First thing you need to do is to install WordPress. After that connect to your website using an FTP client like FileZilla. Edit the file wp-config.php, and add the following line just before That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.

/* Multisite */
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);
Save your wp-config.php file and log in to your WordPress website. Go to Tools » Network Setup. This is the place where you will configure and set up your WordPress Multisite Network.

Add a subdomain * from your cPanel, e.g *.yourdomain.com

Hope it helps.

Cheers.

You’ll need to create a subdomain with ‘*‘ as the subdomain name. For example, if your WordPress is installed at www.example.com then you need to create a subdomain *.example.com. However, this subdomain should point to the same directory where your WordPress is installed. Below is how to create a wildcard subdomain in cPanel.

Log in to your cPanel dashboard and then under the Domains section click on Subdomains. On the next screen simply enter * in the subdomain field. Make sure that the document root field is pointing to the directory where you have WordPress installed. This is the directory where wp-config.php file resides. Hit the create button to add the subdomain.

Seems to have worked for now... DO I repeat the same steps for any new sub domain?
