Setting up a temporary URL on a WordPress multisite installation.

I have followed the article Installing WordPress using your Temporary URL https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/installing-wordpress-using-your-temporary-url/, however it is not working for my multisite installation. When visiting the temporary URL, I still get directed to the initial domain name it was set up on. I also tried changing: define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', '***'); to define('DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'ecbiz193.inmotionhosting.com/~***/***'); but doing that creates a redirect loop. Also note, this is set up on an add-on domain. What else do I need to change in order to use the temporary URL?

Hello, Thank you for your question regarding WordPress. I would suggest using a host file modification instead of the temporary url when it comes to multisite situation. You would put a new entry for each multisite you are making. Best Regards, TJ Edens
