Hello carpconnect,
Yes, multisite works on all modern versions of WordPress, including beta.
The easiest way that I enable WordPress is by using a Managed WordPress Host. They usually have a checkbox in the Control Panel that converts a Single Install to a MultiSite. It’s pretty cool! The same feature reverts MultiSites to Single Installs.
Hope something I said I was helpful.
Have a great day!

@mccroryj – Please don’t sign your posts (it’s against the guidelines) and please don’t put in a random advert for your web host of choice, it’s not at all on topic here.
Multisite works fine on WP 5.0 betas. But what ‘wp-settings.php’ file are you editing? You’re supposed to edit wp-config.php
Thanks for replies,
i already have muiltisite (v4) running on server, but wanted to test out V5.
wp-settings.php
/**
* Used to set up and fix common variables and include
* the WordPress procedural and class library.
*
* Allows for some configuration in wp-config.php (see default-constants.php)
// Initialize multisite if enabled.
if ( is_multisite() ) {
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-wp-site-query.php' );
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-wp-network-query.php' );
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/ms-blogs.php' );
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/ms-settings.php' );
} elseif ( ! defined( 'MULTISITE' ) ) {
define( 'MULTISITE', false );
}
So question is, does setting up multisite change in WP V5?
Do just set this to ‘true’? or do you still need to edit wp-config.php and .htaccess files?
thanks
Oh that’s not Multisite. Rather, that’s not NORMAL multisite. At all.

You never edit wp-settings.php for any of this. You just edit wp-config.
I’m using Multisite and the 5.0 beta right now and it’s just peachy, so you’ve done something uniquely weird.
Marking resolved due to no reply in 5 days, and no one else can reproduce this issue.
