 * Hey guys!
 * This is my situation:
 * I am using the **Multisite** function and **WordPress MU Domain Mapping** to 
   run 3 wordpress sites in one network.
    [http://abenteuerwald-thale.de](http://abenteuerwald-thale.de)
   [http://brockensprint.de](http://brockensprint.de) [http://ski-outdoorschule-schierke.de](http://ski-outdoorschule-schierke.de)
 * While creating new posts on the 2 “sub sites” [http://brockensprint.de](http://brockensprint.de)
   and [http://ski-outdoorschule-schierke.de](http://ski-outdoorschule-schierke.de),
   it doesn’t work on [http://abenteuerwald-thale.de](http://abenteuerwald-thale.de).
   When I create a new post, I get a 404 page not found error. This does not happen
   when I don’t publish the post – if I follow the permalink for the draft, it is
   shown.
    Flushing the permalink structure did not help.
 * As you can see here: my posts are displayed, but when I click the link, this 
   error pops up: [http://abenteuerwald-thale.de/archive/459](http://abenteuerwald-thale.de/archive/459)(
   page not found)
 * I need to find a solution so my posts on my main wordpress are found again. Unfortunately
   I can not domain map this site because it’s blog ID is 1. Could this be the issue?
 * ![](https://i0.wp.com/image.prntscr.com/image/301c6ab18fc445f2b49891824250be66.

 * Do I need to change anything here?
 * ![](https://i0.wp.com/image.prntscr.com/image/4cfd9d052b9c412e97544c0cdeb400cf.

 * What I also find suspicious is the fact that the URL is not shown as a permalink
   at all.
     (in my other sub wordpress sites the URL is shown as you can see here:
 * )
 * This 404 error only occurs on blog posts. On pages everything is displayed correctly.
 * My htaccess is as suggested by the network setup:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [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]
       ```
   
 * and the changed part of the wp-config.php
 * `define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
    define(‘MULTISITE’, true); define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’,
   false); define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘abenteuerwald-thale.de’); define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’,‘/’);
   define(‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1); define(‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1); define(‘
   SUNRISE’, ‘on’ ); define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, false);
 * What can I do to get the posts back to work?

 * I am also having same issue.
 * New posts are working in some sub-site of my WordPress multi site installation.
   But some sub-site gives 404 page not found!
