Errors after site move for TNG within multisite

    Recently moved WP site from GoDaddy (GD) to Bluehost (BH). A feature working on GD is not working on BH. The site is configured as a multisite. The layout is:

    /
  Rooted in New England
  Cookbook

    The Rooted site contains a TNG next generation application.
    On GD, the folder layout was:

    public_html
  genealogy
    tng
      <tng folders>
  wp_admin
  wp_content
  wp_includes

    This is duplicated on BH now with the exception the genealogy folder has been temporarily modified to ggenealogy.

    The reason for the rename is the a conflict with the URL assigned to the Rooted in New England site. The site URL is nowellfamily.com/genealogy.
    There was no conflict on the GD site, but if the genealogy folder is named geneaology, accessing the page only results in a display of the directory names.

    When accessing the sites, the main site nowellfamily.com shows its header photo with the menu above: HOME COOKBOOK GENEALOGY …
    Clicking GENEALOGY takes you to nowellfamily.com/genealogy which has its own header photo and title and a different menu: GENEALOGY BLOG TNG …
    Clicking TNG activates the TNG app, but the header photo reverts to the main sites photo and title. It should remain as the Rooted header photo and title.

    Any suggestions on how to resolve these two issues?

    Right now I have no idea how to solve this. I hope, a senior can help you.

    When you move your site from old host to new host, I suggest using the “Duplicator” plugin.

    You’ve got it almost right…

    Quick fix would be to slap an index.html file into the genealogy directory with a meta redirect in the header to call genealogy/tng/

    If I try http://nowellfamily.com/genealogy/tng/ I see the TNG app fired up. So this file should work. You can fancy this up if you wish with more html. Just don’t clobber the meta refresh line.

    <html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL='http://nowellfamily.com/genealogy/tng/'" />
