jeffring Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I installed wordpress mu on a sub domain and am running into some problems. from the readme file:http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/README.txt DNS 59 === 60 If you want to host blogs of the form http://blog.domain.tld/ where 61 domain.tld is the domain name of your machine then you must add a 62 wildcard record to your DNS records. 63 This usually means adding a "*" hostname record pointing at your 64 webserver in your DNS configuration tool. 65 Matt has a more detailed explanation: 66 http://ma.tt/2003/10/10/wildcard-dns-and-sub-domains/ I looked around cpanel at the redirects and such but can't figure our where I am suppose to put the "*" hostname record? I cannot add a users blog. When I test set up a sign in the activate email went to "page not found" wordpress was suppose to create test.mydomain.com Any suggestions?

Tony Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 When making a subdomain put in * for the field and it makes a wildcard record in the dns and in the web servers configuration file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffring Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Thanks Tony. I got it. I went to "SubDomain Creation" Put "*" and my domain (and the trick) pointed it to "public_html/mysubdomainsfolder" Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
