Bad URLs of the Network Admin interface

    I am having Multisite WP (Sub-domains based) installation on blogs.example.com (for ex.). Both DNS A-records for example.com and https://www.example.com go however to another IP different than the IP of blogs.example.com.

    Since I want to create and support sub-domains (i.e. site1.example.com, site2.example.com, etc.) for my organization I choose this settings:

    /** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
define('VHOST', 'yes');
$base = '/';
define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'example.com' );
define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
define('SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1);
define('BLOGID_CURRENT_SITE', '1' );

    Unfortunately since the last WP version and admin bar changes the “Network Admin” interface has this address:

    https://example.com/wp-admin/network

    which is NOT accessible, … well I can edit the address manually then works, but adding for example new sites still not and try to access (post the data to):

    https://example.com/wp-signup.php?new=example.com
    while it should be blogs.example.com.

    Until now I was happy with the current setup, but I stacked with creating new sites already coz of these problems.

  • You cannot install multisite in blogs.example.com and have new blogs be site1.example.com, site2.example.com.

    Hi Andrea,
    What I want is to support somehow multisites based on our domain example.com as site1.example.com, site2.example.com while having untouched https://www.example.com or https://example.com which belong to another department. Until now I did this and was OK, but after the latest updates got the mentioned problems.

    Until now I did this and was OK

    How, though?

    because this was not built and and was unsupported.

    The only way I can think of woudl be to fudge it with domainmapping.

    haha, something like this ??
    The story begins much earlier than WPMU. We had few WP single sites, all of them sub-domain based on example.com. Once WPMU appeared I got very exited to have a chance to unite them, as well as my faithful users. I had to handle with a situation where example.com and blogs.example.com are on different hosts. Honestly I am now surprised to hear that my case is so unusual.
    Well at this time the service is very popular and currently we host 46 sites. It would be really great if we have somehow solution in the future. Please keep in mind or case.
    God bless you! The WP is simply great!
