Manage Multiple WordPress Site Installs in GoHighLevel

If you are organizing client work in tools like ClickUp and need a simple way to host more than one WordPress site for a single client, GoHighLevel makes this possible with multiple WordPress installs under the same sub-account. This guide explains how the feature works, what to expect, and how to switch between different sites efficiently.

Overview of Multiple WordPress Installs in GoHighLevel

Within a single sub-account, you can create and manage several hosted WordPress sites. Each site is treated as an independent install that can be accessed directly from your account. All of these sites are hosted within the same GoHighLevel environment, but they function as separate WordPress installations.

This is especially helpful when you manage:

• Multiple brands for one client
• Staging and production sites
• Regional or language-specific websites

Each WordPress site you add operates independently, with its own settings, content, and plugins, while still being managed centrally through GoHighLevel.

How Multiple GoHighLevel WordPress Installs Work

When you add another WordPress site to a sub-account, GoHighLevel creates a distinct WordPress environment tied to that same sub-account. You can then move between these sites from the sub-account without needing separate hosting panels or complex DNS setups.

The key behavior to understand is that each install is unique. This means:

• Each site has its own admin login area.
• Content and themes are not shared between installs.
• Updates and configurations are managed per site.

All of this is handled through the WordPress section inside your sub-account so that administration stays simple.

Benefits of Using GoHighLevel for Multiple WordPress Sites

Hosting multiple WordPress sites under one sub-account in GoHighLevel offers a streamlined workflow for agencies, freelancers, and consultants. Some of the main advantages include:

• Central management: Keep all related sites under one client sub-account.
• Simplified access: Quickly switch from one WordPress install to another.
• Reduced complexity: No need to juggle different hosting dashboards.

This setup is particularly effective for agencies following structured processes, similar to those outlined by digital strategy firms like Consultevo, where multiple web properties per client are common.

Step-by-Step: Adding Sites Under a GoHighLevel Sub-Account

While the interface may evolve, the overall flow of adding multiple WordPress installs in GoHighLevel remains consistent. Below is a general process to follow inside a sub-account.

Step 1: Open the GoHighLevel Sub-Account

1. Log into your main GoHighLevel account.
2. Navigate to the client or brand sub-account where you want multiple sites.
3. Ensure you are in the correct sub-account before proceeding, as all WordPress installs will be tied to it.

Step 2: Access the WordPress Area

1. In the sub-account sidebar, locate the section dedicated to WordPress.
2. Open the WordPress management screen where existing installs are listed.
3. Review any current sites already created for that sub-account.

This area is where you can see and manage all existing WordPress installs related to the sub-account.

Step 3: Add a New WordPress Install in GoHighLevel

1. Look for an option such as Add Site or New WordPress Install within the WordPress section.
2. Click the button to begin creating a new hosted WordPress site.
3. Provide any requested details, such as site name or basic configuration settings.

Once created, the new install appears alongside any other sites under the same sub-account, all within your GoHighLevel dashboard.

Step 4: Set Up Domains and Basic Settings

1. After the new install is created, configure the domain or subdomain you want assigned to that specific site.
2. Apply SSL or other security settings from within the available options.
3. Confirm that the domain correctly points to the new hosted site once propagation is complete.

Each WordPress install can have its own distinct domain, which allows you to maintain clear separation between brands or environments.

Switching Between WordPress Installs in GoHighLevel

Managing more than one hosted site requires quick switching. GoHighLevel supports this directly from the WordPress area of a sub-account.

How to Switch Between Installs

1. Open the sub-account where the sites are installed.
2. Navigate to the WordPress management section.
3. Review the list of installs associated with this sub-account.
4. Select the specific site you want to manage by clicking the appropriate control, such as Manage or Open WordPress.

From there you can log into the WordPress admin dashboard for that particular install, manage plugins, update themes, and adjust settings without affecting the other sites in the same GoHighLevel sub-account.

Best Practices for Managing Multiple GoHighLevel WordPress Sites

To maintain clarity and efficiency when working with several installs, consider these best practices:

• Use clear naming conventions: Include brand, region, or environment (for example, “Client A – Main Site” and “Client A – Staging”).
• Keep logins organized: Store WordPress admin credentials in a password manager or project management tool.
• Separate staging and production: Use one install for testing and another for live traffic when needed.
• Monitor updates per site: Because each install is separate, apply updates thoughtfully on each one.

These practices help you prevent confusion, especially when multiple team members are accessing the same sub-account in GoHighLevel.

Troubleshooting and Reference for GoHighLevel WordPress Installs

If you encounter issues creating or managing multiple WordPress installs, review configuration details within the sub-account and ensure your domains are pointing correctly. Additionally, refer to the official documentation for accurate, up-to-date instructions and interface screenshots.
