I know a plugin that overrides WordPress Permalinks if that helps.

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/redirection/

Use a 301 on here for the categories you need moving, and it should override the permalinks.

I’ve used this on council websites before and found this out.

If you can provide urls I’ll have a look.

I’ve had the same problem.

I unticked remote login on the domain mapping page and that sorted it for me. (As long as your using the main domain mapping plugin.)

You seem to have a similar problem to one I have just answered.

Point all domains to the same folder.

This is the post with the full explanation: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/help-me-with-the-multisite-sub-domain?replies=2

Your wildcard subdomain should be set to the same place and the domain.

As for where the sub-site goes…well it’s virtual and it is made up like this:

Database Part:

wp_blog#_tablename

Uploads Folder:

public_html/example.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/blog#/

Everything else such as themes etc. are in the same directories as they would for the main site.

If you get stuck and want me to help, just email me a login and I’ll try my best to help.

# Ensure that Apache listens on port 80
Listen 80
<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /home/public_html/sitex
    ServerName www.xxx.com

    # Other directives here
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /home/public_html/sitey
    ServerName www.yyy.com
    ServerAlias *.yyy.com
    UseCanonicalName Off

    # Other directives here
</VirtualHost>

I haven’t done apache configuration for a while, but I would guess this might be close to it.

I would try something like: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/google-language-translator/

It may not be perfect, but it might be easier to manage.

Using multisite for something like this would mean that anytime you altered one setting, it would need to be changed on all other sites (or require some complicated plugins to copy settings).

Are you able to post or message me your domain name, so I can check your dns records are ok?

This isn’t overly specific. Are you able to paste your .htaccess and wp-config, so I can check these for you?

I think this may help: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ns-cloner-site-copier/

You should only need the free version of it. ??

If you need any help with cloning then if you can message me some login details I will help.
