    I put it right below define( "WP_USE_MULTIPLE_DB", false );

    I moved it below the unique keys, still not showing.

    *peers* Huh, I don’t have it on my MU->3.0 upgrade either.

    Well. Put in the htaccess stuff I have you, and that’ll take care of the rewrite rules it mentioned. If the rest is working then yay! And I’ll poke around and see if this needs a trac or if I’m just being extra thick headed!

    @ipstenu -0 if they upgrade from MU, they don’t need the network rewrites rules. not all of ’em anyway, as they have most of them already.

    I’ll be documenting the one they do need. It’s just an edit of an exciting one.

    Just a note for thsoe playing the home game: If you are on MU, DO NOT follow the instructions for enabling a network – you already have one!

    Right, which occurred to me later on. That said, WHY doesn’t the network menu show up? 🙂 In my back brain, it’s should.

    I did an upgrade of MU to MS by just overlaying the 3.0 files and running the upgrade. Seemed to work just fine.

    The network menu never showed up for me. I just took out the multisite code and the code suggested for htaccess. Still no network menu. I have the Super Admin menu.

    The code I gave you for the .htaccess specifically addresses this line from your earlier post:

    … update your server rewrite rules to use wp-includes/ms-files.php instead.

    Without it, your uploads will wander off and get lost.

    I guess you don’t need the Network menu, but it’s still weird to me that you don’t. How else do you know what the htaccess should be?

    I don’t even know what it should mean, so I’m good. 🙂

    I deleted the blog.php file, and the message went away. I made sure the ms-files.php was present. All ‘seems’ to be OK other than not having the Network menu you’re referring to. What I have seen are network options in other places, like in activating themes and plugins. I don’t mean just in the Super Admin part, but contextually within my Dashboard.

    What I eventually want, if I’m going to get use out of multisite, is for Users to ‘subscribe’ via one site and access to others as a result.

    The network menu just shows you how to set your blog up, so it’s not like you’re missing out on anything huge. To the point that … I didn’t even notice I didn’t have it on my MU->MS site until recently 🙂

    I went through the upgrade from MU 2.9.2 to 3.0 Multisite as directed and it went ok. I am also missing the Network link in Tools and I am having some Admin link problems. In the Super Admin -> Sites area, when I try to move between site backends, the URL’s are not updating. They stay relative to whatever site backend I happen to be in. So for example, if i’m in at site1/wp-admin and I try any of the links for site2, they still lead to site1/wp-admin. I’ve checked my .htaccess and it seems to be right. Any ideas?

    What happens if you go to site2/wp-admin?

    It’s the same, whatever site I am in the backend of the admin links only lead to that site. Another example, when I am in the My Sites area, where there are links to Visit and Dashboard for each of my sites, the visit links lead to the correct URL’s, but the Dashboard links, all lead to the admin area of whatever site’s backend I am in.

    I think I’m confused.

    When you go into the backend, the links are SUPPOSED to be for that site. Each site has it’s own ‘stand alone’ admin side.

    The only part that cross-links would be the SuperAdmin parts, of which I think they all ‘act local’ until you switch blogs, either by going to Super Admin > Sites or manually going to site2/wp-admin

    All the menu links are working as expected, Appearance, Tools, etc. It’s the links between the sites’ admin areas that aren’t functioning correctly.

    If I am in Super Admin -> Sites, the link to each of my sites “Backend” leads to whatever site I am currently in. So I have 5 sites, if I’m in the backend of domain.com, the “Backend” link for each of my additional sites leads to domain.com/wp-admin, instead of domain.com/site1/wp-admin, domain.com/site2/wp-admin and so on.

    I can manually change what site I am editing by typing in the correct URL, but that will eventually become a pain as we add more sites.

    Ah, okay, good.

    And when you’re in domain.com/site2/wp-admin, the links STILL point to domain.com/wp-admin, or do they become relative?

    Also, which version of 3.0 are you on?
