    Hi everyone,

    I am still battling with this. I reverted to a standalone install and then reconfigured MS and I’m not much further.

    Here is my setup:

    example.com is rewritten to blog.example.com (.htaccess in root).

    Now I have enabled MS, hoping to achieve site.blog.example.com.

    I have added the WordPress MS code to the .htaccess file in /blog/.

    I have created a new site, but both the Admin’ Console and the Site point to blog.example.com; and I can’t figure out where I am going wrong.

    I have created a Wildcard DNS entry for *.blog in my cPanel and on CloudFlare. This Wildcard entries point to example.com’s IP address.

    Here is the relevant ReWrite code in my root’s .htaccess file:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} trekairways\.za\.org
    RewriteRule (.*) http://www.facebook.com/TrekAirways$1 [R=301,L]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !\b(justride|kombination)\.(za.net|za.org|co.za|com|net)$
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(_attachments|phpinfo\.php|google584043c130e8f0a8\.html|pinterest-ba682\.html)
    RewriteRule (.*)$ http://blog.the3rdrock.com/$1 [R=301,L]

    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Thanks Mika. 🙂

    If I understand MS correct, this is the procedure required…

    Create a new Site through MS. The wildcard subdomain means that newsite.blog.example.com goes live.

    Do I then simply edit the .htaccess file in my web server’s root, to point incoming traffic to newsite.example.com to newsite.blog.example.com?
