eZ Publish 4: Enterprise Web Sites Step-by-Step
An eZ publish installation can host multiple sites using something called the siteaccess system
—eZ.no site
In this chapter we will look at:
eZ Publish siteaccesses
How to create custom siteaccesses
How a custom site access will help us in development stage
Also, we will look at how to enable additional languages on our site.
To override eZ Publish's default configuration, we need to create a collection of configuration settings called siteaccess. The role of a siteaccess is to indicate to eZ which database, design, and var directory should be used for a particular context.
With siteaccess it is possible to use the same content and different designs (for example, when creating a mobile version of our site) or do the opposite (for example, managing a multilingual site where the template doesn't change but the content does).
It's also possible to create an administration siteaccess, where we can manage any kind of content, such as...
Change the font size
Change margin width
Change background colour
