    Hi All,

    I have tried deploying a simple multisite instance. It works great however, I have a new requirement that deals with a multilevel subdirectory installation, which when I tried resulted in an error.

    Is there a workaround to create a multisite using multi level subdirectories? This is what I’am trying to achieve

    [MyDomain] -> main site
    [MyDomain]/seasons -> normal page/post
    [MyDomain]/seasons/winter -> sub site 1
    [MyDomain]/seasons/summer -> sub site 2
    [MyDomain]/news -> sub site 3

    Thank you!

    The main site should work. If that doesn’t work the rest won’t usually work.

    ‘Seasons’ and news should be a ‘do-able’. If not then you probably can’t have those as subsites or you have a real subdirectory in your WordPress directory named the same. You can’t have that which is why you can’t do a subdirectory based network install after the WordPress is 30 days old.

    The installer won’t allow it but you should be able to map a subdirectory still. If the subdirectory exists then Apache (or whatever web server you are running) will send that subdirectory instead of handing it off to WordPress. If your error is an Apache error then you probably have a created subdirectory issue.

    Same again with nesting. Your htaccess needs to be able to deal with the subdirectories also.
