• Mind you: this is a WPMU setup that’s been running swimmingly for years. And I also have a brand new setup that is also experiencing this problem – the result of which is losing a client.

    When I attempt to go to the admin area for a mapped domain, it redirects to the home page for that domain. Here is an example:

    http://dragonflyeye.net <- this is the main domain. You can get to the login screen no problem, and I can tell you that logging in works fine as well.

    http://badassthursday.rocks <- this is the mapped domain at which I cannot access the admin area.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hey, Ron. Sorry I didn’t get back to this post. I’m experiencing even more weirdness.

    Well, there have been numerous updates to the plugin and of course to WordPress. But in terms of my settings for Domain Mapping, I’ve not changed a thing. There have been some redirects setup for CPTs, but no major changes to my VirtualHost file (I keep those directives in VH rather than .htaccess).

    Now when I setup a new blog with a custom domain, the homepage works fine, but all links off that page link back to dragonflyeye.net/thisblogsubdir/the-blog-post

    Wait. For some reason, disabling remote login seems to work. Unchecking the “Redirect administration pages to site’s original domain (remote login disabled if this redirect is disabled)” checkbox solved the problem.

    I guess I thought those worked the other way? customdomain.com/wp-admin would work if those boxes were checked? Guess not..
