wp core multisite-convert

Transforms an existing single-site installation into a multisite installation.

Creates the multisite database tables, and adds the multisite constants to wp-config.php.

For those using WordPress with Apache, remember to update the .htaccess file with the appropriate multisite rewrite rules.

Review the multisite documentation for more details about how multisite works.
