 * I have multisite set up and it’s almost working… I can create new sites anyway.
   I’m using sub-folders.
 * The initial main site works and appears fine. the couple problems I’m having 
   are the new site has no theme applied and I also get a 404 when going to the 
   new site’s wp-admin.
 * I’ve searched all over and tried a few .htaccess suggestions from others with
   similar problems to no avail. Could it having something to do with the main install
   being on a sub-domain?
 * This is all a very clean fresh install.
    local.architecturalscience.com = main
   site local.architecturalscience.com/test1 = new site.
 * My current .htaccess file:
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule
   ^index\.php$ – [L]
 * # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.
   php?file=$2 [L]
 * # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$
   $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
 * RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule
   ^ – [L] RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L] RewriteRule
   ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L] RewriteRule . index.php [L] </IfModule> # END
   WordPress
 * Thanks to anyone who might have some insight.

 * Never mind!
    sometimes all there is to figuring something out is to take a little
   break and come back later.
 * Stupid solution, copy the .htaccess file INTO the subdomian folder… doh!
