No idea. The permalinks page works just like it always had. Even in multisite.

Thanks alot Andrea. I see you post a lot on here very daunting to know you don’t know.
My new sites up here for the day if you want to check the links.

all I get is
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.0.63 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.63 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at reideiredale.com Port 80
No idea without any more details. 🙂
Got an .htaccess file in the root of the install? You should have, as it was one of the steps in setting up the network.
Was it working before you enabled the network?
I’m also having this problem.
Readable permalinks don’t work for me with Multisite, but the default ones (?p=123 etc) do.
I’ve checked my .htaccess file and this is how it looks:
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).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
Any ideas?
I should also add that I’m using domain mapping for subdirectory installations, if that makes a difference.
Then your htaccess file isn’t actually being read or used, so tinkering with it will result in no change..
I don’t have access to me help file with the right directive at the moment.
Well, if anybody does have the right ‘directive’, I’d very much appreciate it 🙂
Any ideas why my .htaccess isn’t being read, though?
If your .htaccess is right (which yours is), then you should tell your host ‘My .htaccess isn’t being read correctly. Can you make sure allow overrides and mod rewrite are on?’
Thanks, Ipstenu.
I’m running my own VPS, so I’m the one that has to take care of Apache! I’ve not mastered it yet, unfortunately.
Presumably I should be looking in my httpd.conf file. I’ve just had a look and the line LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so isn’t commented out.
I searched for ‘override’ and found this line, though:
#
# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
# It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
# Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#
AllowOverride None
Should this be set to ‘All’?
AllowOverride is trick. ‘All’ doesn’t always do what we think it does.
Try this:
AllowOverride FileInfo Options
Thanks, Ipstenu 🙂
I’ll give it a shot next time I’m playing with Multisite!
