 * Just an added note: I’m very doubtful the issue has anything to do with the “
   page links to” plugin, as the same issue happens if, when looking at a post, 
   you click on the category name “front page”. It takes you to the exact same URL
   with the exact same results.

   sub-site. Trying out a random image thing found here:

 * well, I almost got it to work, but no dice. Looks like I’m going to have to find
   6 more different plugins that do the same thing just to do something that should
   be simple…

 * Still haven’t found a solution…
 * Is there an easy way to modify flashfader to be recognized under a different 
   name, with its own folder? So, for example, I copy the folder and modify the 
   files so that WordPress recognizes the plugin as “flashfaderschool1” and “flashfaderschool2”
   and activate and modify them accordingly?
 * Or, is there another slideshow plugin that’s smart enough to distinguish between
   subsites?
 * Or, could someone point me toward information about modifying the theme to have
   something similar built in?
 * I’ve been doing searches here & there on the above and haven’t stumbled upon 
   the answer myself, so any help is appreciated!

 * AH HA! Nevermind – somehow the .htaccess file had gotten renamed .htacces (missing
   an s).
 * All better! (After a few days of trying different things here & there…)

 * ignore the [code][/code] tags, they are not in the .htaccess file, I’m used to
   different forum software…

 * I tried rebuilding permalinks earlier with no change (switched to a different
   style, checked, switched back again, checked).
 * The district site is on the main domain, the 6 school sites are on subdomains.
 * ipstenu – contents of the .htaccess file are below:

 * # uploaded files

   |admin|includes).*) $2 [L] RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L] RewriteRule.
   index.php [L]

 * I should add – at one point we had only the district site set up, before we figured
   out multisite setup. During that time, pages and posts in the district site worked.

 * Thanks, looks like I have some reading to do (as well as developing some php 
   skills). I’ll post back if I get stumped, thanks again!

 * Honestly, I’m not sure how the guy setting up the server & wordpress software
   is planning on doing the sub-sites, as he hasn’t set them up yet. I had originally
   been working with wordpress mu, but the school’s tech guy is handling everything
   on the server setup & wordpress installation level, and that doesn’t seem to 
   be the version of wordpress he’s installed.
