Hi Ryan,

Thanks so much for the comment. Your explanation makes complete sense to me. Sorry for not explaining it better. I’m going to update my post with your comments to help others in the future.

Ok, after 3+ hour I finally go this to work. I included my htaccess file from my root folder. First of all, I didn’t even have an htaccess file (I had to create one). This was my first attempt at editing htaccess. Notice I included “RewriteEngine on”. That is what took me forever to figure out. Also, the /otherdomain is the folder on your server, not your domain name. So first line domain name, second and third line folder name. Sorry if this makes no sense but it is almost 2:00 AM. Also, I used this to help:

My ROOT .htaccess file:

#handle example.org wildcard subdomains
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?([a-z0-9-]+).yourdomain.com [NC]
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !^/wordpressmu [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /wordpressmu/$1 [L]
