You didn't actually go over any of the steps to create the multi-site. I did everything you did but when I log into wp-admin for the first time, I do not see that it was set up as a network.

Hey Paul! Thanks for another great video! One of the challenges I've found working with multi-sites is creating a staging multi-site. I am not sure how to do this and Cloudways doesn't offer this out-of-the-box. Can you suggest a way to work in a staging environment and be able to push changes to the live multisite? I see you can use GitHub but I'm not sure how to work with that. Maybe do a video on how to push changes from GitHub? I'm guessing that involves a local dev environment? Thank you!!!

I'd probably look at WPVivid Backup Pro. They are working on or have released a new feature that allows you to push just data changes between the live and staging sites. I'm not too sure if this works with multi-site as I haven't tested it. But that could prove to be an option.

@@WPTuts Great! Will take a look. Thank you :)

Great question. I’m not sure how to do this either

[@adied7725]

Silly question, but what is a multisite?, and what are its uses and why? Please 😊 thanks

[@bradfranklin-j66co]

Curious why you didn’t check add wildcard to let’s encrypt ssl

[@shannonaitken8039]

You didn't even show how to setup the multisite part of the multisite? You need to edit the wp-config file and the htaccess file to setup the multisite part of the multisite.

Yeah, I was like hey wait a minute! Aren't you forgetting something??

[@princedimartini]

Why is no one mentioning that they want 3 pieces of I'd from you when you try and sign up. No thanks I value my privacy.

[@theTimHernandez]

All this work with a single site, including the migration?

[@WPTuts]

Yes, you can use all the same tools to create a single site too. 👍
