@jnashhawkins Thank you for the inpute.

Yes, I actually have 3 sites on my FTP in 3 directories. Two of those sites have multisites.

What do you mean by CP? Sorry for the ignorance. My CP in my database? Or on my multisite area?

@mazifur
As Davood stated you can find/change your password in the database if you can access that.

Also for all WordPress sites you can add /wp-admin at the end of your site name to get to the backend login screen. For example: https://den-care.co.uk/wp-admin

Here you can click on the “Lost Your Password?” link and recover it if it is linked to an e-mail you use.

@jnashhawkins
Very cool. This was the next thing on my list of things to do for our site since it has a slow CDN startup.

I have looked into CloudFlare and really appreciate their 1.1.1.1 app for iPhones. I will look into these things you have mentioned. Thank you.

I finally got the images to work!

From your suggestion @jnashhawkins I went again into the .htaccess file and inputted this code for WordPress 3.0 through 3.4+:

# 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

From this site: https://www.ads-software.com/support/article/multisite-network-administration/#htaccess-and-mod-rewrite

The images load faster than I’ve ever seen them load before. I must have reconfigured the .htaccess file while updating things breaking this instantly.

What I learned:
– Make Backups of everything.
– Don’t use cache/speedup saving plugins if you don’t know what you’re doing.
– Ask for help always.

I appreciate your time and thinking on this and hope someone in the future can benefit from this post as well. Thanks guys.

Yes, I have changed to many themes many times, and just tested Twenty Nineteen with no images. I used Shop Isle because it didn’t look horrible without images. On my page, you can see I have used my mdpdance.com WordPress to direct link some images.

Thank you for your input.

The thing is, I check my FTP and the files I upload do upload to my /wp-content/blogs.dir/9/files/2019/08 folder. They just don’t show in WordPress (thumbs or images). They link to that 404 error page.
I thought I figured it out by copying another URL Path from one of my working multisites, but that did not work. The working multisite link has this: /home/content/23/9314323/html/wpgahd1/wp-content/uploads
I figured if I added the “/home/content/23/9314323/html” that it would work.

This page mentioned the following:
This is a change from Multisite 3.0-3.4.2, where images of subsites were stored in /wp-content/blogs.dir/ and were shown in https://example.com/files/ and https://example.com/sitename/files and so on. If you started with a Multisite install older than 3.5, it is not an error if your images show with the URL of /files/.

I’ve been going down so many rabbit holes. It’s refreshing that maybe someone knows something about this.

Have you tried the following: “Did you activate the plugin? In which mode? (From Dashboard > WooCommerce > Settings > Woo Extra Options)” Then choose the options there and save. See if that works.

Contacted WooCommerce and they will be the client I will be using. If anyone else knows of another client that is cheaper, please share. Thanks!

Exactly what I needed to do (option 2 from my original post).

Thank you for the help, Ipstenu. I’m sure you get sick of helping so many people. I appreciate the time you take out of your day to help us.

I set them up as SubDirectories. Not SubFolders. I deleted the Domain Mapping Plugin from my site.

So if I understand you correctly, you’re saying I should set up subdomains in GoDaddy’s settings for “members.mdpdance.com”? I have setup WildCards for my domain currently (the “*” thing).

Also, before Thursday everything was working fine on my multisite. Must have been something they changed at Godaddy recently.

You’re not crazy. I have the exact same problem. The issue started last Thursday (9/6).

I’ve been attempting everything lately, including the mapping option and just stumbled upon your resolution before reading this post.

I’m still hesitant about creating a subdomain manually, but here it goes! Good luck!

Thank you Ipstenu.
This resolved my problems. I can now edit multi sites by doing what you said.

And thank you Pippin for trying to help.

I setup manually. I am using FileZilla to edit and upload my files.

Only if I revert my .htaccess and wp-config files to what they were before.

I’m hunting online and learning that the problem may rely inside my .htaccess coding.

Currently the code in my “.htaccess” is:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mdpdance.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mdpdance.com/$1 [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I’ve added these lines:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mdpdance.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.mdpdance.com/$1 [R=301,L]

I added them because of this: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/14383/multisite-non-www-domain-redirects-to-sign-up

But still no go.
