How to set up multisite in WordPress? - wordpress

I am not familiar with how to set up multisite in WordPress in which I can create multisite in one WordPress installation. I need help, please step by step explain me how to do that?

Here is the rules of creating multi site,
rule 1:
Under the line where it says "That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. "
add the following code:
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
rule 2:Go to admin panel,Tools > Network Setup
Then read the instruction for htaccess page and wp-config.php page
Then follow the instruction
Now your website is multi site website.You can easily create any sub domain site.

Yashpal Modi,
It is long process if you are technical person than please add below code to your wp-config.php and than check your admin panel you will get the network section form where you can create multisites.
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
If you are non technical or you are facing some issue for further process.
Please check this link and follow the steps it is very simple and easy. let me know if you have any query.

If you are not deeply familiar with WordPress settings, that might be a better option to go with a pre-configured package that already includes multisite setup. This can be a cluster or standalone package.
After installation, multisite mode is automatically enabled and the websites can be created in one of the following ways within a single network:
sub-domains — a domain-based network in which on-demand sites use subdomains
sub-folders — a path-based network in which on-demand sites use paths
In the article WordPress Multisite Network with Domain Mapping and CDN, you can find out how to create several websites, bind custom domains, issue SSL certificates and integrate CDN in a few minutes using a single WordPress installation.

How to convert an existing wordpress site into directory base multisite?

I want to update one of my sites ( https://mcqacademy.com/ ) into directory base multisite. Problem is - the basic way of upgrading an existing Wordpress site to multisite is to make a sub-domain base multisite.
I want to know is there any plugins or tutorial or any pro resources that will make my site to directory base multisite so that I will not need to transfer my existing data (post, taxonomies, meta etc) manually ...
Again,
Because my installation is not new, the sites in my WordPress network must use sub-domains. But I want sub-directory base network. See the screenshot -
Thanks in Advance!
Article in Codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
"You are given the choice between subdomains and subdirectories. Except when one is restricted by existing settings and restricts one's options. "
and restrictions https://codex.wordpress.org/Before_You_Create_A_Network#WordPress_Settings_Requirements
"You cannot choose Sub-directory Install (for a path-based network) if your existing WordPress installation has been set up for more than a month, due to issues with existing permalinks. (This problem will be fixed in a future version. See Switching network types for more information.)

Installing multiple different instances of wordpress on the same website

I currently have a website up and running that is my freelancing website. What I wanted to do was create a testing subdirectory on the website.
So for example my site would be:
website.com
I want the testing site to be: website.com/test
I need this test to be private and require a password to view, as well as be a different installation of wordpress so I can manipulate it without editing my main website. Is this possible? Currently I have created a test directory from the cPanel that requires a password but it just brings me to a 404 not found page.
I would also like to create more, public, instances that I can use as a portfolio until I get more real clients. So for example I would like to have my site be: website.com/themeOne
Is any of this possible, or am I out of luck? Please let me know I would greatly appreciate any help. Anything I found found online thus far has either not been relevant or has not worked.
You can achieve this by setting up a wordpress multisite installation. I currently use this to host all my clients.
Will work like this.. Main site is website.com
Depending on how long you have had that site set up will determine whether your multisite install will be a subdirectory or a subdomain. If you have had your main site for a while it will be subdomains. ie. xyz.website.com
You will have to set up a wild card subdomain on your server though...so keep that in mind.
Here is the documentation on setting up a wordpress multisite
https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/ultimate-guide-multisite/
You can install as many WordPress instances as you like in subfolders example.com/test/ or subdomains test.example.com in one hosting account; see http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_Multiple_Blogs. (You are, of course, limited if your host does not support subdomains. And you may find lots of sites with lots of traffic will slow your whole hosting account.)
For these separate WordPress installs, you can use the same database; simply give each WordPress install a different database table prefix in wp-config.php. https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php Or, give them all the installs a totally different databases, only limited by your hosting account.
To control access to a WordPress site, there is no need for access control in .htaccess or via Cpanel; use any one of a number of plugins that allow you to restrict access to anyone not logged into WordPress. See https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?type=term&q=password
And you can still control the user's role when they are logged into the site with one of those plugins, i.e. editor, administrator, etc., from within WordPress. That's because you want to give a client a Subscriber user level so they can simply login and view the site, rather than Administrator, who can see posts, plugins, etc. See https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
There is no need for WordPress Multisite, unless you want to go that way: see https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network But be aware that MS requires more server and DNS configurations if you want to use Domain Mapping: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/

Wordpress redirect to a remote url

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.

Website with 2 separate WordPress blogs

I have a website, which runs an integrated wordpress blog, the wordpress was installed by my hosting company and it was a one click install. I then went into my FTP and took all the files from the original style and edited it to look like my website and still function. this is all well and good.
However, I would like to run another page on a separate wordpress blog (so there is basically two seperate archiving systems in place as one of the pages is a blog, and the other is articles which are produced monthly).
is there anyway to do this with the one click install, for example through the WP admin Control panel?
Thanks for your help in advance.
You can use Wordpress MU (Multisite) to accomplish this or just install another Wordpress instance.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
Are the two instances you want running on the same domain? Different domains?
In regards to the one click install from your web host, I'm not sure which web host it is or if there are any options for this on there.
Please clarify if you have any further issues. :)
Yes you can use two blogs by the two methods
Install wordpress on SubDomain like site.domain.com
Install wordpress on SubDirectories like domain.com/site
And then you can use both of your site in one another according to your needs and requirements ...
