 * I tried to install Multisite on a MAMP server and have had no success.
 * I added a fake url in my terminal. lets say test.com
 * this into wp-config:
 * define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
 * this in httpd:
 *     ```
       NameVirtualHost *
       <virtualHost *>
        ServerName test.com
        ServerAlias test.com *.test.com
        DocumentRoot "/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/cnb_press/"
        <directory "/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/cnb_press/">
         Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
         AllowOverride All
         Order allow,deny
         Allow from all
        </directory>
       </virtualHost>
       ```
   
 * I changed apache port to 80.
 * I am not able to access the wordpress site.
 * Any suggestions?

 * Hosts 🙂
 * Open up `/etc/hosts` and add the domain in like this:
 *     ```
       127.0.0.1       ipstenu.loc
       127.0.0.1       foo.ipstenu.loc
       127.0.0.1       bar.ipstenu.loc
       127.0.0.1       andrea.ipstenu.loc
       127.0.0.1       andrea.loc
       ```
   
 * This way I can get to ipstenu.loc, the subsites foo and bar, and the mapped domain,
   andrea.loc (hi, Andrea!)
