 For years I've been able to move my sites by just editing the index.php
 file and keeping my files and theme in the subdirectory. This works great
 when I have multiple sites/builds under the domain. As of the past few
 months, this is no longer working. WP is not recognizing the index.php
 file, but giving a parse error indicating a syntax error in the file
 (syntax error does not exist).

 Has WP changed this feature and we can no longer copy an edited index.php
 file but now have to move entire directories? If so, PLEASE change that
 back.

 Please let me know asap!
 Thanks
