In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."I have deleted everything and reinstalled WordPress, multisite, and my primary site. I get the same results except that now I can’t go to my primary site except through the dashboard. I must be doing something simple that is wrong or my host has a problem. I am using Hostmonster. Any responders please review all the previous postings before responding.

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."I have been struggling with this for several weeks. Reinstalling and starting over would be less trouble. So I will do that.

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."Yes. toppremiumproductgroup.com is parked on mhdassoc.com and I still get the same message. I cannot add another site in wordpress. Perhaps I need to reinstall wordpress and start from scratch again.

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."Clarification: MHDAssoc.com is the only site that shows up on the NetworkAdmin sites dashboard.

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."MHDAssoc.com is my main site. I am trying to add toppremiumproductgroup.com . when I look at the Network Admin screen it is the only one that shows up. When I made it an Addon domain it created a directory public_html/toppremiumproductsgroup. Mhdassoc.com does not work unless I redirect it to public_html/wordpress/. of course when I redirect toppremiumproductsgroup.com it goes to the same domain and loads the same page. I deleted the directory public_html/toppremiumproductsgroup/ and there was no change. Could the name be too long?

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."The following link explains the purpose of wildcard domain fairly well.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_DNS_recordA wildcard DNS record is a record in a DNS zone that will match requests for non-existent domain names.
But I still get the same error after adding the wildcardForum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."I see nothing on the Network Admin:MHDAssoc page that allows me to create a subdomain. in reference to “DO NOT USE A NETWORK PLUGIN” what about the statement above:
Then you install multiple domain mapping plugin, you should be able to make subdomain.mhdassoc.com look like http://www.toppremiumproductsgroup.com since you have that domain on your host.
I believe this could be done with a redirect. And I have no problem with creating a wildcard, I just don’t understand it’s purpose. Does it somehow
provide a link between the subdomains and WordPress?

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."I don’t understand “wordpress backend” in the statement “create that subdomain from your wordpress backend, not your cpanel”. I also don’t understand the need for a wildcard if I am going to have only two or three independent websites that I will administer.
And “install multiple domain mapping plugin” does not tell me the name of the plugin or what to look for. Do you have a recommendation or examples. It looks like the plugin “Networks for WordPress” is for multiple networks but looks interesting. And “WP Multi Network” has more than 4 stars but has not been tested with 3.5.1 as with other plugins. When I create the addon domain it creates what looks like a subdomain and the status of
The domain toppremiumproductsgroup.com is aliased to toppremiumproductsgroup.mhdassoc.com
Thanks for your help. I guess I am a slow learner.Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."WordPress is installed in public_html/wordpress/ which is the primary site URL, http://www.mhdassoc.com. The add-on domain is http://www.toppremiumproductsgroup.com which has a subfolder, public_html/toppremiumproductsgroup/. When I try to add the secondary site http://www.toppremiumproductsgroup.com from the network admin screen it gives me the “Invalid Site Address”.

In reply to: Another "Missing or invalid site address."I sent two .htaccess files; one from the public_html directory and one from the public_html/wordpress directory. I used an add-on domain because I wanted two completely independent URLs. The .htaccess in the wordpress directory is the same as the one you referenced except for the S2 plugin which I have deactivated and the “RewriteBase wordpress/”. How does wordpress determine where to find a valid site address? should I change the RewriteBase?
Thanks for your help!
