I have tried with codex without result. it’s been like that a person had made my site on a server (myclientdemo.com) and later transferred all the folders and files to mysite.com / temp (and he had installed wp ochså). Since I moved folders and files to and wp to www (root). and in the admin changed the url from mysite.com / temp to mysite.com. the problem is that now when I create network according to codex, as soon as I copies the code to the wp-config, mysite.com goes into myclientdemo.com! What can I do to be able to create networks that do not redirect to myclient.com?

I have been in the database and changed all myclientdemo.com to borderlessnews.com which is my site url.
