    Hello.

    I've been asked to add a micro-site to an existing Genesis powered site. As budget is an issue, I need to do this in the easiest/quickest way possible.

    Should I look at just doing a multisite installation (I've never used multisite before), or is there another option I should consider, for example, using custom templates and a unique nav?

    The current site uses the Outreach Pro theme. The micro-site will have slightly different styling than the parent site but we could cut down on the work by re-using the current child theme.

    Hope this makes sense and thanks for any input.

    The micro-site's URL will be: http://PARENTSITE.com/help

    Hi, chacha,

    This works very well: http://themeover.com/

    They have a free Lite version that can be tested - all styles are separate from the actual child theme. It uses the child theme but doesn't change it directly.
