 * Hi jazminhupp, wondering if you got anywhere with resolving this issue as I have
   exactly the same issue on one site. I don’t think it’s the version of WP that’s
   causing it, as I had an older version suddenly start manifesting the problem (
   and it makes no difference when I upgrade it).
    Am therefore thinking it’s most
   likely to be php version related issue (or some other server/hosting side mod).
   regards,

 * I found that nextgen gallery plugin was preventing this from functioning. After
   I disabled NG, the password functionality has started working again.

 * btw, re point 1 above–in the user registration email (sent to user) the login
   link is given as:
    [site]/membership-account which auto redirects (when user 
   not logged in) to: [site]membership-account/membership-levels & so same thing
   is happening as described in 1.
 * where’s the best place to change the variable: !!login_link!!

 * OK – so there’s a series of blogs on domains – where the blog is just part of
   the domain. Each domain has a main part of the site, plus an associated blog.
   The blog part of each site can be on a separate domain, i.e. blog.domain.com 
   or it can be on a subdirectory – domain/blog
 * The idea was to pull all the blogs from the various separate together, so they
   are administrable via one interface and being served from a single instance of
   WP. Am wanting the blogs to appear as if they are part of their respective domain
   name spaces – even though they are all being served from a single instance of
   WP.

 * > There’s a checkbox in the domain mapping plugin about redirecting to the original
   > blog address.
 * I’ve looked through all admin screens I can locate, but I’m not sure which checkbox
   you are meaning.
 * These are the main options in domain mapping:
    # Remote Login # Permanent redirect(
   better for your blogger’s pagerank) # User domain mapping page # Redirect administration
   pages to site’s original domain (remote login disabled if this redirect is disabled)#
   Disable primary domain check. Sites will not redirect to one domain name. May
   cause duplicate content issues.
 * I’ve tried several ways of setting up the dns on Plesk including following all
   instructions in this article:
 * > [http://davidlaing.com/2008/07/24/domain-mapping-with-wordpress-mu-plesk-apache2-ubuntu/](http://davidlaing.com/2008/07/24/domain-mapping-with-wordpress-mu-plesk-apache2-ubuntu/)
 * When I follow these instructions some other domains of mine on the server are
   also redirected to the new domain for some reason. It doesn’t work any better
   than just setting up domain parking (to blog.wp3domain.com) on the WP3 network
   domain – which doesn’t affect the other domains on the server.
 * Ron, I presume you mean that it’s not possible to alter default folder names 
   in the plugin? Just to confirm, all is set as default – and that I am utilising
   this plugin: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/)
 * To clarify, the browser is being directed to wp3install.com/blog from blog.originaldomain.
   com – except the browser is now in a very different place – url (inc. all links)
   and no longer in the name space of the blog.originaldomain.com

 * Yep, it is: WordPress 3.2.1.
    More testing, so bit more to describe.
 * 1. I only get above functionality with WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin installed.
 * 2. The redirection does actually seem to keep the url: i.e. [http://www.subdomain.mainsite.com](http://www.subdomain.mainsite.com)
   on redirection – up until any links are clicked – as all hyperlinks (and page
   url’s) are blogsite.com/subdomain_blog format – and are not relative to original
   domain.
 * Am I right in thinking that these domain mapping plugins are really designed 
   for mapping a wordpress.com subdomain (e.g. xyz.wordpress.com to a new domain
   xyzdomain.com). It’s like I’m trying to do it the other way round – i.e. I’m 
   attempting to collect blogs that are essentially on separate domains under one
   WP network – but make it appear that blogs are still all on separate domains.

 * I’ve got WPMU setup and all is working as per the following redirection (both
   with the method above, and with the publicly available domain mapping plugin 
   installed):
 * [http://www.subdomain.mainsite.com](http://www.subdomain.mainsite.com) redirecting
   to WPMU blog: blogsite.com/subdomain_blog
 * I have parked the domain: subdomain.site1.com in plesk onto blogsite.com
 * I want to keep the domain name base: [http://www.subdomain.site1.com](http://www.subdomain.site1.com)
   during the whole redirection. How can I achieve this – as at present, using either
   method – the url in the browser switches to: blogsite.com/subdomain_blog
 * Thanks.
