    Just wanted to get some feedback from the community before we undertake this. The plan is to use a single installation of MODX to serve up approximately 10 separate sites for a media company. The sites will all use the same template but different stylesheets, sharing some content but not all content. Has anyone ran into any issues using this many contexts on one installation? The most we've used was two so I am a little concerned about running into some limit halfway into building the sites.

      It really depends on implementation details how well your Contexts will scale, but I am aware of production sites with more than 150 Contexts (separate domains), sharing assets and Elements across them all. So it is definitely possible and there are no limits inherent in simply having that many Contexts or domains being served by the site, other than bandwidth and server resources to handle all the traffic...

        Thanks for your feedback Jason. I am definitely more comfortable knowing it has been done before. The site will hopefully be hosted on a standalone server and bandwidth will be 20Mbps+, I am trying to get it set up to ideal MODX specs but we'll see what we're given.
