• I created super admin with no problems and added a new site.

    I got the confirmation email and it shows up under sites as “www.mysite.com/site1”

    But when I click visit I get a broken link?

    Any clues as where I can start? I’m a newbie so keep it as simple as you can please 🙂

    Probably your .htaccess file.

    What’s in it?

    This is it:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    
    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
    
    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
    
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ - [L]
    RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]
    
    # END WordPress

    Hmm. That’s right. Do pretty permalinks work on your main site?

    Not sure I’ve only just installed WP today so not done much yet. Not even sure what pretty permalinks are or how to set them up?

    Just tried and they don’t work?!

    Tell your webhost you’re using an htaccess file and it’s not working. They have to fix it.

    Figured out the problem. It was named “htaccess” not “.htaccess”

    Thanks anyway guys!
