Using multisite but the new sites can be found by the server

Don’t mess with separate domains until you’ve got basic Multisite Working ?? Cart, then horse? No no, horse then cart.

Remove the sunrise plug stuff you put in, go back to basic Multisite.

1) Subdomain or subfolder install? (are your subsites domain.com/sitename or sitename.domain.com)

2) Did you update the .htaccess and wp-config.php ?

3) What error do you get when you go to the subsite?

wow – thank you – ummm

i didnt put the sunrise folder into the file manager in c panel yet – its on my computer ready ??

i dont mind sub domain or sub folder if one is easier – but if not then i think i would prefer subfolder….

yes i have updated the .htaccess and wp-config.php files

when i click on the new site i created caveofmsyery it cant find it and this is what i find in the address bar https://www.webaddresshelp.bt.com/main?InterceptSource=0&ClientLocation=uk&ParticipantID=mg76cjr54t8kx45jjw4j4k9j5hsr5m26&FailureMode=1&SearchQuery=&FailedURI=http%3A%2F%2Fcaveofmystery.sustainablehealth.co.uk%2Fwp-admin%2F&AddInType=4&Version=2.1.8-1.90base&Referer=http%3A%2F%2Fsustainablehealth.co.uk%2F&Implementation=0

and i get this error message
Sorry, the website caveofmystery.sustainablehealth.co.uk cannot be found.

my site is sustainablehealth.co.uk

so i can create new sites and i can get into info, , users, themes settings for my new site – but i cant get on to the new site like i can my original site?

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR responding to me so quickly x x x

Okay that is not a mapped domain that is a sub-domain, and that’s okay! ??

You can’t get there because you didn’t set up sub-domains on your server, that’s all. Do you know how to add wild-card subdomains? If not, you can ask your webhost. They usually have directions.

i dont know and i don’t think that he dose either – is it easy – any chance you can explain? thank you so much x x

If your webhost doesn’t know, I’d be a little nervous in general.

We have basic directions here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Configuring_Wildcard_Subdomains

it was working a min ago- he got it working – and now weirdly its stopped working – i was busy editing pages and then suddenly i couldn’t get on to any of my new sites –

if i edited the path in the net work admin sites menu – could i have messed it all up?

i really don’t know why i edited the path – i feel such a idiot – as i have now read that editing the path can cause the site not to work – it thre any thing i can do to solve my stupit stupid mistake -i did it to both my new sites –

i tryed deleting one of them and re creating it – but it ididnt work ….

if i edited the path in the net work admin sites menu – could i have messed it all up?

*sigh* Yes.

Go into the Database and look for wp_blogs and make sure they’re corrected.

thanks
