    Hi,
    I was trying to install Pressbooks.
    When I tried to first install a Wordpress Multisite, I ran into issues.

    Issue 1: When installed as a subdomain multisite with a subdomain, the sub of subdomain is NOT supported by SSL.
    The following image shows that this can work, but I couldn't get the Let's encrypt SSL with wildcard DNS based sub-sub-domains to work.

    66a9c96a-71e5-4ef8-8dbc-9d3380bd9e5f-image.png

    That is, site1.msite.cloudron.club won't have SSL.
    msite.cloudron.com > wildcard SSL will work
    subdomain.msite.cloudron.com > wildcard SSL doesn't work.

    Or is there something I am missing?

    I quickly pivoted to try directory based wordpress multisite and used the following command in the terminal

    /app/pkg/wp-convert-multisite --subdirectories

    as per instructions from this documentation page as follows:

    Open a Web Terminal. To use subdomains in multisite mode:

    /app/pkg/wp-convert-multisite --subdomains

    You can pass --subdirectories to install in subdirectory mode.

    However, I got the following error - Issue 2:

    /app/pkg/wp-convert-multisite: line 35: $2: unbound variable

    And no changes were made to the .htaccess file.

    I would appreciate if this can be looked into please. Thank you!

      @jagan said in Wordpress Multisite Problems:

      subdomain.msite.cloudron.com

      I can't find it at the moment, but I recall an instance where someone had a 4 level domain, and they needed more than just a single level wildcard. *.cloudron.com didn't work, they needed also an A record for msite.cloudron.com, and thus also a wildcard record for *.msite.cloudron.com.
