  Hi there,

  I’m trying to run 2 different blogs from one hosting service with 2 different domains. After researching and playing, I see we are able to manage multiple sites from 1 WP install (sweet!). I set up the multi-site changes in the wp-config, followed some how-tos, installed the domain mapping plugin, played with that – but now I’m stuck.

  My main blag site sits in the root web folder (where the WP install sits too). I have created a sub folder within this root web folder, where my 2nd domain resolves to (2nd domain = http://www.lizandiantietheknot.com). Currently, that domain correctly resolves to this sub folder, which is what I want. So far, so good.

  But after playing with the multisites in WP and the domain mapping plug in, something isn’t hooked up just right. Check out what I mean:
  My WP subdomin (http://lizandiantietheknot.smokeymaverick.com/) resolves correctly to the right sub folder.
  My 2nd domain (http://www.lizandiantietheknot.com) resolves correctly to the right sub folder.
  But when I try to go to the dashboard for the subdomain of http://lizandiantietheknot.smokeymaverick.com/wp-login.php it doesn’t work…. somethings up.

  Further more, when I view “My Sites” in the WP dashboard, I can clearly see the 3 sites I’ve set up:
  http://www.lizandiantietheknot.com/MySitesSaysThreeSitesExist.gif

  When I view my main WP dashboard however, it only reports that I only have 1 site:
  http://www.lizandiantietheknot.com/DashboardSaysOnly1SiteExists.gif

  So obviously the piping is broken somewhere – can anyone help point me in the right files/area to look for the broken pipe so I can hook it all up?

  Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

  – Ian
