How involved would it be to make Events domain-sensitive? Right now the only way to separate events by domain, as I see it, would be to replicate Event categories for each domain, which would be pretty clumsy. (Nodes could then be filtered by Category.)

A separate iCal feed for each domain would make the most sense, of course. Or perhaps I'm missing something?

Here's the deal: I'm creating event calendars using iCal Feed Parser, which as of today seems to have a working version - see http://drupal.org/node/1643468 - and I need to populate the Event Calendar with items from both the distributed and external sites. So iCal feed + Node Processor is the way to go and a calendar that's exclusively Civi won't do the trick. A separate iCal feed for each domain would be suh-weet!

Thoughts? Thanks for any ideas!

Thanks, Donald - that's exactly the information I was looking for.

Now that I know the scope of the project, let me see what I can do, although it might have to wait until we deploy Phase I (in about a month) so interested parties can see what we're up to. Thanks much!

Thanks, Eileen - this is really helpful.

One question and one observation:

The question: the multilevel 'multisite' module - is that a separate module or something included in the Civi distro? If the former, is it for both Drupal 6 and 7?

And the observation:

I would mark "campaign" as desirable for domain segregation - this also ties in to your observation regarding contribution pages. In my current use case (which is dealing with different county-level officeholders), having this information available to all and sundry would cause a lot of problems (politically - not technically.)

Desired workflow would be for, say, Legislator Joe Blow to have his own campaigns, events and contribution pages that would not be viewable by other legislators on the distributed site.

My workaround right now will be to have all this managed on the county level, where only the "master" site (in my case, the county level) would have access to all the information. Having a segregated Campaign > Events > Contribution workflow would allow for a much greater degree of self-management on the part of individual site admins and a much lighter workload for the master site admin. Just sayin'.

Thank, Eileen - rock on!
