    So you have multisite installed in domain.com

    And you have a subsite of ‘mobile’

    Did you put that code above the WP calls?

    First, always put it above 🙂

    Second, I think it should start with

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^mobile/.*$

    It’s trickier with Multisite because it redirects things by default :/ So you’re redirecting and redirecting (and this is part of why mobile responsive themes are all the rage).

    Hi Ipstenu

    I finally got this working after a long battle with WP MU Subdomain setup (and my host not being very helpful) I was able to setup a mobi site. (mobi.domain.co.za).

    I then added the below code to my htaccess header…

    RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|&)m=0(&|$)
RewriteRule ^ - [CO=mredir:0:www.domain.co.za]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:x-wap-profile} !^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Profile}       !^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "acs|alav|alca|amoi|audi|aste|avan|benq|bird|blac|blaz|brew|cell|cldc|cmd-" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "dang|doco|eric|hipt|inno|ipaq|java|jigs|kddi|keji|leno|lg-c|lg-d|lg-g|lge-" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT}  "maui|maxo|midp|mits|mmef|mobi|mot-|moto|mwbp|nec-|newt|noki|opwv" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "palm|pana|pant|pdxg|phil|play|pluc|port|prox|qtek|qwap|sage|sams|sany" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "sch-|sec-|send|seri|sgh-|shar|sie-|siem|smal|smar|sony|sph-|symb|t-mo" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "teli|tim-|tosh|tsm-|upg1|upsi|vk-v|voda|w3cs|wap-|wapa|wapi" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "wapp|wapr|webc|winw|winw|xda|xda-" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "up.browser|up.link|windowssce|iemobile|mini|mmp" [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} "symbian|midp|wap|phone|pocket|mobile|pda|psp" [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !macintosh [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}          !^mobi\.
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !(^|&)m=0(&|$)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE}        !^.*mredir=0.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http://mobi.domain.co.za [R,L]

    And Viola…

    It worked 🙂

    Thanks a mil!
