localhost and root directory for multiple site installs So I usually have multiple sites inside of my MAMP htdocs folder which I then access through localhost:8888/sitefolder. How would this work for a Craft set up? The only way I got my initial Craft site to work was to point MAMPs document root to the public folder of the Craft site I was working on. But this seems pretty messy if I was to be working on multiple Craft sites at once. Surely I wouldn't need to keep changing my MAMP settings every time I wanted to look at another dev site?
Why not use MAMP Pro to define seperate local url's for your projects? Or use something like Virtual Host X.

This way you can define some made up url like: yourporoject.dev and point that url to the public folder of your project.
