites on top of a single Drupal instance. This is a more extreme division than Organic Groups, but it has a smaller user base than OG, which could mean slower bug fixes, etc.



Multisite with a shared user table is a maintenance complexity that you probably don't need.

One simple solution would be to install the drupal cas plugin to share session and users between two drupal instances.

We did this to isolate developer actions on websites. This method helps us by avoiding side errors.
