multisite - How to create a Multi-Network subsite?

I've enabled Wordpress Multisite (subdomains) on www.example, and installed/enabled WP Multi-Network.

I've created a new network @ s.example.

How do I create a subsite in that network, e.g. s.example/subsite?

s.example/wp-admin/network redirects to www.example/wp-admin/network.

If I create a new site @ www.example/wp-admin/network/sites.php, I can't make it a subdomain or subdirectory of s.example.

Help appreciated.

• What have you tried? How did it fail? You should just be able to go to Sites/Add New – Nathan Powell Commented Apr 3, 2017 at 11:38
• @NathanPowell: If I create a new site @ www.example.com/wp-admin/network/sites.php, I can't make it a subdomain or subdirectory of s.example.com (a member of the s.example.com network) - there is no functionality to do this. – Steve Commented Apr 4, 2017 at 4:57
• I see. Are you able to create any subsites or see the network admin? Is this question about the plugin and NOT WordPress? – Nathan Powell Commented Apr 4, 2017 at 5:59
• I can see network admin and create subsites fine. I can't create a subsite in a network, e.g. s.example.com/subsite. – Steve Commented Apr 6, 2017 at 5:48

With the multisite install main site and network on s.example.com you can have the subiste as s.example.com/subsite

you will need to have your multisite as a sub-folder installation and not a sub-domain installation (ref the codex)

As you are using WP-Multi-Network you should be ok to go to create a new site @ s.example.com/wp-admin/network/sites.php. Otherwise if the site has already been created on the Multisite installation go to s.example.com/wp-admin/network/admin.php?page-networks edit the network for s.example.com and select from the available sites the one(s) that you want to add to the s.example.com network.
