Referring to Settings API in Multisite - Missing update message
It states that:
For network option pages the correct form action URL is:
wp-admin/network/edit.php?action=your_option_name
Note: without a '/' in front
Okay. Let's try it:
<form method="post" action="wp-admin/network/edit.php?action=your_option_page">
Obviously, my options form actually gets submitted to:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/network/wp-admin/network/edit.php?action=your_option_page
Now, adding a '/' in front:
<form method="post" action="/wp-admin/network/edit.php?action=your_option_page">
Submits the form (correctly) to:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/network/edit.php?action=your_option_page
That's right in most cases, I think?
However, I got feedback from some of the users of my plugin, that they get this when submitting the options form:
Not Found The requested URL /wp-admin/network/edit.php was not found on this server.
Is this due to incorrect server configuration for that user, or should I actually stick to the following form action URL to make it work with different server paths:
<form method="post" action="edit.php?action=your_option_page">
Form still submits to correct URL:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/network/edit.php?page=your_option_page
Would the latter form action URL work in all install paths that wordpress supports? (with subdomains, directory paths, etc.). How about the different web servers: Apache, Nginx, IIS
yourdomain.com yourdomain.com/wordpress/ subdomain.yourdomain.com subdomain/yourdomain.com/wordpress/
