Support for Multisite?

[doodirock]

Are there any examples (or is it possible) to use Faust with a multisite? Our goal would be to serve many different sites with very similar backend requirements on several different unique frontend Next.js apps on different domains. This is more ideal instead of creating multiple WP installs just to have almost identical fields, API structure etc.

Is this possible currently or would there be issues with things like previews, etc.

Hey @doodirock, given your use case, Faust can absolutely be used within a WordPress multisite!

If the Faust.js WordPress plugin (and WPGraphQL) are network activated within your multisite, each individual 'blog' within the network can be coupled to a single front-end application. It's essentially 'business as usual' for configuring your site, as Faust does not currently have any multisite-specific features.

Hope that helps!

Thats amazing! How would this work with different preview URLS for each of those sites? I assume each multisite would need its own preview setting to be able to manage previews.

[josephfusco]

Correct, each site within the multisite network would assign it's own front-end URL within the plugin settings which are scoped to that site, as each site would have it's own GraphQL endpoint.

The WordPress site managing the content for faustjs.org is actually a single site within a multisite network! We are using a subdirectory multisite, but Faust.js should also work as expected with a subdomain setup.

Great news Thanks so much for the work your team is doing to modernize WP. Cheers!
