 * Hello Ipstenu!
 * I did what you recommended. And this is what I got:
 * 302: Temporary redirect to [http://romae.org/ricard-latin-2/wp-admin/](http://romae.org/ricard-latin-2/wp-admin/)
 * That is one of the example sites. The theme is broken, too but when I go into
   the dashboard, I just get that redirect error. I have now upgraded to WP 4.3 
   by the way.

 * Looks like “too many redirects”. I tried with Safari and got “Safari can’t open
   the page”.
 * I had updated to the new version of WP and hadn’t updated my plugins or themes
   yet (a practice I usually avoid as I tend to update plugins and themes before
   the WP software). That resulted in the white screen of death.
 * I then called up GoDaddy support to see if they could resolve the issue (look,
   I was lazy!). They told me to go back into my database and update every default
   theme setting (under the wp_options field) with “twentyfourteen”. That seemed
   to fix my main site as I was able to access the frontend and backend again, and
   the network admin dashboard, too.
 * Whenever I try to access the dashboard for one of the sites in my network, I 
   get the error messages above. I also cannot edit any of the posts on those sites
   in the network because it says the page doesn’t exist.
 * Any ideas?

 * When you say “connection error” does that mean that when you try to access the
   admin dashboard for one of your multisite sites, you are getting nothing?
 * Whenever I try to go to a /wp-admin portion of one of my multisite sites, I am
   getting from Firefox:
 * > The page isn’t redirecting properly
   > Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address
   > in a way that will never complete.

 * Same problem for me. Was going to recommend this plugin but it doesn’t work. 
   Looks like support is limited, too.
 * I know the previous version worked. Will report back.

   install. A bulk action would be perfect and all that is needed.

 * I purchased a hosting account – brand new – with Godaddy. Did a fresh install
   of WP 3.2.1. Logged in as admin, check. Deactivated all plugins, check.
 * Upgraded to multisite. Added the first bit of code to the config file:
 * `define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);`
 * Accessed the Tools > Network. Hit Install and it set me up with subdirectories(
   can’t do subdomains with Godaddy).
 * Then added the blogs.dir to the wp-content folder.
 * Then added the next bit of code to the config file:
 *     ```
       define( 'MULTISITE', true );
       define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
       $base = '/';
       define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'afirekindled.com' );
       define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
       define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
       define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
       ```
   
 * Then added mods to .htaccess:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   
       # uploaded files
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
   
       # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
       RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
   
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
       RewriteRule ^ - [L]
       RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
       RewriteRule  ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
       RewriteRule . index.php [L]
       ```
   
 * FTP’s both files into the root directory.
 * Go to log in as admin – and STILL get redirected to login screen!
 * WTF?
 * So, I learned it wasn’t a problem installing MS in a subdirectory and then redirecting
   the domain to that section of the host. It doesn’t matter whether or not you 
   get a fresh host or not – you still get the same error.
 * The question is, what is causing this error? I’ve installed MS before many times
   and have never had this problem. There is something I am overlooking…

 * Thanks Ipstenu for your help, I do appreciate it. It’s frustrating because I 
   have done it before and not sure why I can’t do it now. I am about to give up
   and probably just going to have to get a new host for this.
 * Yes, I did do both the .htaccess and wp-config mods. In fact, I thought I had
   found the problem in the config file, but the change I made (to the domain current
   url) didn’t work.
 * Nothing revealing in Godaddy’s FAQ’s either. I think they just set it up in such
   a way so that you have to pay for a new host.

 * I’ve done it before, using Godaddy as my host. But I am trying to remember how
   I did it. Wasn’t anything extravagant. I think this is what I did:
 * I did a fresh install using Godaddy’s installation.
 * I then redirected my domain to the subdirectory that I placed the fresh install
   on.
 * Next, I then changed the WordPress URL and the Site URL under Settings > General
   to the domain I want it to be redirected to. All of this worked.
 * Then, I did the multisite upgrade. When I tried to login as the admin, I just
   keep being redirected to the log in screen.
 * I got this to work for other multisites but can’t get it to work with this one.
   Like I said, nothing amazing.

 * Yes, there is virtually NO SUPPORT for this sort of thing. I too have the same
   problem and no one can muster up any kind of an answer. I have been combing through
   the forum here and any thing else that will pop up on the internet.
 * I have tried to install this multisite several times from a clean install. I 
   am having the exact same problem as smackz. I also started another thread on 
   this to see if I could net an answer. I think this is a huge bug that has to 
   be worked out someway. Can’t find a resolution myself.

 * Here is the link I am redirected to:
 * “domain.com”/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fafirekindled.com%2Fwp-admin%
   2F&reauth=1
 * Any ideas?
 * I installed a fresh version of WordPress 3.2.1. I then redirected the domain 
   to the the current subdomain folder. When I type in the new .com it goes to this
   new install of WordPress.
 * Then, once I upgrade to multisite, I can’t log in with my admin account. I just
   get redirected (see the link above).
