Just to keep you informed:
When I created a new subsite, the theme displayed correctly in that subsite.
Hence I deleted the previous created ones (seeing they were empty) and started from scratch.
All is fine now.

Sorry.
I cannot follow.
when I follow this path network admin / sites / i have the option new sites or edit sites.
where did you see “edit any subsite?”

hello,

looks like we are in different timezones.
Unfortunately, I have no idea where you did this, could you pls explain more Fuzzie?
Did you follow these guidelines from the codex?

Istenu: this is a new install for me, we have several xhtml sites running and this is my first go at wordpress but obviously, I’m not doing a good job.

subdirectory: https://184.173.234.94/~corr/suppliers/
main: https://184.173.234.94/~corr/

Did not work! ??

I had no plugin’s activated on the main site, in one of the subdirectories I had equally no plugin activated and in the other subdirectory I had Shopp activated.
I disactivated shopp, switched back to Twenty Eleven… same issue.
The theme I was using is called Dynamix from themeforest, but seeing I also have it on twenty Eleven it cannot be theme related… can it?

No, it is showing below the footer, no matter which theme I tried (including the Twenty Eleven one…
so it is a string of links below the end of the footer, there should be nothing at all there.

Thank you!
you are write, I used subfolders…

I checked the htaccess content, it is the content from the subfolder example which i took from the codex:

# BEGIN WordPress
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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# END WordPress

I checked all the steps I did again to create it & watched some videos on youtube regarding this but honestly cannot see anything where I went wrong.

Getting desperate…

Hello dgilmour,

maybe I have not used the right words, I am new at wordpress.
I created a multisite using subdirectories, all is set up, I see individual dashboards for each “child site” (I called it subdomain before).
All the child sites show a theme error, below the footer one can see the tring of text I copied above.
On the “Parent site”, the theme works fine however.

Not sure if I am making myself clear…
