When you upgrade to multisite you have to enable image uploads under network settings for the “Set featured image” module to be available to the main site or subsites.

Here are the instructions for setting up a multisite (network) installation of Wordpress.

1. Install WP on the root of your domain
2. If WP was already installed, deactivate all plugins
3. Add this line to your wp-config file (at the bottom)

   define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

4. Logout and Log back in
5. go to Tools ->Network
   1. If you’re prompted for sub-directory vs sub-domain
      if your using Godaddy shared hosting choose – select sub-directory
   2. paste the 2 pieces of code it gives you into htaccess and wp-config files
6. Re-activate all Plugins
7. Logout and Log back in

Note:  Some plugins don’t work with multisite and some themes will share configurations like header images.
