wordpress multisite > sub-sub-directory > wp-admin does not open

Question

I have a multisite system running. With one sub-folder everything works perfectly. Fronend is at domain.com/folder and backend at domain.com/folder/wp-admin

But now I need domain.com/folder/en/ and the Backend should be at domain.com/folder/en/wp-admin but it does not. I think the problem is somewhere in my htaccess.

 # BEGIN WordPress
 RewriteEngine On
 RewriteBase /
 # Rule 1
 RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
 # Rule 2: uploaded files
 RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)*files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=2ドル [L]
 # Rule 3: add a trailing slash to "/wp-admin"
 # Note: This rule issues and redirect that will subsequently match Rule 5
 RewriteRule ^(([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)*)wp-admin$ 1ドルwp-admin/ [R=301,L]
 # Rule 4: do nothing if URL is a file or directory
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
 RewriteRule ^ - [L]
 # Rule 5: strip preceeding path from wp-(content|admin|includes) paths
 RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)*(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) 2ドル [L]
 RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)*(.*\.php)$ 2ドル [L]
 RewriteRule . index.php [L]

Does someone know this problem and how to solve it?

• Mike: Did you ever get this sorted out? I'm encountering a similar dilemma and not finding any documentation to support this.

Answer 1

Try adding these lines on your .htaccess file.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain-name.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain-name.com$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !folder/
RewriteRule (.*) /folder/1ドル [L]

• kobi kobsen: This does not change anything in my case. If I enter: domain.com/site-one/wp-admin the backend of site-one opens - everything works perfectly. If I enter: domain.com/site-two/sub/wp-admin the backend of the main site ( same like domain.com/site-one/wp-admin ) opens. This is wrong. In the fronend I also have an error. domain.com/site-two/sub returns a 404.

Answer 2

Maybe i'm wrong, but actually :

• your url is http(s)://mycustomurl/
• did u try to change to http(s)://mycustomurl/en/ in Network site page configuration ?
