    Yes, I had updated the site and home URLs. In the Network Admin Dashboard, I could see the new sites listed as well as find them in the database. But when I clicked any of the links e.g. localhost/blog/site2, I was taken to the MAMP-PRO-Logo.gif which contains the text shown in my original post. Wierd.

    Since I needed to get some WP work done, I did a clean reinstall of MAMP & WP and am working w/o multisite for now. I’m thinking that there may have been some older file or config infor laying around from a failed MAMP installation. Just a guess…

    Thank you so much Mika for responding!

    Thanks for responding Mika. I’m using subfolders.

    I don’t know if this is relevant, but before turning on multisite, I renamed the wordpress directory from ‘localhost/wordpress’ to ‘localhost/blog’. That’s the ‘route’ to my orignal site and links for the original site work, but not for any new site e.g. localhost/blog/site2.

    Had played a bit with the first one, but was unaware of the second. Now that I’ve tried them a bit, the combos seems promising. Thanks!

    Great! I will try your suggestion and yes I’m in sub-directory mode.

    Question: Theme Name: is it read by WP or just so that the developer can keep track of which child theme is being worked on?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, but what does ‘make a new child theme’ entail?

    My original child theme files are in blog/wp-content/themes/childofCoraline. Where should I place new child theme files so that WP differentiates it from the first child theme?

    Currently, there isn’t a linda folder and I’m wondering how this works.
    Thanks.

    So, converting to multisite was not the pain free operation I’d hoped for. But here’s what I did, which eventually worked for me.

    I backed out the additions to wp-config.php etc to see if I could just view my original blog, which I could.

    Then I started the procedure again, using the instructions. Did this a couple times. At some point, I got an error saying I needed to remove or empty the network db tables, the names for which I found here:

    Went through the procedure again. Still, wasn’t seeing the ‘super admin’ menu that would allow me to switch between blogs.

    Finally, I upgraded to 3.3.1 and that worked.

    Hope this helps someone!
