Hiya,

Did you make any changes to the URLs in your WP General settings ? If yes, you will need to change that in your MySQL Db or “hack” the wp-config file as mentioned here.

I hope that helps.

Hiya,

The below links should help

Hello telfordsteve,

Thanks for your post.

The site by the looks is nice ?? Great work !

The text paragraphs, if justified would look better of-course.

If your theme supports footer widgets, adding some cool widgets like twitter would be an addon.

Having a blog page and adding new contents would attract search engines as freshness is the key ??

Here is a nice article on SEO : https://wpmu.org/wordpress-seo-tips/

I hope that helps.

Just like Dr. Martin Cooper inventing mobile phone, and a lot other companies adding new features.

@gina : Nice share, I hope that would make him realize.

@jason : Thanks for the nice words dear.

Joining the discussion so as I do not miss any updates on this one ??

You may try the lite version free here https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/wordpress-chat-plugin-lite

offering a full pay version is not completely free and Open

I agree to the fact, however ordering a full version not only gives you access to all the powers of this fantastic plugin, but also it gives you access to the super cool and helpful support forums @wpmudev

They say it right, its just like having your own developer ??

Nothing apart from the below

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]

No for this install it never worked, however for my other multisite installs, they are working fine. and I made no mistakes while I installed these networks. Same steps and settings were followed

Added the below in wp-config.php as advised in the multisite setup

define( 'MULTISITE', true );
define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true );
$base = '/';
define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'xxxxx.com' );
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );

Nups,

Disabled all of them. No redirect plugis as well.. So right now, no plugins at all.

Yeah, you are right, the second was meant to be https://www.mainsite.com/wp-activate…

and how would I check whether what my mainsite Id is. I do not remember making any changes like that.

And just to do some R&D, I removed the subsite name from the link, that way I was able to activate the subsite, but after that the password being sent to me, is not working.

Please advise

Cheers

Yes Already tried.

The only reason I could figure out is that the activation e-mail contains the the subdomain link eg https://www.subsite.mainsite.com/wp-activate.php/XXXXXX
instead of the main site link eg https://www.subsite.mainsite.com/wp-activate.php/XXXXXX

When I remove the subsite name from that link and try without that, I am able to activate that site…

Any suggestions on how to check why the activation email contains the subsite link

Cheers
