Good for next client. Bit late for this one… It should SAY that on the “Give it the own directory” page because it just says “this now works in 3.5 Multisite *happydance*”
Made it work by manually editing wp-options table in DB then following the rest of the steps. 🙂
PS: I *love* that your title is “half-elf support rogue”. My old half-elf assassin would have loved you. </geek>
I should add that we installed MU in its own directory to start with, so what we are now trying to do is just change the siteurl and then copy the index.php and .htaccess files across, then edit the wp-config like you normally would. Sounds so simple, doesn’t it?
Yes, because it’s about collecting information for marketing purposes and being able to write “hi, so-and-so” or only email alerts to people from one region in a tailored way, or being able to phone subscribers if they win a competition without having to contact them again for their number…
This would be handy for me too…
