Domain with hosting and setup network website (subfolder setup). Other domain at another company, no hosting, only DNS tools and mailbox. I want to use the other domain. I set up a new website in a subdomain of my main site. DNS forwards monas.nl to monas.gangleri.nl, but I want monas.nl to work like a website of its own, so monas.nl/posttitle rather than monas.gangleri.nl/postttitle. I have tried everything, from 301 redirects to rewrite, editing httpd.conf to DNS settings, but all to no avail. As a trick to try mapping, I have turned the new website into a network and tried to use the plugin, but again, to no avail. Of course I have a network in a subdomain, does that mean mapping using the domain isn't going to work? Also, I have no idea what I have to do in the DNS settings of either host. The only thing left that I can think of is to make a new subsite on the main site and only map that one, but mapping doesn't work with a subfolder network, or does it? Besides, I would prefer both websites to be separated since I allow registation on the new site, so I set it up with a different database and a different set of WP files. Suggestions?

I try to login or access through the admin dashboard but it keeps looping back to the login screen. Has anyone overcome this problem? http://diamantemerchant.co.nz thanks.

So if you're a newbie to the network setup you might not understand what it means to 'network activate a plugin' when I went through that part of the tutorial I just activated the plugin on my main site's plugins page (since it was there) and moved on.

BUT I can still hit the site from the subdomain url as well as the new mapped url, my settings are: Remote Login X Permanent redirect (better for your blogger's pagerank) X User domain mapping page Redirect administration pages to site's original domain Disable primary domain check. Sites will not redirect to one domain name. May cause duplicate content issues. do those look okay? not sure if this is an issue with the new version of wordpress or not?
