In reply to: Multisite subdomains – page doesn't existMy root site was working great, but the child sites (both sites and dashboards) were not showing up. They were redirecting to a Verizon search window instead.
This was my solution:
A wildcard subdomain (*.yourdomain.com) will only work when no other subdomains are present.
I didn’t think I had any others set up since it was a fresh install, but Host Gator pre-populates a bunch of subdomains in the Advanced DNS area. These included webmail.yourdomain.com, cpanel.yourdomain.com, etc.
I took a screenshot (just in case it didn’t work) and deleted the 15 or so subdomains from the Advanced DNS area. My child sites appeared immediately, both sites and dashboards.

In reply to: Multisite subdomains – page doesn't existI am running into the same problem with broken subdomains.
Here’s what I’ve done.
– Converted my single site to multisite
– pasted the new code to .htaccess and config files
– the system defaulted me to subdomain, and that’s my preference
– added a wildcard subdomain in host gator *.mydomain.comMy main site works great.
When I add a new child site, I’m able to get through the setup screen successfully. When I try to access the new subdomain link, I’m redirected to a Verizon search screen. The same redirect occurs when I attempt to access the dashboard for the new child site.

I have scoured the message boards without luck. Any ideas?
