brody182, I meant to type MU Domain Mapping.
No problem. I just wanted to let you and others know the issue exists, at least currently. When it’s resolved, we can all enjoy a subfolder’d WP 3.5 multiSite installation with Domain Mapping using your plugin, and it will be good.
Good luck with the changes and I’ll hope for a short eta. 🙂
I appreciate the response Ron. I understand you saying that current installs will work when 3.5 is officially released, but current Multisite installs are not subfolder installs (as pre-3.5 WP Multisite didn’t support subfolder’d installs).
So, my question is, (when) will your plug-in be updated to work with 3.5 Multisite installed as a subfolder, since a subfolder’d install now is evidently getting the official “blessing” for Multisite?I replicated the 3.5RC Multisite subfolder’d install instructions a 2nd time on a separate fresh server to see what would happen, and again the infinite redirect problem started just after I installed the plugin (fresh install, different server and even domains). I hope this info. might be useful, in case you weren’t aware of the issue previously.
cheers!Ignore that last part about “A related question….”
I do need the MU Domain Parking plugin activated, and when it’s active it does cause the infinite redirect issue on the home site in particular.
Any idea on how to solve the infinite redirection problem that occurs when MU Domain Parking plugin is Activated?By the way, one of the new features of WordPress 3.5 is that the Multisite mode does work even when the WordPress code is installed in a subfolder. So, this should work!
A detail I left out in my post above is that per the standard approach, I redirect to the WPFOLDER folder by changing this line in the index.php file:
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
to this:
require(‘./WPFOLDER/wp-blog-header.php’);This is so standard I forgot to mention it, but since I’m dealing with a redirection issue it’s conceivably related?
A related question I have is whether there is any reason to leave the MU domain mapping plugin turned on after setting up the mapping, because it appears that once things are setup, the mapping works even after the plugin is deactivated. I get the “infinite redirection” issue with my home site whenever the plugin is Activated….
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Something in WP_options breaks the site.I think your (long overdue) answer is here:
http://www.dountsis.com/wordpress/setup-a-development-environment-for-your-wordpress-site.phpI realize you probably found your answer months ago. That being said, I think the answer to your question is that when installing WP in dev.mysite.com, rather than make a new WP installation, you should simply copy the WP from your mysite.com installation.
That way, the wp-config.php file will point to your existing database and tables, and WP should not create new tables.
Note: because your blog and WP URLs will be new for the dev.mysite.com site, you should run wp-admin.php in the dev site and update those URL’s wthin the General Settings form.
