Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Localhost subdomain multisite redirects to production domainLeft it out of my description but not my process. After changing the URLs in the tables I mentioned above and then ran the script. The only tables it found traces of old URLs were either in wp_posts(post_content) or a few plugins like Google maps and WPForms.

In reply to: [Redirection] mass upload of redirects?I’m interested in this as well. There is an upload option but I’m not sure of the format the .csv needs to be in…

In reply to: One site in my network the Siteurl keeps changing…Hmmm, thanks for checking. Looking over my site it’s working appropriately as well. I didn’t change anything though… My Site Settings are not using the www anymore either. A few days ago I could remove the www, save, refresh the site and it would work. Then as soon as I navigated to another page within the site they would all disappear again. If I went back to Site Settings the www was back in the Siteurl. I’ll keep an eye on it and see what happens. All appears to be working currently…

In reply to: Posts are no longer showing on the homepageDid you change anything under Settings -> Reading? There is a checkbox to display posts on your frontpage or display a static page.
Ok I figured it out. Super Admin -> Sites -> Edit -> Settings tab. My assumption is that if you are using the plugin to redirect to an actual subdomain you need edit both the “Siteurl” (NOT “Site URL”) and “Home” to the domain you wish your visitors to see.
If the plugin is mapping to a completely separate domain, like my first site that is live, you just edit the “Siteurl” to the domain you wish your visitors to see.
The difference between the two threw me off and I just decided to change both on a whim. If someone wants to chime in on whether my reasoning is correct please do so.

In reply to: WordPress needs FTP access or Can't create directoryI figured it out. I started comparing account permissions of wp-content between my working multisite setup and the single install. One of the accounts was missing so I added it and gave it the same permissions and it’s working properly now. I even removed the code for
FS_METHOD
from the wp-config file and it’s still working.Forum: Plugins

In reply to: Every page is displaying postsFigured it out. Using a child theme of Soliloquy Pro from Nimbus Themes. Putting the sidebar widgets in a custom layout on my homepage doesn’t mix well with the Soliloquy Pro Popular Posts widget. It was overriding all the pages with the posts template when it was active.

In reply to: Every page is displaying postsSo it’s definitely theme related, however, it’s limited to just this site within my network. I flushed the cache on my pc and on the server (Windows environment, host our own stuff, IIS)
I created a new site and added a few pages and a few posts and the new site is working just fine. Any thoughts? Would there be anything in the database tables I could look at that would clue me in to the issue?
-EDIT-I also just cloned the problem site to a new url and the problem follows. There has to be something in the tables that will show me where the pages are pulling the post information from?

In reply to: Every page is displaying postsSwitching themes didn’t even cross my mind. I went to twentyfifteen and it was fine. I also switched to the parent theme and it’s fine as well. I’ll work on clearing those caches and see what happens from there. I’ll update in a bit.

In reply to: Every page is displaying postsThey are all up to date but should that even matter if I deactivated them and the problem still persists?

In reply to: Posts are being duplicated?After a bit more digging – really just clicking on a different page – it appears that every page has been tied to the posts instead of displaying the page content. If I go to edit the page it shows the current content in the editor but it only displays the posts…
Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Localhost Multisite setup issuesOk so this whole processed acted like it should be a lot harder than it truly was. So what I did:
-Update hosts file with new “domains.”
-Make sure you don’t have another “site” under Default Web Site as wordpress in IIS. I had to trick it here. Move the files in explorer back into the wwwroot directory, delete the “website” wordpress from IIS. Restart IIS, move the files back into the wordpress folder in explorer, make sure the Physical Path under Basic Settings for Default Web Site in IIS is still %SystemDrive%\inetpub\wwwroot\wordpress
-In IIS edit the Bindings for the Default Website. Edit the original to be your main domain and then add your additional hosts.
-Restart IIS
-Clear browser cache and cookies
-Happy dance.I hope that makes sense to everyone else out there.

In reply to: Localhost Multisite setup issuesGreat thank you. I’ll dig into those links and report back. I figure as close as I can get to the production environment the better so we’ll see how this goes!
