If you are recruiting locals to run Scottish town sites under one umbrella, nail the structure and roles first. Decide whether each town gets its own mini-site (with local editors) or a single site with town sections. A practical approach is a CMS plus a forum. WordPress Multisite lets you run many town sites with shared themes and logins; each town has its own dashboard. Enable the network, pick subdomains (e.g., inverness.yourname.scot), and grant editor rights to local volunteers.

// in wp-config.php
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

is right: a forum alone will not carry a town site. Pair it with news, events, a simple business directory, and notices. Keep the workflow light: 1 town editor, 2 volunteer moderators, and a backup admin. Use a submissions queue for events and classifieds, and publish clear house rules plus a takedown process for disputes. Start with one pilot town, document what works, then clone the setup for the next towns. asked for clarity: confirming your scope (single hub vs. many town sites) and tool choice will help others give concrete help.

Cover the essentials: make pages accessible (follow WCAG 2.1), only collect what you need and handle it lawfully (ICO guide to data protection), and apply basic security for small orgs (). For Scottish identity and trust, consider a .scot domain ().

You could do this with a forum and just let them post but it would have to have add ons such as news articles and things like that. It would also need real full time admins to look after it.
