This is fixed by removing plugin named: “Google Maps in Posts” an old plugin…

Agree – not working with multisite.

I spoke too soon thinking I was fixed – newly created subdir site, theme not loading. ?? a dern firefox cache issue… won’t refresh, other browsers are fine.

Thanks andrea_r – changing out the code in my .htaccess to what you have fixed my troubles as well. Suggest this gets looked at for updates to wp3. This is the code given in network setup instructions (which didn’t work)

# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

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

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

# END WordPress

Your answer could help others when they search for this trouble. Don’t be selfish:)

More on modifying a theme: What I am looking for is a way to have 3 lines of text under the enlarged image.
With theme #1
Currently the “Caption” field is used to caption the thumbnail, and the “Title” field is used to populate the text that shows under the enlarged image (the “Title” field does not support multi lines.

I know the styling of the frame would have to grow a little on the bottom to hold the extra lines.
The text would have to come from a different field that allows for multi lines like caption field allows <br /> tag – or it looks like the “Description” field supports multiple lines.

and – how to remove the “image 1 of 4” display…

I changed my needs to keep using this plugin…

When you did a fresh install, did you use an entirely new empty database?

Yes – used a “simple-scripts” install to setup a completely fresh install.
theory- could this be happening because this site was originally setup as a sub-domain and aliased to the url? I really don’t have the background to grasp all that’s involved here.

fresh install of 2.9.2, checked that all working, did the upgrade to 3.RC3 – again, all checked fine, then started the steps to enable multisite and got same message about old;-which it isn’t… made the above change to false and went through setup, created network, all seemed fine, created some sites (they show up in super admin) but they do not show up as a site, in super admin and selecting “backend” for a site, the dashboard doesn’t load either –
uhg ;(

just check (this happened to me and looks like to you also)

I copied and pasted define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true); from the install instructions, somewhere along the way fancy quotes were substituted – so try deleting all the ‘ and reentering that character from your keyboard.

Thanks andrea_r – I specifically emptied only wp_site and no longer am blocked from proceeding with the setup – but am getting this message

Because your install is not new, the sites in your WordPress network must use sub-domains. The main site in a sub-directory install will need to use a modified permalink structure, potentially breaking existing links.

which again points me away from using sub directories rather than sub domains – I think I should read up some more before continuing or at least start a new topic as I have drifted this one.

I was thinking there are specific tables for the network setup – not all the table. ?

But sometimes I want to exclude colorbox from working – wp gallery doesn’t give me an obvious place to insert a class.

FAQ- Add the CSS class “colorbox-off” to the image you want to exclude.
jQuery Colorbox does not add the colorbox CSS class to images that already contain the CSS class “colorbox-off”.

for instance can i have the gallery type grouping but when clicking the image not do the colorbox thing but treat as normal link. I’m probably misunderstanding how this can be done.

so – if I understand now – using wp built in gallery has no way to do this. correct?

I believe this problem has been corrected with the latest wordpress 2.9.1-beta1 – I wonder if others will confirm that?
