I'm confused, I have a miltisite wordpress installation but also another site managing the customer areas.
So I have the site on the main domain www.domaine.com and i installed the wordpress multisite in a subdomain: sites.domain.com
So far everything is fine, but when I want to create a site, wordpress requires me to be subject to the subdomain like this: other.site.domain.com
I tried to modify the .htaccess and wp-config.php but when I go back to the site management it redirects me to www.domaine.com without my being able to access the wordpress multisite management...
How can I create sites with addresses under the domain and not under the subdomain like this:
other.domain.com and not like this other.site.domain.com
Thanks
It's ok, I can't access for two reasons.
One my wildcard is set on other folder than wp installation (blank page on subsite create)
Two I need to set address of new site for replace domain.com/other to other.domain.com
And now I can access to website and subsite.
Thank!
Thank you for your answer, I just tested but it does not react correctly.
When I put the configuration of DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE on domaine.com I can no longer access the settings of the multisite network, I am redirected to the purchase site which is on the domain.
Another thing, if I therefore create a site in a subdirectory and not in a subdomain with the SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL configuration false, when I type test.domaine.com a blank page appears as if there was no site or if I Type site.domain.com/test/ it works.
I cleared the caches everywhere and tried again but nothing happened.
In case I expressed myself badly,
www.domain.com = The commercial site of the company
site.domain.com = Multisite management and sample site
other1.domain.com = Customer site created from site.domain.com
thanks again

I've got IIS hosting site(www.site2.com) and wanted to add wordpress blog site on this website, but wordpress is PHP based so I used a tricky way.
I've got PHP hosting site(www.site1.com) so set up self-hosted wordpress blog on this site then adding CNAME on site2.com domain, I believed it should work.
So, installed wordpress in PHP hosting site(cpanel hosting) and create blog site on this wordpress, the url is www.site1.com/blogb. Then created subdomain from cpanel(blogb.site1.com) which linked to www.site1.com/blogb as root folder.
When I go to blogb.site1.com, it's working so good.
One last thing what I did is adding CNAME from site2 zone manager.
blog.site2.com -> blogb.site1.com
I think this should work because blogb.site1.com is working properly.
But when I go to blog.site2.com, redirected to "/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi" page then showed "SORRY ... If you are the owner of this website, please contact your hosting provider" message.
I cleared cache from my browner and tried from other browser but didn't work.
And added rewrite rule on .htaccess file on site1.com root folder but nothing worth.
I checked site URL from wordpress settings page, the site address(URL) was "blogb.site1.com" which was correct.
I believe if destination url of CNAME is working, the CNAME should work.
But when I try to access a file in destination folder using this url, blog.site2.com/readme.html, returns 404 not found while blogb.site1.com/readme.html is working.
So, CNAME(blog.site2.com) seems be pointing wrong directory.
Is there anything I missed or did wrong?
Thank you,

We have a Wordpress multi-site installation set up where the client can create Wordpress sites on the fly. Each site automatically goes under a subdomain (sub1.example.com). Now the client has asked us to point another domain name at one of these Wordpress sites so that the site will work the same under the subdomain (sub1.example.com) and main domain (www.anotherdomain.com). So both sub1.example.com/about and www.anotherdomain.com/about will pull up the same page. Can this be done without duplicating the site? If so, how?
I have one installation of wordpress at domain1.co.uk.
I have another domain (domain2.com) and I have changed the A record so that it now points to the installation at domain1.co.uk whist keeping the domain2.com URL.
My issue is when I click any links within the wordpress site the URL changes to domain1.co.uk/pagename and does not retain the .com. I know the wordpress site address is setup to domain1.co.uk at the moment but I would like to be able to retain the domain2.com when visited from domain2.com throughout the site.
Is that possible?
Any help will be gratefully received!
You will either have to use wpmu somehow (wordpress multisite has been integrated into wordpress) or you can enable the wordpress (multisite feature)[http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network].
It is as easy as:
// wp-config.php
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
Then going to the network setup tool, adding some more lines to the config, adding some lines to the htaccess, and creating an upload directory.
I have two domain on separate hosting. On the first I can setup a.mydomain1.com. On the second I can istall wordpress as www.mydomain2.com/wordpress. Now I found a plugin for reidirect to an external website.
My goal is to show wordpress site on a.mydomain1.com. How I have to configure the record in the admin panel of first domain?
Thanks a lot
I think you should use WordPress Multisite.
WordPress includes new multisite features, meaning that it can run many blogs, even with their own separate domains, on one WordPress installation.
Our company is trying to transition to WordPress Multisite but we have several issues working against us at the moment. We host WP outside our server environment (we use Amazon for our WP sites) so we actually have to use an URL proxy to our Amazon servers. The other issue is that we needed to install Multisite in the root of the folder so the domain is http://100.10.20.30/foldername but we can't proxy that to http://www.domain.com/foldername because that is a live site that we're not moving to WP any time soon. So, of course, the problem we're running in to is that the IP is showing up not only in the source code but in Google now as well (which we don't want).
Does anyone know of anything we can do to keep the IP out of the source code/Google? I was thinking about rewrite rules in the htaccess file but didn't want to do anything until I had some better ideas.
Also, I can't use the domain mapping plugin that everyone seems to suggest for this type of issue because our sites aren't hosted in the root of our server (a prerequisite for the plugin).
So to break it down, this is what we need:
Multisite Parent Blog <-- This has to be the IP address
Multisite child blogs <-- Domain name but when we set the actual proxied domain name in the settings we get a 404 error because it's not looking in the right place. It's looking for an actual folder on our internal servers.
Thanks!
Found the solution myself. Posted below:
In the Multisite dashboard, click on "All Sites" then administer the specific site.
Under the "Path" field, you'll need to deselect the "Update siteurl and home as well."
Save changes.
Click on "Settings" tab.
Change the URL in the following fields: "SiteURL" and "Home"
Save changes.
When all is said and done, the IP is showing in the "Info" tab but it changes the URL in the source code to your domain.
