Can't use multisite if main site is more than 1 month old?

It’s only a check, since the subfolder setup stuffs a /blog/ in the permalink of the main blog.

you want to do the work to override it? We’ve gone over it plenty here in the forum. ??

I read that adding this to my mandigo functions.php code overides, but I do not know where to place it since I don’t know anything about coding.

< code removed – please use pastebin >

It has absolutely nothing to do with your theme or adding code to a functions file. really.

Set up the network to start & take what it gives you.
do not create new blogs, do not stress over the subdomains.

edit the config file one more time – change subdomains true to false.

Now you have a subfolder install.

But there’s the /blog in the permalink put in there by the feature (note NOT THE THEME).

go to Super Admin -> Sites. edit the main site. Find the fields where it stuffs in /blog and remove that bit. Save.

you’re done.

(I shoudl probably write a whole post about this…)

Holy Crapola Andrea I think my noobiness got your directions. My images were missing though until I jumpstarted my plugins again (nextgen)

then got
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

with SEO plugin needing to be restarted.
But now it states,
“WordPress 3.0.1 is available! Please update now.”

When I already had 3.0.1.
Should I re-update it again?

I have not updated yet but added a site to practice.
https://salvamento.org/juayua/ but something is wrong. I can’t even log in. At least I think I got the network installed right and thanks for your help.

Known problem for some people. contact your webhost, tell them you made htaccess changes & they are not being read correctly.

Icdsoft is “checking on this
I don’t know if I am doing pastebin right. Here is my current htaccess
https://pastebin.com/embed_iframe.php?i=78Qw5aKy

Well they say I need to paste it as
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^blog(.*)$ mysitedotorg/$1 [L,R=301]

# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

# END WordPress

They then add,

To be able to advise further, please elaborate on the problems you are having and on the expected functionality of the rewrite rules you have in place.

Not sure what to tell them since I don’t speak Klingon/programming language.

Well they fixed it somehow, and I don’t know if the fix will last forever..

The page at https://salvamento.org/juayua/ is not rendered correctly because the browser cannot load the theme files. The files are located in the /wp-content/themes/twentyten/ directory, however, the page uses relative links, thus the browser tries to load the theme files from /juayua/content/themes/twentyten/ (the blog directory) . The multisite rewrite rules solve that problem, however, it seems you are not using them but the normal rewrite rules of WordPress.

We changed your rewrite rules with the following multisite rewrites which take into account that the wp-content, wp-admin and wp-includes directories are not located in the same directory as the blog:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

It means you had the wrong stuff in there & they fixed it.

Kudos to them for actually understanding. ??

yes, icdsoft has been great. I also think they knew I was posting here and want to look good *)
