If you plan on creating a WordPress Multisite through MAMP
Then you need to change the Ports numbers. As you need the URL to look like this: https://localhost/MAMP/?language=English without the :8888 Apache port number.
Stop the Servers. Open Preferences in the MAMP panel. Go to Ports.
Click the “Set Web & MySQL ports to 80 & 3306”. Click OK.
Click the “Set Web & MySQL ports to 80 & 3306”. Click OK.
A warning message might come up:
“…. Each server must be assigned a unique port. Please check your configuration.”
