To clarify, I can access network dashboard and see the subdomain site. The only problem is when I attempt to go to the subsite dashboard. It tries to load for a while, then sends to http://xdealertechs.com/mobile.xdealertechs.com/wp-admin/ and says 404, not found.
I think there is an error in your configuration. We may need to see your .htaccess file and the network configurations in wp-config.php.
For subdomains, you should be accessing the site at http://mobile.xdealertechs.com and the console at http://mobile.xdealertechs.com/wp-admin
.htaccess

I have installed the subsite wordpress install, and changed themes.
could it be the .htaccess file for the subsite?
(mobil.xdealertechs) .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ wp/$1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
or the wp-config.php?
/* Multisite */
define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true );
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');
/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');?>
Sorry for all the code, but I have figured out just enough to get myself in trouble. Thanks for any help
[Moderator Note: Please post code & markup between backticks or use the code button. Your posted code may now have been permanently damaged by the forum’s parser.]
You have this:
define('SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true);
That means your URL is NOT http://xdealertechs.com/mobile.xdealertechs.com/
That would be a subFOLDER 🙂 AKA Sudomains are false.
http://mobile.xdealertechs.com/ would be the right URL but it’s an error 500.
Is there ACTUALLY a folder ‘mobile.xdealertechs.com’ on your site?
No, what I mean is you set up WP wrong.
Do you want sitename.domain.com OR domain.com/sitename
Pick one 🙂 We can debug from there.
I sent a ticket into my host provider, they fixed it and gave me code for redirecting mobile devices to subdomain. Thanks for the help!
