[resolved] Multisite Login Url questions (5 posts)

    I have set up multisite (sub-directory) with domain-mapping. All good there. Not sure if I need a multinetwork to accomplish what I would like or how to describe it if it is just a plugin I would need.

    Here goes:

    I have mysite.com, my2ndsite.com, client1.com and client2.com
    Client2 will have multiple sites (Client2secondsite.com, client2thirdsite.com, etc). I would like both Client1 and Client2 to have login urls that match their domain mapping. Currently I am getting the url for mysite.com for all login pages and also in the emails sent for lost password, new user, etc. I changed wp-login.php to remove any network_site_url and change to site_url, but still am getting mysite.com in the email information. I would like all links/page addresses to reflect the mapped domain. Is this possible? My main concern is for client2. Perhaps a multi-network where client2.com is the 2nd network? Just trying to wrap my brain around this set up before I get too far. Any direction is appreciated.

    Unless client2secondsite.com needs to be a subdomain of client2.com (i.e. second.client2.com), you can just make them a second site on your network.

    But you wouldn't want to map a mapping, that sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

    No, I don't need a subdomain. But I do want the admin panel to be client2.com/wp-admin/ not mysite.com/client2/wp-admin/. How do I accomplish this?

    You map the domain.

    It has an option to use client2.com/wp-admin instead of mainsite.com/client2/wp-admin :)

    Thanks. I found the magic combo of selections to make it happen. :)
