Yes, I’m sorry the two get a bit conflated here, but I did not want to flood with new topics. So, breaking down the two issues here, which are potentially related:
“Out of the box” using the install that I describe above, neither Gutenberg, nor the customizer work.
Gutenberg:
A temporary bandaid fix for Gutenberg is adding a 301 redirect for :
/wp/wp-admin/post.php* to /wp-admin/post.php*
/wp/wp-admin/post-new.php* to /wp-admin/post-new.php*
Customizer:
I tried the same style fix for customizer, i.e. adding a redirect for the Customizer
/wp/wp-admin/customize.php?return=%2Fwp%2Fwp-admin%2Fedit.php to /wp-admin/customize.php?return=%2Fwp%2Fwp-admin%2Fedit.php
or I can easily give you access to everything, feel free to message me on slack and then whatever the solution is that we get to I will summarize for the rest of the community.
any thoughts here? I may have to abandon MU for client sites if this is an issue. This would really neatly allow me to host multiple client sites on the same server.
For me the issues had to do with the nonce cookie not being able to verify since the sub-site domain was different than the cookie domain. I was having difficulty with Gutenberg and a multisite using custom domains for sub-sites. So I don’t know if this will work for your issue.
Have you tried mapping TLDs and not subdomains? If not- can you? I can supply the domain if you need one.
Something isn’t adding up… likely something I’m doing. Would you want to walk through the whole process with trellis and bedrock with me to see where I’m possibly doing something wrong.
one other thing to note is that wp_blogs has mydomain.com (the same domain set to COOKIE_DOMAIN above) and wp_3_options has siteurl = mydomain.com and home = mydomain.com/wp (i even tried changing home to = mydomain.com (without /wp) and still didnt work
