In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaUPDATE: success in both setup modes
Unexplained mysteries — after being locked out of the second domain for over a day, I was able to login and make add-on blog in sub folder. First domain working nicely with blogs as subdomains.
So, now, I can get back to designing.I’m on alpha, but have read that 3 beta is due out tomorrow.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaUPDATE: Semi-success
Thanks to andrea_r and ClaytonJames for trying to get my head on right.Revisit to Hostgator support spelled out the detail “Add a subdomain name *, then point the document root to the same directory as the domain that WPMU [or WP3] is installed on. That will create the necessary entries (DNS and Apache).”
I had not pointed correctly before, and the prior attempt vanished from cpanel.
So I now have two subdomains created by WP3 on first domain.Now, I still have problem of regaining login to the other domain where I wanted to set up WP3 as folders. Restarting FireFox did not fix. I don’t think installing WP3 below the root is reason, as I had previously reached dashboard, but not the SuperAmin version.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/Beta1. I HAVE set up NETWORK in both. See SuperAdmin only in one.
2. Hostgator told me that making a subdomain with asterisk as name is how to enable wildcards. Other companies have harder methods, or do not allow (such as BlueHost, I read somewhere).
[I can ask them to verify.]3. Before I made the subdomains thru cpanel, about 36 hours had passed since I created them in 3 alpha and they NEVER appeared in my browser. So wp3 is at fault.
4. Dashboard said the syntax is now
define( ‘MULTISITE’, true );
I added your older version and got “Problem loading page. The page isn’t redirecting properly.”
http://as93.com/a93w/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http://as93.com/a93w/wp-admin/
“Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.”Backleveled wp-config.php and http://as93.com/a93w/wp-admin/ no longer works.
So, what I think you told me is negative advice.
But, thanks for attempting to help me.Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaWill anyone get me started before full release “in May”???
My WP3 setup #1 is in root, for subdomains — which I had to enable in cpanel for browser to find. Still no connection from WP3, just minimal index in browser.
My WP3 setup #2 is in a sub folder, still have not seen SuperAdmin DASHBOARD, so unable to test add-on blogs as subfolders.DASHBOARD said that one can not change choice of subdomain versus folders, which is unfortunate.
By the way, both domains do show new 2010 theme, so parts are working.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaOk, I used CP to make the ‘new’ subdomains. Now I just see the bare index’s, no tie to WP 3 alpha.
I modified a prior WP install on another domain with beta plugin, up’d to 3alpha, enabled tools>Network, but don’t see SuperAdmin.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaThey work on wildcard subdomains, you have to set those up on the server and in your DNS records.
Just had to make a subdomain named asterisk. So, if I still need to make the subdomains in Cpanel, what do I point them to? Default?
Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaOk so far. ver 3 alpha installed with choice of subdomains. Made cat.mydomain.com and dog.mydomain.com 3/16/0, still not found on internet a day later. Was I supposed to also create subdomains thru cpanel? If so, with what paths? My task is better served with subdomains than subfolders option.

In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaOOOoookaaayy. As I mistakenly posted in

“I managed to get WordPress 3.0-alpha. So where are directions for setting up multi-blogs, from root, sub folder, or whatever?”
Search and browsing did not find answer.
It seems to me that a sticky page on installing pre release versions of WP3 would be handy — until the docs are formally updated.Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: Installing WP 3.0 blogsI managed to get WordPress 3.0-alpha. So where are directions for setting up multi-blogs, from root, sub folder, or whatever?
Forum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaThanks. Got that plugin but upgrade only went to
http://wordpress.org/nightly-builds/wordpress-2.9-latest.zip
How do I make it get the alpha? (I have made a new domain for this.)Oh, I have yet to try the “bleeding edge”.
That got me
http://wordpress.org/nightly-builds/wordpress-latest.zip.
and “You are using WordPress 3.0-alpha.”
ThanksForum: Alpha/Beta/RC
In reply to: WP 3 Alpha/BetaThanks, but that only goes to 2.9. Still want 3 beta.

In reply to: style.css does not affect h2 font size in sidebaralchymyth, that worked great. Thanks! (I used 12pt.)
What might the equivalent be for Page/Post titles?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Comments form lies: “mail (will not be published)”Plausible. Except I “clear recent history” in fire fox, even leave site and return, name & email still there. Should it matter that I am using recaptcha on comment submit?

In reply to: How do I clear a form after the user submits it?Related problem. Form clears but submitter’s name & email STAY.
Makes a lie of “mail (will not be published) (required)”Forum: Themes and Templates
