Wordpress Multisite error

Question

I'd like to create multiple sites on a single WordPress installation, each in a different directory. I tried to add a new website, filling in the required information:

Site Address: localhost/ flowers (in space) Site Title: Flowers Admin Email: Then I click “Add Site”. The site seems to be added successfully, but when I try to visit the website's dashboard, I get a 404 Not Found.

404 Not Found Not Found

The requested URL /flowers/wp-admin/ was not found on this server. Apache/2.4.9 (Win32) PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80

Answer 1

Wordpress Network doesn't work in different paths originally. The path that you filled is just a link for a site of the network in the same installation. You can give a subdomain for this site. Eg

sitename.domain.com

or use the path-based installation

www.domain.com/sitename

even this option use a theme ou plugin previously installed in the network and shared for all sites. You can manage users and configuration of this site in the main panel.
