 * I had the plugin active on a single site and just recently switched over to multisite.
   Is there something special that has to be done to access the database of business
   I already have on the original site? (There’s well over 2000 so adding them manually
   is not an option.) I took a look at my database and a new table was not created
   for this plugin for my new site so I can’t just import the data that way.

 * You can export the db from the single site in phpmyadmin, then change the name
   of db in the exported file, and import it again. Or you can rename the table 
   itself.
 * The issue is probably that the prefix is incorrect. I think multisite includes
   a number in the table prefix, so if it was for example wp_wpsl_stores, then it’s
   now wp1_wpsl_stores. But you have to check this in phpmyadmin, and adjust it 
   accordingly.

 * For reference, I installed WP-Store-Locator in my multisite system, and it’s 
   working as expected.
