I understood, the one in my current sub/wordpress

says

require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’ );

is the ‘ after the . significant, I notice yours is the other way around.

should I change it to reflect yours in the sub-dir as well?

Ftp, and no root index.php

(plugin’s are intentionally disabled, and unimportant to me too)

plugins directory is disabled too (in case that’s important)

Yes, on all counts. And the ,htaccess in the subdirectory is as you show above.

also note, that the accessing the root url says “forbidden”

absolutely. I made this site last year and the client wanted access and no admin from me, worked ok for 3 months, then no contact until today, when it’s broken.

So I replaced both files again, and where it stands, is that the links navigate and the post content is there, but many/70 of the image links are broken.

Shoudl I revert or is that part of the process.

Absolutely willing to follow your steps.

This is very different, and while I kinda enjoy the problem solving, being so far out of my comfort zone is unsettling. But hey, I was all over my database today and learned something!

So I didn’t have an .htaccess in the sub directory, so I made one, and configured the wp-config.php as above and replaced both files after making backups (see, learning)

the result, was a partly formatted page, missing images. I got nervous and put the old files back.

tempted to make the client buisiness cards with “/wordpress” on it (jk)

Thanks, I need a break too. I got it back up, partly and now have admin access. looking forward to your advice, much appreciated.

sorry, been a very very long day, I usually just draw in illustrator. ??

my htaccess looks like this

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) wordpress/$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ wordpress/$2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I removed

define(‘WP_HOME’,’https://marcusassoc.net&#8217;);
define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’https://marcusassoc.net/wordpress&#8217;);

and reinstated my plugin’s dircetory, wi=hich showed up in the network dashboard.

when I go to the url it’s just white

could my problem be here now (from wp-config.php)

/* Multisite */
define(‘MULTISITE’, true);
define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false);
define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘marcusassoc.net’);
define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/’);
define(‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1);
define(‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 2);

should the path be ‘/wordpress’ if my install is in a “wordpress” subdirectory?

i’m so frustrated, it was back up for a second, and then I removed the lines from the top of the wp-config.php in order to free up the network tab and now the entire site is blank white, no log in or anything

perhaps a plug in to do so, now that I have access to the network panel

OMG!!!!!!!!!! I’m in. I love you Dot.

so please, can you help me change my home url in Multi site? I just don’t want to screw i tup..

currently I can only access my site through

marcusassoc.net/wordpress and I’d like to change it to just marcusassoc.net.

Should I remove the hard code from the wp-config and functions.php first? (from waaaay above)

the last time I tried this I tanked the site

I was just reading that post and looking for it in the db now. is it the “{i:0” part that grants superadmin?

All I want to do is change the home url, and I’ve been at it for hours

stay tuned
