    Problem: I cannot create a viable subsite on 1 of my 2 WP MU networks.
    After I create a subsite, I cannot access the Admin because an error page comes up: err_loop “too many redirects”

    I think that this is because of how my web host put my 2 MU networks. I don’t know the correct terms, so I will describe or diagram it. One MU is inside of another. But they are not parts of the same network – the MultiSites are each a separate entity.

    MU Network 1.com is fully functional.
    MU Network 2.com main site is fine. Subsites have no CSS look and cannot get to admin.

    Directory:

    MU Network 1.com
    – MU Network 2.com (-this is a level under MU Network 1.com)
    – – cgi-bin (- -files and folders under MU Network 2.com)
    – – wp
    – – wp-admin
    – – wp-content
    – – wp-includes

    – wp-admin (-files and folders under MU Network 1.com)
    – wp-content
    – wp-includes
    -.htaccess
    – wp-config.php
    etc….

    Questions:
    1). Is this structure a problem?
    2). Why can’t I create functional subsites on MU Network 2.com?
    3). What could cause the “too many redirects”, loops, thing?

    I would greatly appreciate any input. I am not WP backend literate. Obviously. (But I am trying to learn.) Please keep that in mind if you make suggestions or ask for information.

    Thank you

  • I believe you have a structure problem. I am pretty sure that you cannot nest Network sites like that or that would be a bad structure to work with in general – ie you are asking for problems.

    A better structure would be to have the sites in separate unique folders at the same structure level and not nested.

    /example-site-1.com
    /example-site-2.com

    That is what I thought. And what I suggested to my host. They did it that way.

    Thank you so very much for responding!. You’ve saved me a lot of continued drama.

    Cheers
