I edited the wp-config.php with

define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, true );

how the .htaccess file should look like for a smooth operation. I still get 404s for the subsites. thanks!

1.
I need to install WordPress-Network on my server root, and then create a new directory to run other CMS..
(It’s okay to do the installation this way, Right?)
In this case, should I choose sub-domain or sub-directory installation?

2.
Do all new sites which are created by the network share the same database name?
(with different table-prefix maybe?)

Many thanks for your time Andrea.
I do really need suggestions from expert like you,
to configure a ‘clean’ installation, in case someday I need to move or uninstall my sites.

the other line tells wordpress that multisite is on & active.

When we turn on Network setting for multisite, there will be actually 2 lines in the wp-config.php file:

define( ‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );

I ignored copying the 2nd line thinking it’s already there, then I ran into “Warning: An existing WordPress network was detected.”

Once I added the 2nd line, it was all ok. When I visited Tools->Network option, it correctly shows, “Notice: The Network feature is already enabled. …”

Some sites mix the 2 up and one even try to correct a poster suggesting MULTISITE should be corrected WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE as if they are one. Beware.

I have an MU site that hosts bands. I’d like for each blog/band to be able to have their own registration form so that their fans can subscribe to their blog/subdomain. It would appear that WPMU 3.0.5 can only have one registration form for the parent site or root domain.

Please advise,

I installed wordpress 3.0 on one my websites and then install MU plugin and network is working fine. Now the issue is that the subdomains created gives error: Your server may not be able to connect to sites running on it. Error message: Couldn’t resolve host ”
you can check khgroup.ca (the web with all the subdomains), pumphousepub.khgroup.ca is a subdomain.
Please help!!!!

Am I going to have difficulties installing a second instance of WordPress MU outside of the root in a subfolder? I have bunch of sites running now on Worpress MU with your domain mapping tool all on their own domains. Works great and has saved countless hours. A few weeks ago during a WordPress update, we lost access to all the backends. Eventually we figured out the problem, but I’d like to split off a couple of domains to setup a test network for upgrades, new plugins, etc.

Any potential problems?

I’m new to your site but I’m already loving your tips and hacks. I’m just wondering if you can maybe address cross domain logins please? ie. user logs in to primary blog and gets redirected to their own subdomain site

Also, how to disable from subdomain admins/users from seeing primary blog’s dashboard under My Sites and getting rid of that “Create a New Site” link..

Thanks and sorry to asking too many requests…
