Multiple Wordpress Blogs on a Domain - wordpress

I have a custom PHP/MySQL e-commerce site at domain.com.
I have multiple Wordpress blogs that I would like to have the following URL structure:
domain.com/blog-one/
domain.com/blog-two/
domain.com/blog-three/
domain.com/blog-four/
Each of the these blogs are completely independent of the others. Each have their own theme, content, database, etc...
Is this possible?
Even if it is possible, am I asking for potential issues having these set up as sub-folders and not sub-domains?
Thanks
Brett

Why not use WPMU set to a folder structure? The ecommerce site can be the default 'blog' at the root and the other blogs would have the structure you want from above. Also you would have a mush easier time maintianing each since they would share the same base code, plugins, etc, while having separate themes and content for each one.

This should be fine. I currently have two Wordpress blogs in two different folders.

Yes yo can have multiple WordPress blogs on a single Domain.
Before install multiple WP review each answer posted by other. You can have better solution then installing multiple WP.

Install wordpress on subdomains

I need some help with wordpress. I have got a wordpress on my main domain and I would like to use another wordpress on my subdomains with the same theme, plugins, blog pages and posts but different links in my blog posts. I want to know how I can change the links in my blog posts for the main domain and the subdomains?
Do I need to create a subdirectory folder and a different database name for each subdomain and do I also need to copy the wordpress files from the main domain to the subddirectories folder so I could be able to create the username and password for the subdomains and then login in the wordpress for each subdomain to change the links in the blog posts?
I want you to understand that I want to use the main domain and subdomains to use the same theme, same plugins, same blog posts and same pages but the links in the blog posts have to be different, because I am going to use different traffic sources on each subdomain to track for clicks and sales, example: my main domain will be use for google traffic, the blog subdomain is for facebook and the other subdomain is for easyhits4u. I can track the clicks and sales for google and other traffic sources because the links in the blog posts for the main domain and subdomains would not be the same.
If I use the same links in the blog posts for the main domain and the subdomains, I would not know how many clicks and sales I would get from each traffic source I use and I would not know where the clicks and sales are coming from. That is why I want to use it seperate so I can track it easy.
To go a little further about the comment of #Sysix :
As far as I know, Wordpress Multisite allow you to have one folder that hold all of your websites. Your websites url can be subdomains or subfolders based (but this one not need to have a real subfolder, it's only about the url)
subdomain.example.com
example.com/subdomain
At my last work, the php developper made a plugin or something that allow you to have different urls for each site of the network.
example.com
example2.com
etc.
(I'm gonna search some informations about it, if you are interested in)
Websites are handled with the database only, and if you take a look at the wordpress database after you have create a new site in the network, you will get new tables wp_posts, wp_meta etc. with a number after them that is related to the site id.
So i think that the best way for you is to make one website, create all the post, the pages, and when it's done, duplicate it in a new site in the network.
You can use the plugin in the link below to duplicate a site of your network.
https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-clone-duplicator/
Just a warning : I know that this way it could works, but I also know there some conditions to make it works great. I can't remember exactly why but I seem to recall that you can't easily duplicate the main website of the Network. There was a workaround to do it but I don't remember exactly what was the issue, and how to resolved it.
I'm gonna search and test some stuff right now, so this answer is not definitive but it could get you on the way. I will edit it if i find or remember some important thing.
Sorry for this answer that is not really an answer, but in comment it was not possible to write all this ... Also if I said nonsense, please correct me, and I will edit the post as well.

transferring wordpress blog posts from one blog to other including images

I want to move all the blog posts from one wordpress installation to other, I know about the Import/Export option but that does not transfer images, I need to transfer the images.
Please ideas would be helpful
This answer from the Wordpress Forum outlines a good way to do this:
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/migrating-blog-images-to-brand-new-wordpress-site-database
In short, all of your images live in wp-content/uploads. You'll need to combine the uploads folder from your old installation with the uploads folder in the new one, and then change the image URLs within the posts themselves.
It's a bit of a pain, and definitely would be a nice-to-have for them to include images in future versions of the import/export function.

Any suggestions would be very helpful
Thanks in advance
You can use the multisite feature of Wordpress. See http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

using wordpress plugins in magento possible?

I just had a little doubt..
can i use wordpress inside Magento CMS..... I mean can I able to install wordpress plugins in magento... The reason iam asking about Magento because, Iam gonna use magento templates and besides I also need to use wordpress plugins in it.. I need BOTH..
So, is this possible..?
While my research, I found some links, BUT still iam not clear on this..
here are some links I found:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/magento-wordpress-integration/
https://www.x.com/devzone/articles/magento-part-4-integrating-magento-and-wordpress-using-fishpig-extension
So, can anyone pls clarify on this..?
Answer:no. You can't use WordPress plugins, which are specifically made for WordPress (and based on its framework) directly in Magento.
No, you can't use WordPress plugins with Magento. They have wildly different architectures.
The integration articles you linked to are talking about using WordPress and Magento together on the same website.
You could theoretically write a plug-in for one that also manipulates the database used by the other, but that is likely a custom job, not something you can just go download somewhere.
If you want to use various Wordpress plugins inside Magento, short answer, as mentioned, is no.
With those link that you provide, you can achieve the following:
With wordpress plugin (link that you provided) you can have yourwordpress.com and then install Magento inside a folder, so Magento store would be available. for example, in yourwordpress.com/magentostore/ and you can easily display any Magento block(top links, categories, layered navigation block etc.) from your store in you Wordpress site.
With Magento plugin (I'd go with FishPig http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/wordpress-integration.html) you can have opposite: yourmagentostore.com and than Wordpress blog/site inside blog folder of your Magento installation yourmagentostore.com/wordpressblog/ And there you'd be able to display footer and header of Magento in your wordpress site and display, for example, the latest blog post in Magento
agentoHope this help!
i think its impossible...because they have different backend architecture

Website with 2 separate WordPress blogs

I have a website, which runs an integrated wordpress blog, the wordpress was installed by my hosting company and it was a one click install. I then went into my FTP and took all the files from the original style and edited it to look like my website and still function. this is all well and good.
However, I would like to run another page on a separate wordpress blog (so there is basically two seperate archiving systems in place as one of the pages is a blog, and the other is articles which are produced monthly).
is there anyway to do this with the one click install, for example through the WP admin Control panel?
Thanks for your help in advance.
You can use Wordpress MU (Multisite) to accomplish this or just install another Wordpress instance.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
Are the two instances you want running on the same domain? Different domains?
In regards to the one click install from your web host, I'm not sure which web host it is or if there are any options for this on there.
Please clarify if you have any further issues. :)
Yes you can use two blogs by the two methods
Install wordpress on SubDomain like site.domain.com
Install wordpress on SubDirectories like domain.com/site
And then you can use both of your site in one another according to your needs and requirements ...
