I agree with bluesplinter, is there any chance to avoid processing through php every image? That’s what is killing my site!! I have nginx (as proxy reverse) and Apache + mod_php and the only thing that’s putting my servers to its knees on heavy traffic is the images part.
Thank you!!

wow, that was embarrassing. I didn’t change the domain.com to my site. My bad.! Got in the cut and paste mode and couldn’t get out.

uh oh, I just followed these directions and tried to log into my backend and got redirected to domain.com!! It went to a 402 in the middle of the page and then to domain.com. Any thoughts?

You can select permissions on a site-by-site basis for the users. For example, a user can be an admin on one site and a subscriber on another site. You can set up the permission on the Users screen under Super Admin.

I am new to the multi site thing. When a user signs up does that go across all the sites or is each one separate, or is it an option to set?

Thanks

Is there a hook or action to disable the output that necessitates this?
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
Running every single image through php is very, very hard on a webserver.

Hi Pete, great sharing! But can i ask where do you apply this section that was mentioned “Rewrite Rules for Nginx and sub-directory installs:”?
