 * Hi,
 * I have a wordpress installation and have just enabled the multi-site functionality.
 * What I am trying to do is to have the multi-sites run under a different folder(
   slug).
 * Ex:- my primary wordpress installation is on [http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)
   
   now I want the multi-sites to be exist as:- [http://www.example.com/sites/site-1](http://www.example.com/sites/site-1)
   [http://www.example.com/sites/site-2](http://www.example.com/sites/site-2) [http://www.example.com/sites/site-3](http://www.example.com/sites/site-3)...
 * How can I have a /sites/ (or any other word) prefixed in the slug? Changing the
   permalink structure on the primary site (adding /sites to the Custom Permalink
   structure) will actually make this work, but problematically, it would result
   in addition of the /sites/ word for every post on the primary site too!
 * Looking forward to a solution
 * Thanks,
    Vik
