# Subdomain multisite throwing 404 error

 * [1 year, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/subdomain-multisite-throwing-404-error/)
 * I created a new subdomain using multisite successfully in my dashboard with my
   main admin “davidpaslay.com”. But when I select the subdomain dashboard in wordpress“
   3dboothvisual.davidpaslay.com/wp-admin/” I get a “404 Not Found” error page. 
   I’ve edited paths in my hosting provider, added an SSL certificate to the domain,
   adjusted the DNS A settings, double checked the .htaccess and wp-config files
   as well. Not understanding why I can’t access the dashboard.
 * Please see detailed screenshots:

 * Hi dpaslay,
 * How long ago did you change the nameservers? DNS changes can take 1-24 hours.
   Your subdomain isn’t resolving yet:
   [https://dnschecker.org/#A/3dboothvisual.davidpaslay.com](https://dnschecker.org/#A/3dboothvisual.davidpaslay.com)
 * If it’s been over 24 hours, add this to `wp-config.php`:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       define('WP_DEBUG', true);define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
       ```
   
 * Check the error log in `wp-content/debug.log`.

 * Hello,
 * I’ve reviewed your screenshots. Have you changed the Site Address (URL) of your
   subnetwork site (e.g., 3dboothvisual.davidpaslay.com)?
 * If you’ve made changes to the URL, I recommend using the Domain Mapping plugin
   to properly map your subnetwork site to the desired domain. This can help resolve
   potential issues with your site configuration.
 * Let me know if you need further assistance!

 * [@dhavalkapadane](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dhavalkapadane/) , that
   seemed to have worked I can see the default WordPress page on my URLs. The problem
   now is I’m unable to login to the dashboard, for some reason they are not recognizing
   my super admin login/pass.

 * Hello [@dpaslay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpaslay/) ,
   Thank you for
   the update. To resolve the issue with the super admin login, please check the
   list of super admin users in the main site’s user management section. Verify 
   how many super admins are available, and try logging in with another super admin
   account that has access to the subnetwork site

 * Yes, I checked the list, the subdomains are listed as supported super admin logins.
