Title: It doesn't work!!!!! Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # It doesn't work!!!!! * [alpinevp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpinevp/) * (@alpinevp) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/) * [http://ottopress.com/files/2010/06/domainmapping5.png](http://ottopress.com/files/2010/06/domainmapping5.png) * Where is this located? * Referring to Otto’s explanation at [http://ottopress.com/2010/wordpress-3-0-multisite-domain-mapping-tutorial/](http://ottopress.com/2010/wordpress-3-0-multisite-domain-mapping-tutorial/) * I am very confused. I got through Step 3 and left only 2 and 3 checked (even though there are 5 options that I have, not 4). * Step 4: Mapping the Domain makes no sense to me whatsoever. I cannot find anywhere in the site anything that resembles the image shown above ([http://ottopress.com/files/2010/06/domainmapping5.png](http://ottopress.com/files/2010/06/domainmapping5.png)). * I want users to be able to use their own domain names, what’s more important; to make sure they are using the correct IP or a CNAME. I must be a total idiot because this part makes no sense to me. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/) Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) * [Aeryn-Lynne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aeryn-lynne/) * (@aeryn-lynne) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137429) * It took me a bit to figure out where Step 4 is now located… if you go into the admin area of the subdomain in question, you should find it under this link: subdomain.yoursite.com/wp-admin/tools.php?page=domainmapping&updated=primary * I’m still trying to make this plugin work on my site since yesterday, so can’t help with the other Qs, sorry. * [trejder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trejder/) * (@trejder) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137455) * Anyone got any idea, why my long, detalied answer to this question has been deleted by someone? I spent over a half hour explaining everything to the asker and now it is lost! 😐 * I have a copy of this, but won’t put it here again, if there is someone who don’t like it and is willing to delete my perfectly legitime answer. * Thread Starter [alpinevp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alpinevp/) * (@alpinevp) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137461) * Hey trejder, I would say the obvious answer is that Otto didn’t like you pointing out his failings and because he is on such a power trip, he took your post down. * [trejder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/trejder/) * (@trejder) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137462) * Well… I don’t know if Otto himself or someone else did delete my post. But, whoever did it, must strongly misunderstood reasons for which he got moderator or adminstrator rights. As far as I know these rights are not for deleting perfectly correct answer, just because someone got a bad day. * Any reasonable person understands that two and a half year old post must be outdated. That’s quite a long time in IT area. There was a 3.0 release candidate version of WordPress at a time, Otto wrote his guide. Now, we have 3.4.2. Of course it is much easier to delete someone’s post than to update own blog. The funny thing is, that I haven’t wrote much criticism aganist his post. Actually I was more critic to people, who follows his guide, not seeing that it is a bit outdated. * Anyway, if you still have problems with WordPress and wasn’t unable to read my reply, contact me privately via PM and I’ll send you copy of my resolution. Cheers. * Plugin Author [Ron Rennick](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wpmuguru/) * (@wpmuguru) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137474) * All of the moderators have the permissions to remove posts. Everyone who answers threads here does so as a volunteer. Having said that, I did not see your post so I don’t know why it might have been removed. * Moderator [cubecolour](https://wordpress.org/support/users/numeeja/) * (@numeeja) * [13 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-doesnt-work-5/#post-3137475) * moderators can see ghosts of deleted posts.
