Should have mentioned that this was specifically about the “Redirection” plugin. * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Changing domain for multi-site network (subdirectories)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/) * Thread Starter [ilen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ilen/) * (@ilen) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/#post-2039520) * Andrea. Edge case indeed. 🙂 * I inherited this installation — the person who installed it is no longer with the company, so I’m a bit at sea. I’ve only ever dealt with a “normal” installations before and everything usually just works. This is also my first time using the multisite feature, so a bit of a learning curve yet to climb. * I’ve seen other references to “debianized” wordpress sprinkled here and there throughout the forums, but I can’t find the README referred to anywhere on my server or the web. * At this point I will try updating the db. If that fails, I will try re-installing WP manually and using the import feature. * One last question: My company’s current site responds to “companyname.com” and“ companynamemisspelled.com” will the latter stop working once I point dns to the wordpress instance? * Thanks again! * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Changing domain for multi-site network (subdirectories)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/) * Thread Starter [ilen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ilen/) * (@ilen) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/#post-2039501) * sorry, should have been more specific. * the wp install I inherited is a little funky. it replaces the wp-config.php with a new file. * Specifically, wp-config.php instead of having the normal contents contains this: * ``` /** WordPress's Debianised default master config file Please do NOT edit and read about how the configuration works in the README.Debian **/ #http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=435289 #http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=440572 (underscores, not dashes) $debian_server = preg_replace('/:.*/', "", $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']); $debian_server = preg_replace("/[^a-zA-Z0-9.\-]/", "", $debian_server); $debian_file = '/etc/wordpress/config-'.strtolower($debian_server).'.php'; if (!file_exists($debian_file)) { header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found"); echo "$debian_file could not be found. The file is either not readable by this process or does not exist.
Please check if $debian_file exists and contains the right password/username."; exit(1); } require_once($debian_file); ``` * With the acutaly wp-config code in a file named config-mydomaingoeshere.php * Sadly, copying that file to config-mynewdomaingoeshere.php results in an “Error establishing database connection” message – presumably this is because I need to do search and replace on my db. * Is there just an easy way to have wp respond to both _myIP_ and _mynewdomain_? * Thanks for all of your help … it can be a bit challenging to understand which bits of the documentation apply to what situations. * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Changing domain for multi-site network (subdirectories)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/) * Thread Starter [ilen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ilen/) * (@ilen) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/#post-2039475) * Andrea, I mention the OS because with the debian install of wordpress I don’t have a wp-config.php, per se. * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Changing domain for multi-site network (subdirectories)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/) * Thread Starter [ilen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ilen/) * (@ilen) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/changing-domain-for-multi-site-network-subdirectories/#post-2039462) * Tim — * _On the Settings->General screen in a single site installation of WordPress, there are two fields named “WordPress address (URL)” and “Site address (URL)”._ * Those directions seem to be for a single site, have you used them successfully for multisite? Which of the four approaches documented would you recommend for debian install of a network with subdirectories? * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Media Tags] [Plugin: Media Tags] Can't change media tag slug.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-media-tags-cant-change-media-tag-slug/) * Thread Starter [ilen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ilen/) * (@ilen) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-media-tags-cant-change-media-tag-slug/#post-2028118) * Thanks for the response… I found the errant link category that was causing my troubles. * LOVE the plugin, by the way!
