This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

We have wordpress multisite instalation where seperate sites have own content and own subdomian domains. Default site have activated plugin and it appears to work fine. Worse situation are in other sites. When I want to setup wpml plugin on them it show me default site domain (https://xxx.ww) not domain which is specify to site (eg https://yyy.xxx.ww ) so i can not activete plugin on separete activation key. I have try reset wpml for that sites but witout success.

What should I do to have separate accounts on each sites if it is posible?

Solution:

Out of the box, achieving this with WPML is impossible.

You don't need to register WPML on each subsite in your WordPress multisite installation. Registering your main site first allows you to use the same WPML site key for all the subsites in the same multisite setup. When you activate and configure WPML on your subsites, they will be registered automatically.

Hi,

You don't need to register WPML on each subsite in your WordPress multisite installation. Registering your main site first allows you to use the same WPML site key for all the subsites in the same multisite setup. When you activate and configure WPML on your subsites, they will be registered automatically.

Activate the OTGS Installer plugin either for your whole network or just your main site.

Please check our relevant guide here.

Hi,

I'm sorry if I was unclear about this.

Out of the box, achieving this with WPML is impossible.

If possible, it will be with custom coding, which is out of the scope of our support forum. If you need further help with what you are trying to achieve, I would suggest you consider contacting one of our certified partners from this link:

Before doing so, please have a look here:

With our contractors, you might get the custom assistance you need to get on with your project.
