• Hello group, I have a small issue I would like to get the experts review of. I had a single WordPress installation and converted it to the multisite installation so I was forced to use the sub-directory structure for the site. Here is the issue:

    Root site: gridone.us.com
    Subdomain: g1usa.gridone.us.com maps to: gridone.us
    Subdomain: g2usa.gridone.us.com maps to: gridone.co

    So the issue is this: I can go directly to the site gridone.us or gridone.co and it works fine. When I am in the Network SuperAdmin mode and I visit site it uses the URL: g1usa.gridone.us.com which then gives a DNS error that it can’t be resolved correctly. This is complicated when attempting to do the import of files (media) because it is using the link: g1usa.gridone.us.com instead of gridone.us.

    Should this simply be fixed in the settings for gridone.us by changing the root URL away from g1usa.gridone.us.com to gridone.us? Or is this more of a .htaccess issue? I am hosting with GoDaddy on this site. Thanks guys. I have posted on .htaccess for review.

  • According to this DNS Records report there are no A records for your two subdomains. You’ll need to have those in order for the domains to resolve properly.

    Patrick,
    Thanks for the quick reply. I have checked in my hosting manager and the A records do exist. Its interesting the external audit provided does not show them. I have submitted a ticket with GD to get their input on this issues. Thanks for pointing me that way, as you can imagine with everything I believe correct on our side I was looking elsewhere. I’ll update with any resolution from GoDaddy.

    Regards,

    The two subdomains aren’t resolving to an IP address. When I go to ping and traceroute the subdomains there is no response. You should contact GoDaddy and have them correctly setup the DNS records for these two subdomains.
