    Hello everybody, I am having problems to access my Network Admin options. What I did was:

    – After installing wordpress, I followed steps to change my site URL so that instead of havin https://example.com/wordpress I would have https://example.com. This worked perfectly fine. I am able to access https://example.com while still accessing https://example.com/wordpress/wp-admin to work on setting up the site.

    – Once this was completely working, I installed WP Multisite. Again, I followed all the steps and it was successful in terms of now showing a Network Admin.

    – The problem is when I try to access the Network Admin Dashboard to creat the second site. It turns out that it redirects to https://example.com/wp-admin/network/ (which says I don′t have permissions to access) instead of redirecting to https://example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/network/ If I manually add the /wordpress/, the website works and I can click on Add a new site. But on the following page, again I have to manually add /wordpress/ and so on with every link I click on.

    I searched for possible solutions and one of them was to change “/” to “/wordpress/” in

    define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’);

    If I save that and go to the Network Admin Dashboard, it does show the URL as https://example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/network/ but the page does not load. I get error message

    “The page isn’t redirecting properly
    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.”

    It doesn′t load on Chrome either.

    Is there anything else I need to change so that the Network Admin goes where it has to? I′m very new to all this, so please be very specific on what to do as I am not familiar with all this configuration stuff.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi, what I actually ended up doing was install wordpress directly in the root folder so that I don′t have the /wordpress. I actually didn′t know I could choose where to install it until I found that option. Therefore, I didn′t have to go over the first steps and directly went ahead with the Multisite installation.
    I hope it helps ??
