This is the problem with Multisite setup. Check your wp-config.php file. Right under define(‘MULTISITE’, true); you should have this: define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, true); If this is set to true you will be able to add new sites as subdomains. After you do this re-check in wp-admin, what extra lines you need to add to .htaccess and wp-config … Read more
As per this issue on the WordPress trac, the problem are the rules 4 and 5. The solution is to change the url parameter and add 1, so, instead of this: <rule name=”WordPress Rule 4″ stopProcessing=”true”> <match url=”^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*)” ignoreCase=”false” /> <action type=”Rewrite” url=”{R:1}” /> </rule> <rule name=”WordPress Rule 5″ stopProcessing=”true”> <match url=”^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$” ignoreCase=”false” /> <action … Read more
You may want to look into a Multi Network. But be aware, many plugins are not coded for this type of setup. Another alternative would be instead of making each level a full site (CA – LosAngeles – Compton being 3 levels), you could set up a MultiSite to handle the highest level (states) and … Read more
The different .htaccess/mod_rewrite directives you see around are usually because of differences in the server configuration (nothing to do with WordPress) and where they are being used. There’s no such thing as a one size fits all. (For instance, the above redirect may not work if you are behind an SSL proxy.) However, as with … Read more
So the main things that have changed that need updating due to the deprecation of wp_get_sites() is to change that to get_sites(). When using get_sites(), $TheBlogs will be an array of WP_Site objects, rather than an array of arrays. This means that to get the details of the site, rather than using get_blog_details() you can … Read more
xargs is unnecessary, something similar to this will do the job without any piping or xargs: sites=$(wp site list –field=url) for site in $sites do users=$(wp user list –url=”$site” –role=subscriber) for user in $users do wp user delete $user –url=”$site” –reassign=4 end end
This seems possible to me. Most of this is related to server management and not only WordPress, so probably Server Fault also has interesting info on this. On the DNS side, you would create a wildcard to the server with WordPress, and define your other subdomains to the servers that host those (some or all … Read more
The problem is probably just that your code runs before broken links checker adds the meta box. Try changing the action line to this: if(is_admin()){ add_action(‘wp_dashboard_setup’, ‘remove_dashboard_widgets’, 1000 ); } EDIT To be a little more clear, the particular issue here is that the add_action() function is running super early compared to Broken Link Checker’s … Read more
Domain mapping works for both subdomains and subfolders (AKA subdirectories). It used to not be available for subfolder installs via the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin, but that’s no longer the case for a long time. With that being said, it’s for a self-hosted blog (WordPress.org install) and not for WordPress.com.
Well, WordPress.com is a single installation of WordPress multisite (one extremely well optimized, cached, and load balanced installation, but still just one). I just checked, and they run over 19 million blogs there, with better performance than any site I’ve ever built. Obviously, your server(s) and environments will need to grow with your site. I … Read more
