update: all subdirectories get thrown off including wp-admin
They should be pointing to mydomain.com/site/files/ not images.
Did you change them?
I don’t think i did, what happens is for some reason the whole site tries to access wp-admin from the actual sub directory. even if they tried to access their admin panel it wont because the admin panel is not in their subdirectory when they are logged in. unless i have my .htaccess file setup wront this is what it lookes like
# 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
all my images and and files get pointed to thier subdirectory. that is my issue in lamens terms i guess. how do i fix that? do my users have access to the wp-admin

The … what now?
You make a subdir blog domain.com/sitename
You go to domain.com/sitename/wp-admin to access the dash
That’s how it’s supposed to work.
okay that does work but no images pop up when i go to that.. i just have a bunch of content… and what should be the content inside of my index.html file in my root folder
There isn’t an index.html file.
/sitename/ isn’t a real folder (and if you made one, delete it), it’s virtual.
Images not popping up, however, suggests a htaccess issue. What’s in yours?
# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]\
# END WordPress
That’s the one for SubDOMAINS. Which you are not using if your site is domain.com/subsite.
You want the subfolder one from here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Multisite_Network_Administration#.htaccess_and_Mod_Rewrite
you are a genius. something so simple became so puzzling. thank you so much 🙂
