I want to change my existing WordPress Multisite main site to be in a folder.
For example, this is my current main site of the network: example.com.
Other domains in the network have folders like example.com/it/ and example.com/es/
I now want the main site to have a folder as well. Like example.com/en/.
How can I do that without adding a new site or add a lot of redirects?
This is what I came up with so far but I don't like the idea of so many redirects:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/en/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /de/$1 [L,R=301]
Also I need to add an extra site for that and leave the main site "hidden" in the network.
Is there another/better way?
