Hi Yolene 🙂
I have just gone through the entire procedure, but instead of using 2 databases I only used one because my host doesn’t allow me more than 1 DB. What I did then is I changed the prefixes of all the tables for the 2nd instance of the site. So now all tables exist with wp_tableName and wp_en_tableName. With the exact same content.
I created a subfolder /en/ at the root of my site, and copied all the files from the root, to that folder, so now all files and folders exist at the root, and within the /en/ folder.
I changed the value of the siteUrl in wp_en_options to http://www.mydomain.com/en/.
I also changed the /en/.htaccess file permissions to 644 as it was on the original file at the root, but I have no idea what that changes exactly. Should I even have included it in the copy?
When I try to browse to http://www.mydomain.com/en/ I get my site with an error message that says:
Oops this is embarrassing. You have encountered an error. Go to our front page here and find loads of interesting content…
Do you think using only 1 database could be the problem?
Thanks!
Seb 🙂
