And now for some great news.
Alex at Neatorama.com enlisted my help to customize and install WP Hive so that he can provide some niche and specialty blogs in addition to his main site. So, I created a new version of WP Hive that features fully-functioning Subdirectory Sites and Single-Sign-On across the sites in the Hive – read about it here. Neatorama’s first site using WP Hive is the Neatorama Spotlight, which quite frankly looks awesome.
So, now I’m busy packaging up these new WP Hive features and merging in a a few more items currently being worked on. I’ll be releasing all of this as the next version of WP Hive, coming out in the near future.
As previously mentioned, WP Hive’s licensing model will change with the next release. Stay tuned to see how you can get in on the ground-floor and receive 50% off WP Hive Pro for life and help to fund this release, all future releases, support services, new add-ons, and much much more!

The next release for WP Hive is currently under development with a release date sighted for the near future.
Core Improvements:
* Vastly improved Subdirectory sites, now using Apache’s Mod-Rewrite functionality.
* Option to use former redirect / cookie method for subdirectory sites (if Apache is not supported).
* API to facilitate development of Add-Ons
* Compatibility with some Database Caching plugins
Premier Add-On Modules:
* Quick Installer – Allows a new site to be set up with just a few clicks, or to copy an existing site.
* Single Sign-On – Allows users to remain logged in when traversing sites in the Hive.
* Unknown Root Redirector – Handles some unique subdirectory installs where a site is not installed in the root.
With this release, there will be a *NEW* licensing model:
* The core features of WP Hive will remain available through the WordPress Plugin Repository.
* The Support Forums and the Premier Add-On Modules will be available through this site only with the purchase of a WP Hive Pro Subscription.
There are more details to follow about the WP Hive Pro Subscription. Stay tuned to find out how you can get yours for less than half the regular price!!
