Setting Up WordPress Multisite on Ubuntu 24.04 with OpenLiteSpeed (Part 3)

This is the final article under the same title, guiding you on how to enable Multisite in WordPress.

This guide primarily references insights from https://www.ucloud.cn/yun/117859.html and https://liujia.anqun.org/index.php/archives/1295/.

To get started, log in to your WordPress Dashboard. Navigate to ToolsNetwork Setup. You should see a screen similar to the one below:

Select Sub-directories and click Install to enable the Multisite feature in WordPress. Afterward, you’ll be presented with a new screen containing specific instructions.

Follow the on-screen prompts carefully:

  1. Add the first block of code to your wp-config.php file, located in the directory /usr/local/lsws/wordpress/html/, at the specified position.
  2. Replace all existing lines in your .htaccess file, also found in /usr/local/lsws/wordpress/html/, with the second block of code provided.

Once the changes are made, refresh your website and log in again.

Now, head over to My SitesNetwork AdminDashboard. If you see a screen resembling the example below, congratulations! You’ve successfully set up WordPress Multisite. You can now start adding new sites to your network.

On a side note, you might be wondering: What’s the point of WordPress Multisite?

In my case, I use it to run both my English and Chinese sites simultaneously from a single WordPress installation.
