MultiSite .htaccess file or files placement

    I’ve only ever seen one .htaccess fIle for each WP install in my years of MultiSite installs. I rarely go into the backend. I’m not tech literate, but I am trying to learn.

    This https://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess is listing multiple places for .htaccess.
    I am confused:
    – where to place it or them if I need to
    – what is the purpose for multiple .htaccess files in a MultiSite
    (one example of a purpose would be fine)

    Thank You

    You will not have multiple .htaccess files in a wp multisite network — just one, in the root of the main domain.

    .htaccess goes in the root of the site, in the same folder as wp-config.php

    Thank you very much for responding!

    That is good to know. I’ll ignore whatever that page is referring to.
