Media Upload File URL incorrect

Does it do this on ALL subsites, or just the one?

Did the images work when the site was NOT mapped? (You did check, right?)

This happens on all subsites.

The uploading of images works perfect on the site that is not mapped.

The uploading of images works perfect on the site that is not mapped.

Do you have any subsites that are NOT mapped? I just want to be sure you mean ‘My main domain, the original one I did not and cannot map, is fine. My subdomains, like domain.com/foo/, AND my mapped domains, like otherdomain.com, all fail.’

It does matter ??

My original installation of WordPress was to domain.com

I converted the WordPress installation to Multisite using subdirectories:

domain.com/SubSite1
domain.com/SubSite2

I then mapped domain2.com to /SubSite1
and domain3.com /SubSite2

If I upload through WordPress on domain.com my thumbnails show up and path is correct for inserting into posts, pages, etc.

If I upload through WordPress on either domain2.com or domain3.com non of my thumbnails show up and the File URL produces a 404.

The only domain that does not have mapping designated is from my initial install domain.com at /

So no, you don’t have any subsites that aren’t mapped.

Can you make one just for a quick test? It’s either ALL subsites aren’t getting images, or it’s only mapped domains.

Ok, when I create a test site and don’t map the domain, picture uploading words great.

It appears that only those subsites that are mapped are having the problem.

The Domain mapping plugin that I am using is WordPress MU Domain Mapping v0.5.4.2 by Donncha O Caoimh

Do you happen to have hotlink protection in your .htaccess?

I don’t have hotlink protection enabled.

Double check that your server doesn’t have it secretly enabled? Cpanel has a setting for it, IIRC.

Are you using any caching plugins?

It is not secretly enabled. lol
I double checked with the hosting company (Blue Host).

I had a Caching plugin installed but I removed it completely a few months back when I noticed that it wasn’t helping with my load times.

If it helps I am posting my .htaccess file. I have had it two ways but neither have worked.

I don’t want to impose but if you would like access to my hosting account and WordPress installation I would be happy to provide it.

I am sure the solution is something that has either been over looked or something I am not aware of.

I am not sure if this matters but when looking at the MySQL tables almost all of my tables use a collation of utf8_general_ci

where both the wp_domain_mapping and wp_domain_mapping_logins tables use a collation of latin1_swedish_ci

Again not sure if that really matters but I am grasping at straws.

That shouldn’t matter, but … A quick check and all mine are utf8_general_ci

If you’ve got PHPMyAdmin, pop open the DB and go to the “Operations” tab. Change ” Collation:” to utf8 (which is ‘better’)

How did you ‘map’ the domains outside of WP>?

Also on domain.com/wp-admin/network/settings.php?page=dm_admin_page

What ‘Domain Options’ did you check?

Changing the collation to utf8_general_ci did not work.

In my cpanel I have the domains parked at Bluehost who is also my registrar. I have an A record setup that points to the IP address of my server with the IP address entered on the domain mapping configuration page.

I have domain options 1-4 enabled and 5 disabled.
