• Hi there,

    I’m running the latest WP and have followed the instructions (including Otto’s install advice) on installing the WP MU domain mapping plug-in.

    Two problems:

    1) After setting the domain mapping settings once, they will not change again. I can’t de-select or change the IP address – if I press Save, it goes back to what I originally put in there.

    2) For the life of me, although I’ve pointed the DNS servers successfully toward it (and it shows when I go to the domain in my browser), I cannot figure out how to add a new site. When I go to the New Site page, it insists that any new site will be a subdomain of the current domain that I use WP for.

    Frustrated and hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

    Hi there,

    1) Here is the content of my .htaccess:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    
    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ - [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]
    
    # END WordPress
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^imagitude.ca$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.imagitude.ca$
    RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/imagitude\.com" [R=301,L]
    
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^imagitude.net$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.imagitude.net$
    RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/imagitude\.com" [R=301,L]
    
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^imagitude.org$ [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.imagitude.org$
    RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/imagitude\.com" [R=301,L]
    
    RewriteEngine off
    <IfModule mod_suphp.c>
    	suPHP_ConfigPath /home/matt/public_html/php.ini
    	<Files php.ini>
    		order allow,deny
    		deny from all
    	</Files>
    </IfModule>

    2) I don’t know much about wildcard subdomains – they have been referred to, but not as part of any setup instructions I’ve been using.

    3) Funny you should mention this, @andrea_r – I went to my main blog to check the permalink settings (which should be “pretty”), and when I went to check via my sites archives, guess what: going to archive pages gives me a 404 now. I don’t know if this is a result of anything I’ve done in trying to setup multisite, or if this is a separate mess.

    20-1 it’s separate.

    Check if mod_rewrite is on for your server.

    BTW, you should always have WordPress’s .htaccess code at the END Of your file. Saves some load 🙂

    I’m encountering the same fist problem as stated (using version 0.5.4.1)

    1) Each time I tried change the domain mapping settings, it will not change. When I tried input the IP address and deselect some settings like turning off the remote login and redirect administration page – if I press Save, it goes back to the default settins.

    Can’t seems to update and change it. Anybody knows what seems to be problem here?

    Thank you in advance.

    As has been said before, grab the DEVELOPMENT version

    http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping.zip

    My apology. I thought the development version is similar as the present latest version when I read the changelog.

    The problem is resolved once change to the development version of domain mapping and sunrise php files.

    Thanks for the assistance.
