[wp-forums] Multisite Assistance Needed with site/home URL Mess

[Half-Elf on Tech]

Pro tip for everyone?

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE MULTISITE URLS LIKE YOU WOULD SINGLE SITE!

Just don't. It's in teh DB in different places, and I wrote 
https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Moving_WordPress_Multisite 
for a reason :)

ALWAYS treat it like MOVING multisite.

I'll take a look but ... he may be SOL if the dev is gone and he doesn't 
have the skills to DB dance.
