    Should have just used the Export/Import function to begin with. LOL Just a little tweeking and menu stuff and the site will be back to normal and not using any of the multisite functionality.

    This worked great….

    Thanks Andrea.

    Yes I see that…. Thanks. I ended up getting into the database stuff now, which I dont want to mess with. I’m gonna try a few more things and get off this dang computer for the evening.

    I’ll post either later or tomorrow. I’ll get this figured out.

    Thanks so much for your continued help and advice.

    My other 2 sites were created in the “Network Dashboard” using “add site. On my server, I see the files for these others sites listed under the “blogs.dir” folder which is where I see all my uploads. 2/files/2011/4/ and 2/files/2011/5/ for the first additional site added and then 3/files/2011/4/ and 3/files/2011/5/ for the second site.

    So these files are different than the files that my original WordPress install (located on the root level) and guess this is how the Multisite function separates them.

    I’m currently copying these upload files into the new WordPress install folders, as I see them in my first install location.

    Just need to know how to locate and define the location of my pages I had from the Multisite install in the new WordPress install folders.

    But I’m getting it figured out, just moving files around my server. When I login to the new install location, my dashboard only shows the 1 default page. I’m trying to get that fixed now. I have the themes and all that other stuff handled too.

    Thanks Andrea…..

    OK…. So there is more than one wp-config file. Each one residing in each sites folder after the individual install for each site.

    I know that this is confusing without seeing my server and the location of the folders and the WordPress install. Maybe I’m not explaining myself correctly or you don’t understand what I’m trying to accomplish. I think I’m just going to have to punt and just backup and reinstall my three separate sites in each site folder. Then move the site specific files back into the correct folders.

    Thanks for trying to help.

    Thanks for your help, Andrea. If there is only one config file (wp-config.php), how or where do I specify the additional database(s) of the other site(s)? Can I add that info to the lines below after ‘ang1109409384339’ in each line?

    My current WordPress install is located on the root as /wordpress and I have another WordPress install in each of the other 2 site folders (/sitename1/wordpress/ & /sitename2/wordpress) both located directly on the root level.

    // ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
    /** The name of the database for WordPress */
    define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘XXXX109409384339’);

    /** MySQL database username */
    define(‘DB_USER’, ‘XXXX109409384339’);

    /** MySQL database password */
    define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘XXXXXXXXXX’);

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘XXXX109409384339.db.7695954.hostedresource.com’);

    I do not want to use the “Multisite” network capability on the original root level installation, but rather from the individual site folder install(s) of WordPress.

    This is really difficult to explain without someone physically looking at my server setup and folder locations. It’s really not that tough.

    Sorry to be so confusing…. Thanks!

    I want to “undo” Multisite and setup different installs for each site.

    I see where wp-config (in orig install) points to the database info. I want to modify each unique wp-config to point to the correct location on the hosting server, but need to make sure I’m moving the correct files to the new WordPress install(s) in each hosted directory.

    Just need to know what would be the easiest way to do this, going from a multisite setup to an individual install. Or if there is a better suggestion you may have. I can give you access to our Godaddy hosting server if needed so you can see file/directory structure.

    I can call you to explain rather than type all this if possible?

    Thanks….
