In reply to: 3.0 Multisite; domain mapping AND subdomains?Andrea,
I’m also using the domain-mapping plugin with 3.0.1 multisite. I’ve read otto tutorials and any other doc that I could found. There is only one thing I’m not clear.
What I learned from everywhere is to add an A record in the DNS setting of my other domains to point it to the ip address of my main site. However my domains were purchased from 1and1 and they don’t have an interface to add an A record. It their DNS setting, you can go either CNAME or DNS; under DNS, they make me to fill in up to 4 name servers. Should I just put in the name servers of my hosting company? I tried putting in my IP but it is not accepted as a valid name server. If I put in my domain, it accepts it but I suspect I should put in name servers instead.
BTW, what you have a domain registrar you can recommend?
Thanks in advance.
Arne, thanks for your work.
I’m trying out your latest 4.0b2. Is it supposed to work with multisite settings with subdomains? I plan to have some subdomains under my main site https://ITExpert4U.com. Because most of them will be demo sites, I don’t plan to register level 1 domains for all of them. The sitemap.xml for my main site is all fine. However, I try one of my subdomain, it shows an error of “Only one top level element is allowed in an XML document. ” You can see it at https://bettergps.itexpert4u.com/sitemap.xml.
To make things more complex, I also created another subdomain https://demo.itexpert4u.com, which is a separate installation of WordPress, sitting at https://ITExpert4u.com/demo. Will that cause conflict? I suppose not?
Thanks again!
