Sub-sites admin not accessible and CSS not visible after MU upgrade to 3.0

    After upgrading (automatically-prompted process) from 2.9.2 MU, to WP 3.0 (and eventually sorting the fiddly bits) i can no longer access the admin panel for sub-sites (blogs) that other users of my site have created… The CSS and theme for these blogs seem to have been disconnected somehow too and are showing plain HTML only…

    The main site: https://bagging-scotland.com/mybag/
    Example of sub-site: https://bagging-scotland.com/mybag/cullenskinky/

    I am of the ‘front-end’ variety and am now struggling to understand how this can be… i suspect it may be something to do with the automatic site-wide upgrade of all the blogs but have no way of checking because i cant log in to the admin panel.

    Can anyone help or suggest any checks i could do?

  • yes, you can have two htaccess files.

    I was just about to finish writing another entry here, when, as if by magic, it worked. Brilliant, but why?!

    Here is my final .htaccess file:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /mybag

    #uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ mybag/index.php [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*
    RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.* /wp-admin$
    # RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L]

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

    <IfModule mod_security.c>
    <Files async-upload.php>
    SecFilterEngine Off
    SecFilterScanPOST Off
    </Files>
    </IfModule>

    I have two separate files, the above one in the wordpress install and a simple redirect file in the server root.

    All is good now, but who knows why it suddenly worked… I didn’t really change anything, only attempted something and after it didnt work, i returned it to previous state and it worked! V.ODD
