Multisite / Network #13

This isn't working with the gallery shortcode on a multisite network.

It works on the main site, but for all networked sites it adds the url before

eg: https://multi.site.com/https://www.externalsite/imageurl.jpg

It is the first time that I heard about multisite network and such a URL as http://xxx/http://yyy.jpg. May I get a real world example to investigate the issue?

Hey - I replied on Wordpress, but lets continue on here instead

Can I send you via email / private message to give you the url & login?

I didn’t explain very well – but if I upload the external media on the main network – then the external media url works perfectly:

https://www.external-url.com/img.jpg

When I try to access this media in one of the network sub blogs, the external media url becomes:

https://sub-blog.com/site2/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/https://www.external-url.com/img.jpg

I just learnt how to use the multisite feature of WordPress. However, I still don't know how to reproduce the problem.

Yes, you can reach me via my email address zzxiang21cn@hotmail.com.

You can also upload some screenshots here to help describe the problem.
