I have reason to believe the htaccess file for my site is not right. I have gone to the Permalinks page under settings & have changed the value & saved the page. There was no change made.
Am I just not waiting long enough?

How do I get WP Multisite to regenerate the .htaccess file? (15 posts)

It doesn't work like that on MultiSite. You have to edit it manually.
What's in your .htaccess for MultiSite? We can help you :)

Here it is:
RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /worship/ #uploaded files RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.* RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L] # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$ RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule . - [L] RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L] RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L] RewriteRule . index.php [L] <IfModule mod_security.c> <Files async-upload.php> SecFilterEngine Off SecFilterScanPOST Off </Files> </IfModule>The reason I believe this is incorrect is because I'm using the NexGen Gallery plugin & none of the images in it are displaying. They used to work fine in the past. When I click on one of the images, the URL that displays has the full physical path to the file:
http://churchonhigherground.org/worship/wp-content/blogs.dir/files/gallery_name/image.jpg
This gives me a 404 error. But if I edit that url & change it to:
http://churchonhigherground.org/worship/files/gallery_name/image.jpg
I get the picture.
BTW I'm not using subdomains. Each blog is in it's own folder.
Another weird thing. I went to the Super-Admin menu & clicked on Sites, then I clicked the edit link for the primary blog. I didn't make any changes, but I did click on Update Options. I got a 404 error after I did that.
Thanks for your help

http://churchonhigherground.org/worship/wp-content/blogs.dir/files/gallery_name/image.jpg should be http://churchonhigherground.org/worship/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/gallery_name/image.jpg (where 1 is the blog number...)
But. Your .htaccess looks like the old one for WPMU.
Try this.
# BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /worship/ 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] # END WordPress <IfModule mod_security.c> <Files async-upload.php> SecFilterEngine Off SecFilterScanPOST Off </Files> </IfModule> -
Posted 1 year ago #I tried it & still no joy. The website was created a year ago using WPMU, so that's probably where the .htaccess file came from.
I originally set every blog up to use its own virtual folder. Are you telling me that Multisite doesn't support that configuration any more?
Tony

No, WordPress DOES support the subfolders :) It's just yours is ... pointing weirdly.
If you look on your server, you should see the files in
worship/wp-content/blogs.dir/<blog number>/files/Are they there?
-
Posted 1 year ago #Yes, they're all there:
/blogs.dir/1/files/...
/blogs.dir/5/files/...and others.
But I'm still not seeing the images with the links generated by NexGen

But I'm still not seeing the images with the links generated by NexGen
then that's a plugin issue.

Posted 1 year ago #I figured it was; I just wanted to make sure the htaccess was OK, and apparently it wasn't. I have posted a request for help for the plugin in the Plugins and Hacks forum. I haven't heard back yet.
Is there any sense in blowing away the wp-config.php file & going through the initial install process again? I've kept that file unchanged when I deleted all of the files & uploaded from a new download of WP 3.0.1.
By the way, is the version of WP that you get when you click on the "Download 3.0.1" button Multisite? I'm seeing the Super-Admin menu in the admin pages, just not sure if suddenly I have the right software running.
thanks

Yep :)

There's no longer two codebases - not since 3.0. ;)

It is a plugin issue. NextGen Gallery has difficulties with the blogs.dir structure.

Posted 1 year ago #Andreas:
So you're saying that if I disable NextGen Gallery, the problem will go away?
I've pretty much given up on this problem. I republished the links to the videos. Instead of http://.../sermons/..., they use http://.../wp-content/blogs.dir/5/... It works, but it's ugly.

Yeah he is. If you look for that plugin name + multisite or wpmu, you'll see it consistently has issues.

Posted 1 year ago #I'll give that a shot tonight. Can't hurt.
Thanks
