Please let me know when it changes. Thanks

Hi Jason,
Thanks so much for your quick reply!
I’m using the default WordPress post pagination available in the WYSIWYG editor. I added some code to the functions page to enable this button.

Is that enough information? I tried to take a screenshot but can’t include it here. Below is code from the functions file:

/* Add Next Page Button in First Row */
add_filter( 'mce_buttons', 'my_add_next_page_button', 1, 2 ); // 1st row
 
/**
 * Add Next Page/Page Break Button
 * in WordPress Visual Editor
 * 
 * @link https://shellcreeper.com/?p=889
 */
function my_add_next_page_button( $buttons, $id ){
 
    /* only add this for content editor */
    if ( 'content' != $id )
        return $buttons;
 
    /* add next page after more tag button */
    array_splice( $buttons, 13, 0, 'wp_page' );
 
    return $buttons;
}

I do also have the tiny MCE style editor installed, so I could create my own formats for the client to use.

to clarify this:

The domain mapping plugin only works if the site is installed in /. This is a limitation of how virtual servers work and is very difficult to work around.

BUT … Then I realized I was trying to get to the network admin of my current / live WP database/installation. This is the URL of the page with the error:
http://djxstation.com/wp/partisound/wp-admin/post.php?post=33&action=edit
So at present I am unable to edit my original 3 sites on the
WP multisite install, but the sites are still working.

This is the original install that’s 3 directories down, not the one I copied and put up at the root.

Hi Patrick,
I made the search/replaces that you outlined using Interconnect/it. Please ignore my previous post above (6 days ago) …that was me overthinking everything, I think! I decided to go with your outline and keep it straight.
Then I edited the wp-config.php as you said:

So these are the search and replaces to run…I think that’s all you need.

(1) search & replace “djxstation.com” to “partisound.com”
(2) search & replace “/wp/sitename/” to “/sitename/”
(3) Go to wp_blogs table and change the path from “/wp/” to “/” for Site ID 1.
(4) Edit wp-config.php
define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘partisound.com’);
define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’);

Then I installed the wordpress-mu-domain-mapping.0.5.4.3 and started to follow those instructions. I “Network Activated” the plugin, and then when I got to step 4, I tried to get in to my WP network the usual way, I got this error:

When I try to go directly to the primary domain/root site to login to WP, I get this error:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@partisound.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I was worried that I missed something in the search/replace, but I’m pretty sure I uploaded the MU domain mapper plugin to the root and not to my /wp/ install area.

Do you know what I might have done wrong? It seems I’ve messed up the old/stable/currently live install as well as not being able to work on the new one.

Thank you, and please, and I really thought I was there!

So just making sure here — all you’re doing right now is, for example, changing http://djxstation.com/wp/autodjpac/ to http://djxstation.com/autodjpac/.

Actually it is http://djxstation.com/wp/autodjpac/ to http://partisound.com/autodjpac/, because djxstation is not main domain, partisound is. But I’m trying to use the interconnect/it tool, which I believe makes changes in the new database. I’m not sure if those urls are even included in the database files, or if I change them with the interconnect/it tool. I am trying to make the necessary changes to the database tables first. Then I was going to go to the domain mapping plugin.

The only thing I know to change in the database is the connection in either .htaccess or wp-config.php file to use the new db / user / password. As for the tables … even using the tutorial I’m not sure which to change. 🙁

I would like to upload my backup WP to the new location, using a NEW database, so I don’t mess up the current multisite installation. Is it possible to copy the install to a new database, and if so, is there a tutorial or step-by-step that details which files to modify? Since I already tried and got lost in the db files I’m a little hesitant to risk messing it up again.

[Should start a new thread for this – I don’t want to keep asking for help if you think it’s a separate issue. thanks!]
