This is great!
Is there a way to also make this method work on a WordPress multisite installation?
I’ve tried to do it and it does not work quite right.

thanks

In reply to Andy. Hi Andy, if these are existing pages/posts and media then you might need to update the actual post content with the new URL. You can do this with a script, or do it dynamically with filters and a bit more effort. Good luck!
