    Hi this methid doesn't work for me as I'm on shared hosting
    http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/13711?replies=8

    So I tried to inspire from this one:

    It seems to work for Wordpress Mu except the Admin UI is messy.

    Anyone tried ?

    Use a multi site plugin. Really. That's what gives you the UI.

    What I want is to have multiple blogs for each domain, not just one blog per domain: I think that multi site plugin only does that, or did I misunderstand ?

    If I misunderstand can you give me the precise link ?

    Thanks.

    Yep, the multi site plugins do what you want.

    Just tried it by reading doc here http://www.jerseyconnect.net/development/multisite-faq/ but utterly confusing, have added a site in panel but when accessing the domain it only shows up directory content.

    Seems powerfull but not for me I'm too idiot :)

    "but when accessing the domain it only shows up directory content."

    You have to park your second domain on top of your MU install. No plugin can do that for you. :)

    Thank you you're right ;) But I think I can't do that on shared hosting service can I ?

    Sure you can. As long as they allow you multiple domains on one web account. What host are you on?
