_Oli,

Just to recap

With this config (site folder added)
If I login to site_a, site_b’s url is being shown and I end up being logged into both sites.

This works for you but the refresh is troublesome for you? It is probably down to your meta refresh as you mention.

You could try a php redirect instead of the Meta Refresh in your index file for site_a. I can’t guarantee it will make a difference but worth trying

<?php
header ("Location: <a href="http://www.site_a/site/index.php">http://www.site_a/site/index.php"</a>);

exit;
?>

Hello,

Just tried this and still no luck… I think I’m going to have to take my site out of this folder….

Do you or anyone knows if I could get a htaccess that would keep the old url’s working for a little while but mark them as 301?

What I’d need to achieve is for

http://www.site_a.com/site/index.php/whatever/page/in/mysite

to rewrite to

http://www.site_a.com/index.php/whatever/page/in/mysite

And… just as I was typing this, I have answered my own question…

Here’s the htaccess 😊

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^oldFolderName/(.*)$ /$1 [R=301,NC,L]

I’ll keep posting to let you know how it all goes

Thank you for your help with this guys, you are brilliant 😊

Please do 😊 I’d really like to get to the bottom of this.

I will do, I’m still going through the site preparing for “the move” 😊

Sure. No worries, we’ll be here whenever you get to it.

Hi guys, 5 hours migrating the lot today. “Main” site now in the root, config set properly, path files too. Reinstalled MSM… nothing does it. Still not working.

When try to login, I get redirected to second site then back to first site…. I end up logged into both site which is good but this was working before… that redirect problem is still here.

My head is going to pop :gulp:

_Oli,

Can you please check your email.

Oli,

I logged in and everything works as intended. If I login through the frontend on siteA I get logged into SiteB with no refreshing of pages or redirects between sites. It also works the opposite direction. I tested in IE7 and FF3.

Try deleting your browser cache and cookies. Restart it try again.

Hey John,

Thank you for coming back to me.

Still same behavior my end… I have emailed you a little screen recording of what I see.

Thank you

_Oli, I’ll login a bit later today and test on my end.

Thank you 😊

I’ll send you the video too if you can’t replicate the problem.

Go ahead and send me the link by clicking MSG below my avatar.

done 😊

_Oli, I see the same thing you’re showing in your video, a short splash with the secondary domain’s name showing, but I’m only seeing a second one, not a third or more.

The site you have labeled as Original site isn’t available via the front end. Are you setting that one’s url to be accessed too?

yes but not right now. This is part of a future project.

I have tried adding it to my config thinking it was the problem but it isn’t…
