One Domain. Lots of Unique sites on that domain each with their own user. Can it be done?

Hi, newbie (naturally). Got to say love what I have seen of concrete5 so far (except for their theme tune intro) and hoping it is just the solution I have been looking for.

My basic issue is I have a site with a bunch of business members. I want to let them build their own websites off the back of my url. It's a free service and their will be no advertising on these sites. Anyway I think I am fine building themes for them etc but any ideas or anyone read anywhere how I would set it up so I can allow multiple users to build individual sites on an automated basis using concrete5?

Many thanks for any help!

Anything that can be done in the interface is naturally supported by code, and thus can be accessed programmatically.

I've had this on the back burner. here are some thoughts.

Create your own custom copy of the register form. You can add custom attributes (which you may need) in the dashboard.

But, you'll want to capture the event which saves the information.

In that, you can copy an existing page (which you'd likely setup as a model for each user's page), assign a URL to that, and assign attributes for at least an initial piece.

Some of the attributes you'd want to set would include allowing the only non-administrator having editing access to the page being the page owner.

That at least gets you in the ballgame.
