multisite in premium
-
(first post) Hi, I have the same concern as here: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/multisite-on-wordpresscom-1?replies=2
…but I don’t understand the answer. I’m making a site at webdevtestsite.wordpress.com, and upgraded to Premium because I thought I could customise this and subsequent sites, like the one I’m doing at linguisticandculturaldiversityinagedcare.wordpress.com
…but the second site’s font and CSS customisations won’t stick, and it keeps asking me to upgrade to Premium. I’ve already done that for this user ID… I’m a bit lost.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The WordPress.com Premium Plan is a per-site Upgrade. if you’d like to utilize its features, you will need to re-purchase it for additional sites.
If you have additional questions, please let us know.

Oh, okay thanks for that clarification.
It’s a bit disappointing though. I thought that the ‘Premiumness’ would be attached to my WordPress author ID, allowing customisation of up to five sites… not sure where I got that idea from, but I was sure during the research stage of this endeavour that I’d seen that somewhere.Moving on, I’m afraid can’t justify $100 a year on a two page temporary site, so is it possible to make it a sub-site to my premium one? Can I run multiple menus, and per-page customisation on the smaller site, so that the two (sites) don’t cross paths?

There’s not really a way to setup multiple, non-connected sites on one WordPress.com URL.
You can have multiple menus with customized visibility by relying on Custom Menu Widgets instead of your theme’s menu locations.
Similarly, the two sites will be sharing the same Posts feed, but you could split them up by carefully applying Categories and adding the correct Category Pages to your disparate menus.
But the two sites will always be sharing the same URL and site title, so they will definitely appear connected.

AH, thanks for that. That might suit me actually. The sites are related, in that they’re all the output of a single Research Centre, so group of customised sub menus sitting under the single Centre URL would be fine.
Now to look up ‘WordPress Post Catagories’…Thanks.
