Aplications / Moving an existing WordPress Multisite to existing CWP7
« on: September 10, 2018, 10:50:27 PM »
I have a CWP7 server where I migrated 4 WordPress websites from an old physical server. Everything works perfectly, no problems there. Migration was straightforward, I copied the MySQL DB and the public_html files from source to destination then adjusted settings in wp-config.php.
Now, the 5th WP website happens to be a WordPress Multisite with 4 live sites in it. Because we share media files and themes in the legacy multisite, we'd like to move it "as is" into a new User in CWP to preserve the file structure. Has anyone done this or is there a guide somewhere?
Based on my limited experience on the platform, I think the steps would be as follows:
Does that make sense or am I missing something? I'm wondering if I'll have to manually modify Apache settings to point to each site in the multisite or CWP7 automates this task.

Based on my limited experience on the platform, I think the steps would be as follows:
- Migrate the MySQL DB.
- Create a User in CWP7 and set it up with one of the domains in the WP multisite.
- Create domains for each additional site in the WP multisite.
- Copy the WP multisite folder from source.
- Fix user permissions.
