Wordpress hosting script?

[Sander k]

If I want people to be able to register at my site for their own automated (wildcard subdomain) website, is WordPress MU what I need?
I don't seem to understand what the Multi part is of wordpress mu.

Just $6 or something for an .IM

you can use other cms with registration options. search for it.

Like which one?

Joomla, PHP-Fusion, Drupal etc

Joomla is to easy to hack, Drupal as well. I don't know PHP fusion tho.

i never make wp as multisite.
my logical think, you need to make registration form, then make the user name as user wp db and user folder. user pass as db pass.
this process also must write to wp config at each user folder.

and then your htaccess must configure to make wildcard user folder as wildcard subdomain

Well PHP-Fusion is very powerful CMS and let you to do things like you want

PHP fusion is very reminiscent to PHP Nuke which was very popular like about 10 years ago. http://www.php-fusion.co.uk Very similar setup and design.

What I would do is get the Buddypress plugin and the multi-site plugin. You are going to want users to create an account is my guess, so that's what buddypress is for. You can configure multi-site to let users choose a sub-domain OR a domain extension, such as WWW.YOURSITE.COM/DOMAINEXTENSION.
