When I use Simple Facebook Connect Plugin at my website, its Facebook Connect Widget redirects to WP-Login.php in IE9, Apple Safari 5, and Chrome 11.Currently, I have removed it. I just want my users just to login, comment, and share on my Website. I do not want them to register anywhere with my Website. I am using Google Friend Connect and it works without any settings and browser problems. I just want the same thing from Facebook Connect. Is it possible from using Simple Facebook Connect? If yes then why it is redirecting to Wp-Login.php?

Let me explain. I’ve setup sub-domains (reviews.omabc.com, news.omabc.com, als.omabc.com) and a main domain (https://www.omabc.com). I want to use single theme overall. I searched and found on WordPress Themes by copying its content and changing names to 1, 2 etc. I wanted to do this for child theme.

I was using child theme, however, they stopped working suddenly after upgrading to 3.1 and converting to multisite. I removed previous child theme (motion-child) and created again as per WordPress Articles, but it did not work either for motion nor for twenty ten. Doing what exactly has been suggested in https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes but no results. Plans are to deploy motion-child1, motion-child2, etc. but they are not working.

So, currently I am using Motion, Motion1, Motion2 aka the copy of Motion theme with different names. However, I need child themes instead of just changing the code of parent themes for all sub-domains.

Can you please just provide the code to create a child theme for Motion in multisite? Can you please tell in which situations the child theme does not show up in Appearance->Themes section even if I’d set coding correctly?

For making a Child theme, I am not giving it same name. My naming conventions are: –
Parent: motion
child: motion-child

Parent: twenty ten
child: twenty ten-child

Following the complete https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes but no results

Hi Andrea!
Sorry for late response. I was quite busy in the development of my Website. I’ve followed WordPress Child Theme Tutorial to build the child themes of Motion. It was working before updating to WordPress 3.1 and switching to Multisite. I’ve done both on single day so did not know, which step made child theme stop working. I also tried to create a child theme of Twenty Ten and wrote the mentioned code in above link to create the child theme for Twenty Ten, illustrating it below again: –

/*
Theme Name: Twenty Ten Child
Description: Child theme for the Twenty Ten theme
Author: OmABC
Template: twentyten
*/

@import url("../twentyten/style.css");

The child theme also did not show in Themes neither at Network Admin nor at Site Admin in any sub-domains. When I make a copy of Motion theme by changing its name to Motion2 then both are visible.

Recently, I updated WordPress to 3.1.1. Please help me to let my child theme working as I’ve done a lot of customizations and do not want to loose them on updating the theme. Any help will be more than appreciated.

I followed https://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/tabbed_panel/ and created Vertical Tabbed Panels. I coded it in Aptana Studio, an open source HTML editor and it worked in a normal HTML page. However, when I integrated it at my WordPress Website in a Widget in Footer Left; it does not work as expected. It is showing bullets as we’ve discussed above and the TabbedPannelContent comes below the tab options on right hand side.

To turn off the bullets, I directly inserted the code in footer.php. However, the first li lines taking complete space and their content is coming afterwards.

Take a look at my website – https://www.omabc.com and see the vertical tabs at the bottom. Currently, the code is in a Widget.

Tips: Above Spry Tabbed Panel shows how you can create the tabbed pannels simply. You can see my code in using ‘View Source Option’ in any browser, ‘View Selection Source’ in Firefox, or ‘Inspect Element’ in Google Chrome.

Any help will be appreciated.

Child theme is not showing up at all neither in Network Admin nor in Site Admin. I also created a child theme for Twenty Ten but the same for it.

I just need same theme overall but a bit different content like meta tag for Google or Yahoo search verification in header.php. I referred to https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/same-theme-for-all-multi-site?replies=7 and created copies of same theme with different name like motion, motion2, motion3; uploaded to theme directory. This worked.

However, thanks Andrea_r for your reply. I have read your posts on WordPress Support and I am fan of yours. If you find something to enable child theme in WordPress Multisite in your free time, then please tell.

Hi ELowe!

The problem can be solved with clean installation of wordpress but this will take a lot of time. Please try below steps before the same.

I hope you have removed amendments to get WordPress into multisite already. However, I request you to check again whether you have removed following things properly or not.
1. Remove all the lines added to wp-config.php
define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
define( ‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false );
$base = ‘/’;
define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘localhost’ );
define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’ );
define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 );
2. Change the ‘true’ option of following line to ‘false’
define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
3. Remove the two fields added to the users table that are multisite-only (deleted and spam columns).
4. Remove the following tables in database (prefixed by your DB prefix which is generally wp_):
1 wp_blogs
2 wp_blog_versions
3 wp_registration_log
4 wp_site
5 wp_sitemeta
6 wp_signups
7 wp_sitecategories (if you have global terms enabled)

If yes, then
1. download the wordpress 3.1 setup zip file.
2. Extract it and edit wp-config-sample.php in the same way to install a fresh wordpress website.
3. delete the .htaccess file.
4. Try to login in wordpress dashboard.
5. Go to Settings>Permalinks and regenerate the .htaccess file.

If still it does not work then you can go for clean installation of WordPress. I hope you know how to retrieve your posts from the earlier database.

Hi OneVoice!

There should be a home link on each website. You can modify its href URL to point to Network Home Page.

You will notice following code in the header.php file of themes: –
NOTE: PLEASE TAKE BACKUP OF YOUR THEME AND HEADER.PHP BEFORE THIS EDITING.

<h1>
<a>" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>">
<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
</a></h1>

Change <?php bloginfo('url'); ?> with the URL of your network home page. Note: you can do the theme editing in the Network Admin panel only. Once you have changed the theme this will be applicable to all the sites running on that theme.

Hi Elowe!
The installation of WordPress Multisite always suggest to backup wp-config.php and .htaccess before converting into Multisite. If you have backed up then restore it. If not then following are the lines of default .htaccess file of a WordPress blog.

# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-d
RewriteRule ./index.php [L]
#END WordPress

Take a look at https://www.digit-8.com/security-tips/hacked-and-default-htaccess-file-in-wordpress/ for more information. Steps:
1. Backup Current file to a safe location.
2. Copy it and remove its content as shown above or in the Website referred.
3. Upload to the root folder.
4. Right click the file in FTP and set the permissions to 644.
5. Open Your Website and a post
6. Come back and set the permissions to 666.

Please inform whether it works or not.
