    Hi there.

    I’m sorry for asking what is probably a silly question, but I’m a novice in this area… a very FRIGHTENED novice, right now… so I hope someone can help.

    I have WPMU set up on one of my sub-domains, which is the one I want to use as my network “host”. I have four other sub-domains that I wish to have in the network, but as they are established websites, I want them to retain their URLs. Obviously, this is why I’m trying to get the Domain Mapping working.

    I’m trying to work through the instructions in the “install”, with the assistance of Lerner Consulting’s tutorial (thank you, BTW). Here’s my first (very early) stumbling block:

    I’m receiving this message “Please uncomment the line define( ‘SUNRISE’, ‘on’ );” in my Settings>Domain Mapping page. I’ve checked my wp-config.php file and there is no #in from of the line. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do here. Can anyone help?

    Resolved. Thanks 🙂

    Glad my tutorial was helpful for you getting WordPress working in Multi-Site mode.

    WordPress Multi-Site (even with the Domain Mapping plugin) won’t do *anything* with your separate WordPress installations. It will work great for you creating New sites.

    Your other established websites can be brought into your multi-site installation. The “normal” import only brings the text (posts, pages, comments), which is enough for many sites, but doesn’t bring over any widget settings, page settings, etc. and obviously you will have to reinstall plugins and themes. I don’t remember about custom post types getting or not getting imported. I’ve done full “everything just as before” imports, it’s not easy; you would probably want to simply check each page and manually redo any widget or page settings.
