====== How to link sites together ======

In this example we will link two sites together (we'll use fictitious ''site 1'' and ''site 2'' for the purpose of the example):

=== Step by step ===

{{:te3:network_tut2.png?nolink|}}
{{:te3:tut_step_1.png?nolink|}} Login into the TE3 [[te3:admin_panel|admin interface]] on both ''site1.com'' and ''site2.com'' and navigate to the "Network" menu on both sites.

{{:te3:tut_step_2.png?nolink|}} Click {{:te3:add_button.png?nolink|}} ''Manage sites'' button and open ''Manage sites'' pop-up window on ''site1.com''.

{{:te3:tut_step_3.png?nolink|}} Click {{:te3:add_button.png?nolink|}} button to add a new record. \\ \\ 
{{:te3:network_tut7.png?nolink|}}
{{:te3:tut_step_4.png?nolink|}} Enter ''Title'' for the site you're adding. 

{{:te3:tut_step_5.png?nolink|}} Enter Login URL for ''site2.com'': ''<nowiki>http://www.site2.com/your_te3_directory/index.php</nowiki>''

{{:te3:tut_step_6.png?nolink|}} Enter security key from ''site2.com''. Security key can be found in the “Manage sites” window on ''site2.com''.

{{:te3:tut_step_7.png?nolink|}} Click on the {{:te3:button_save.png?nolink|}} button. If ''site2.com'' has been added successfully, it will automatically get loaded in "Network" stats table:

After ''site2.com'' has been successfully added to ''site1.com'', you have to repeat the procedure on ''site2.com'' (and add ''site1.com''), or use the alternative method, described below: \\ \\ 

===== Synchronize your network =====

The above mentioned procedure could prove time-consuming if you wish to **link multiple sites**. The alternative method is to simply synchronize your network: 

=== Step by step ===

{{:te3:network_tut5.png?nolink|}}
{{:te3:tut_step_1.png?nolink|}} Close “Manage sites” menu on ''site1''.

{{:te3:tut_step_2.png?nolink|}} Check box ''site2'' in the Action column of the [[te3:network|Network]] menu. 

{{:te3:tut_step_3.png?nolink|}} [[te3:mass_edit|Mass edit panel]] will automatically slide-up from the bottom - click on ''Sync sites'' button and ''site1'' will be added to ''site2''.
