Pro, with PayFlow

Sorted it out, for anyone looking in the future:

Create Parent categories, and place all of your categories within the Parent categories.

Add a dropdown list using wp_dropdown_categories and/or an actual list using wp_list_categories, then use the child_of parameter to limit what categories show up in each list.

I sorted it out. Going to outline the steps I took so hopefully it helps someone else struggling with Dreamhost!!

Assuming https://www.mainsite.com is your main site, with the second site being at https://www.mainsite.com/parkedsite, with a domain of https://www.parkedsite.com; also assuming you’ve already got the MU Domain Mapping plugin installed and set up:

1. Point https://www.parkedsite.com’s A name to the IP of https://www.mainsite.com
2. In Dreamhost, add https://www.parkedsite.com as a domain, mirror https://www.mainsite.com, AND park https://www.parkedsite.com (no one seems to have included this in ANY tutorials I’ve seen; I only found it after days of Googling, in ONE comment somewhere, so I tried it and it worked!)
3. In WP Admin panel, add https://www.parkeddomain.com to the site you want it to point to.

What exactly is parking it “into [my] WP install”? I’ve found some guides on how to do so with a cPanel, which, unfortunately, Dreamhost doesn’t use.

I parked the domain, but I’m guessing the parking I did isn’t what you’re referring to, since now the domain just shows a placeholder page (https://www.hurricanedemo.com)

Thank you so much! Worked like a charm. Awesome plugin, and I very much appreciate your responsiveness.
