 * So I been having issues with creating sites through wp multisite, I never had
   issues before except for setting everything up. I get an error when trying to
   access my new wordpress subdomain’s dashboard, the frontend site is working fine.
 *     ```
       Not Found
       The requested URL /404.html was not found on this server.
   
       Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
   
       Apache Server at vestrotestsite2.vestrointeractive.com Port 443
       ```
   
 * **What I have tried:**
    1. Creating subdomain through Cpanel for the directory
   public_html 2. Looking across the internet for issues exactly like mine, some
   are similar but don’t help.
 * **Notes:**
    1. I am using Bluehost as my hosting service 2. There is no directory
   at all for these subdomains in Cpanel except text files with cache codes.

 * Please check the following:
    1. Go to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks > Select
   anything but default and Save. Save again even if there is anything than default
   is selected already. 2. If the page still doesn’t work, go to file manager and
   check if there is a file called .htaccess in root. If there is no such file then
   create one with the following content:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * 3. If you still find the page broken, then ask your host if mod_rewrite is enabled
   on your server. If mod_rewrite is not enabled, then pretty permalink will not
   work.
 * If you are on nginx server, add the following in the server block:
 *     ```
       location / {
                   try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope it helps!

 * Everything you said does not work (also im not using a nginx server I believe
   its apache) though on my htaccess file there is no mod_rewrite with the IFModule,
   if I try adding it everything on my site breaks including the subdomains. I am
   literally about to give up on wordpress multisite.
