• Hello,

    So I accidentally deleted the WildCard for my Multi-Site Network. I wasn’t too stressed as I know that everything is kept in the DB.

    So I re-setup the wildcard on my hosting account. Re-installed Multi-Site and i see my old sites there, but when I click on it I get the whole “Oops! Google Chrome could not find” page.

    When I re-installed multi-site, it recognized that there was already an older network which is fine because that’s the one I need to reconnect.

    Here are some things you may need to help me out.

    It’s on subdomains and here is my .htcaccess file.

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [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).*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    It’s yoru DNS.

    Check to see if it’s resolving (you can look at whatsmydns.com) and if not, you may have to wait a day until it cacthes back up.

    After further investigation. When I go to Network Admin –> Sites:

    It usually lists the sites and you can click the link on each site. Well instead it’s just forward slashes on where it should display the name of each site.

    What could I possibly do to fix this?

    Thanks

    You mean ALL your sites are listed with just a / ?

    Can you screenshot that? Deleting wildcards is a server issue, not WP.

    To answer this question, you need to change SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL back to true in your wp-config.php file. All multisite installs default to false. This is why you’re seeing / for all entries.

    define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true);
