Hello guylevans,

You can use the WordPress MU Domain Mapping for this.

Hello haileypurdy,

I tend to think you looked at an old tutorial. There is no need to create a blog.dir folder. The instructions on how to create a network can be found here.

Perhaps verify what you may have done differently.
GL with it!

Hello Akasashasha,

This can be done. You can pick any theme and add the functionality that you want using plugins. Or, while not really necessary, you can look at the plugins first, then find a theme that supports these. F.ex. some themes state to be compatible with WooCommerce. This could be an added value.

And don’t forget to add some security. I’d recommend Wordfence and the Protect module in Jetpack.

You’re welcome, mcaravaglia. I see you did not manage to solve this yet. Still I think allowing WordPress to repair your database could help. You do not need to access wp-admin for this. It can be done with CPanel’s File Manager or with an FTP-program like FileZilla.

01. Open the folder where your WordPress is installed.
02. Download “wp-config.php” to your computer.
03. Open “wp-config.php” in a text editor, f.ex. Notepad, Notepad++ (Windows) or Sublime Text (Mac)
04. Scroll down to where you see: “/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */”
05. Paste the following before that line:
define( 'WP_ALLOW_REPAIR', true );
06. Save.
07. Upload it to the folder where WordPress is installed (overwriting the old).
08. Visit http://angiecaravaglia/wp-admin/maint/repair.php

You should see a screen with the WordPress logo, 2 buttons and some explanation.

09. Click “Repair and optimise database”.
10. In wp-config.php replace the ‘true’ in define( ‘WP_ALLOW_REPAIR’, true ); with ‘false’ or delete the entire line.
11. Upload it again.

Hopefully this will solve the problem. It’s most likely a database issue, but if data is completely missing, WordPress cannot repair it.

I’d guess it’s caused by a plugin that uses rewrite rules, see ex. here.

Perhaps try to deactivate all plugins and verify if the problem persists. If not, then reactivate them one by one, visit your site each time.
Else, it may be in your theme’s functions.php… Switch theme to find out.

Still guessing, putukas… Since you say you see the comments with your first code, but not the right ones, have you tried to only replace the $withcomments = true; with $withcomments = 1;?

<?php global $withcomments; $withcomments = 1; comments_template(); ?>

Perhaps it’s the same, but I ask because the codex states: Will not work outside of single displays unless $withcomments is set to “1”.

Else maybe ask your question in the Fancybox support group.

Hello Ryan,

I’m not familiar with the issue, but if you expect this to be caused by a plugin, have you tried to deactivate your plugins? If this would solve it, then you can reactivate them to see which one causes the problem.

Else, I would suggest to look into the documentation on how to change the site URL.

If that would not help, since your site can be found at http://wulfsberg.dk too, maybe you can correct this manually in your database, in the options table. This is described in the link above as well… I probably would look there first, but certainly do take a backup before you try that.

GL with it!

Hello grummel, when you upgrade the network all blogs will use the new version, so yes, this would affect them. But I would consider this something positive. Can I ask why you would not want these to use the new version?

Either way, I personally would not sleep at night when my sites were on an old WP. It’s not secure. For all open source it is important to keep up with updates because there is open communication about everything, including bug fixes. So, old installations are walking targets.

Also, you are missing out on a lot of awesomeness. WordPress has improved a lot since 3.4 and looks better than ever. You can find out about the changes here.

If you are worried about upgrading I would suggest
– verify which plugins did not get updated lately,
– look for alternatives,
– consider how much work it might be to make the necessary changes,
– make time for it,
– take a backup of your files and database,
– verify that you can open the backup files (especially useful when the backup is in a zip or other compressed format)
– and go for it.

Of course, I say that without any clue on your setup. There is always a small chance that something goes wrong. That’s why a good backup is crucial. But I would estimate the risk of not upgrading much higher. To minimise the risk, you could take two backups using a different method f.ex. manual and using a plugin. Or you could try the to use the backup first on a different location. When successful you could upgrade the replicated site first to see how it impacts your sites.
