Sharing plugin data across multiple sites, WITHOUT Multisite

    Greetings! I’m looking for a way to take plugin data and push it to three separate websites, without having to use Multisite. Basically, I’ll have one site that displays all the plugin data (it’s real estate search listings), and two other sites, each of which will display filtered listings of the same data. So the “parent” site will show everything, but the other two “child” sites will each show filtered content that applies only to them.

    I’m building these sites in the Genesis framework, using AgentPress and AgentPress Listings. I really don’t want to use Multisite because the three sites will be managed independently. Also, it seems to be a bit overkill, though I’m willing to be convinced. ??

    So what’s the best practice for something like this?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Hi,

    I’ll take the other route, of pulling data from main site.
    On the main site, where the plugin is active, you can setup some sort of api, which accepts variables and generates filtered data( i.e filtered listings ) accordingly.
    Then on the other 2 sites, you can call the api, and display the output.

    That’s my programmer self talking. I am not sure if it helps you much.

    That would certainly streamline the process, for sure. I’m not much of a programmer, but I get the concept of what you’re saying, anyway. I think I need to experiment a little!
