Try moving all or most of your media files and static pages to a CDN such as Amazon S3 free or any of your choice. Then, instead of uploading the files to the library and loading them from your server, just provide the direct public link (URL) to the corresponding file on your CDN server. If you use S3.amazon.com, make sure to make the file and/or bucket public before using the links to each file. I was having the same problem. I also uninstalled w3total cache and installed Autoptimize and WP Super cache. I’ve seen quite and improvement.

Hope this helps your case. ??

Have your tried deactivating all your installed plugins and refreshing the page? If you cannot access admin, you can deactivate all the plugins by renaming the plugins folder to anything you want via FTP. Then,clear cache,refresh and try again.

It’s been my experience that most 500 errors are caused by a bad plugin. If it does not go away after you do the above, then it might actually be a problem with your server and your hosting provider will need to look into it. I have encountered the same errors various times and, so far, it has always been a bad plugin causing the problem. Then, you have to activate them one by one until you reach the one that causes the problem. If you can, just click on the browser’s arrow to go back to the plugin page, deactivate (you might get the 500 error because of the cache, ignore it) and refresh. Then, just delete that bad plugin or leave it deactivated in case an update become available that fixes it.

Hope this helps. ??

Hi gg4775,

I was having the same problem as you are. And, doing the wildcard stuff on the DNS can create more problems than necessary if you are using different domains for each of your multisites. I have 7 domains! So, I left the wildcard suggestion alone and omitted it.

Here is how I fixed it. I did it from the server side first. I added to my main account the domains I want to use with my multisites WP installation.

Then, I pointed those domains in stealth mode to the multisites directories. Therefore, when someone types one of the domains on the browser, they are immediately directed to the corresponding site and the URL reads the top domain address NOT the multisite given address.

Of course, make sure that your .htaccess has the right WP info for subdomains. OR, you can always create a separate .htaccess for each site.

Also, when you get 500 errors, it is usually a plugin causing the problem. Deactivate the plugin mentioned in server’s error log. Refresh your site or admin panel from the browser. You might need to clear cache and cookies if the problem 500 shows up again. After you clear your cache and cookies, try again. Now, you should not get your 500 or 404 error. Always read YOUR SERVER’s ERROR LOG when you encounter errors because it usually gives you exactly what is causing the problems (usually a plug-in).

I hope this helps you.:)

Here is an idea:

Have you tried exporting only the section of your database that has to do with the site that you want to move from your multisite section to another? For instance, click on wp-6 (corresponding to your site #6 in multisites db) and export all the tables from wp-6 only. Then, with a text editor, change the top section to the new database parameters and the wp-6 reference within the Insert text to your new table name for that site. Afterwards, access your new database in the server and either copy and paste or use the import feature. If any errors show up, just correct whatever MySQL says it’s wrong. Most errors usually have to do with ID and Keys. You can do a search on your text before importing and change the values to those you have assigned to the new database.

There is a non-plugin program that you can install on your root that is specially good for database changes in WP. It’s called “searchreplacedb21”. You should be able to find and downoad it from the plugin section on this site. You can use it to make changes after you create the new database for the site you want to move. Insert your import to the new database. Ignore the errors. Go to your browser address box and call the searchreplace program. Input the name of your new database and the info you need to change. It will do a complete search and replace. Afterwards, just delete the searchreplace file from your server for security reasons.

I hope these suggestions help somehow.

Cheers. ??

Thank you! ??

Hi Hopehornby,

I came across your post also looking for answers to a similar question. However, I think that you have been led in the wrong direction. It seems to me that what the error message is telling you is that the function GET in the post.php page under wp-admin is not supported by either your version of WP or the plug in version was written for an earlier version than yours. Therefore, you need to take a look at the code within post.php or go through the tedious task of deactivating every plug in that you might have installed right before this error happened (or all of them, if you don’t remember which one and then activate them one by one until you find the culprit)

Method Not Implemented

GET to /wp-admin/post.php not supported.

Although it is unlikely that the error is being generated by your .htaccess file, you might need to find it under your hosting server CPanel. Some of them have direct link to the htaccess where you can view and edit the file. Another way is to use your CPanel file manager to look at the root of your site (account). It should be there. If you have created (or a plug in has) a separate htaccess under your WP directory, then you should also be able to see it under that directory via your online File Manager. There are some plug ins that do get into some code they should not (like the Nova QR) and they are so well “hidden” you have to do some “coding tricks” to get them off your pages. Others, modify your wp-config and htaccess and you can get locked out. I’ve had both experiences. Fortunately, I know a bit of coding and my son is a Sr. Software Engineer and Web developer. He helps me out and educates me when possible so I can fix my own messes. ??

Anyway, I hope this helps you a bit. The people at this forum are pretty eager to help out so if this one doesn’t help you, someone else’s will, especially a developer.

Good luck
