Learn how to convert a live WordPress single site into a directory-based Multisite using WP-CLI, with backups, rewrite rules, database checks, and testing.

Converting a fresh WordPress install to Multisite is fairly easy. Converting an existing production site is different.

The Multisite switch itself takes only one WP-CLI command. The real work is making sure the existing site still works afterward – its URLs, plugins, database tables, rewrite rules, admin area, and any new subsites you create.

This tutorial walks through converting an existing WordPress single-site installation into a directory-based Multisite on a production server.
