 * Hi there
 * Please help me because I am going to smack my laptop. I created WP multisite,
   installed theme and few plugins, everything worked great…then 10 minutes ago,
   after W3 total cache instalation (at least I think it was problem with that because
   I installed aksimet also) I got internal server error 500. I tried disabling 
   plugins from ftp because I couldn’t login to my site through Chrome, nothing,
   then I renemed htacces and main site [http://www.apartmentslela.com](http://www.apartmentslela.com)
   appeared, but still I can’t acces other two sites [http://www.apartmentslela.com/lela1](http://www.apartmentslela.com/lela1)
   and [http://www.apartmentslela.com/lela2](http://www.apartmentslela.com/lela2)
   sites. At the beginning I got internal server error 500 there also, but now I
   am getting file not found 404 error. I uninstalled all but 3 basic plugins and
   I am 99% sure htacces is problem. I tried upload new (empty one) and go to setting
   and permalinks to save changes (htacces was still renamed) but nothing happens.
   If I rename htacces.hold into htacces I can’t reach settings and permalinks because
   I am getting internal server error at first step. Pleace help, what to do?

 * resolved (at least for now), but I will paste solution for other users:
 * Go to admin setting.
 * Click on permalink and select post name in radio button.
 * Scroll down and you will see .htacces code here like.
 *     ```
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
           RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
           RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
           RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
           RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       ```
   
 * Copy the code and paste in the .htaccess file.

 * FYI, that’s not the right htaccess for Multisite. That’s the single-site .htaccess.
