I have recently upgraded and installed the new version of WP multisite and then successfully added the domain mapping plugin from this site. I wanted to import my saved setting from an XML file into this new site. I was trying to download the wordpress importer from the plugin menu however after doing so I get the following message: "Download failed. Could not create Temporary file.” I assume this has to do with the level of access in my .htacess file. Below is the file I am currently using.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^[_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Here is what I would like to know:
1. Is there a problem with my .htaccess file? If so, what change(s) should I make to make it work properly?
2. Is this the correct or best plug-in to import a wordpress site?
3. I would also like NOT to add 777 access to my files, so what is the correct code to insert to protect the .htaccess file from hackers, etc?
I appreciate your time and insight. I am kind of a noobie :slight_smile: and love this stuff. I feel like I’m 8 years old again, I absorb everything so fast and want more!! Please help feed my knowledge!!!
