Does Multi-DB work with Mapped Domains?

Hi,

I’m looking to install Multi-DB, but am not sure if it is going to cause a problem.

I was reading the instructions posted by

http://bavatuesdays.com/wpmu-multi-db-tutorial/ and he mentioned that it broke his mapped domains.

Should I expect this to happen?

If so, how do I get a list of all my mapped domains and fix them?

Thanks,

…Mike

    Hiya,

    We really haven’t had anyone report a problem with mapped domains and Mulit-DB. Note that on the page you linked to they didn’t go into any details about the issue. It could just be a configuration issue for all we know.

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    Hey guys,

    I may have forgotten to do the table as global, and I would highly recommend you look at that when you upgrade, though i was pretty sure I was thorough and my configuration is fairly straight forward. I will be testing this again in order to double-check the details in my tutorial and let you know. But I only had roughly 10 mapped domains so it was a quick fix, I would be sure to check them immediately after the move to the multi-db. Also, Andrea is right, mapped domains definitely do work with WPMu multi-databases, they just broke in the move from a single to many—as to why, just not sure yet—but I need to find out.
