 The WordPress Codex says it is not possible to run WordPress on a
 different Port than Port 80 or Port 443. In times of Docker and complex
 development environment setups this is a real pain in the ass. Furthermore
 there are some common ports like 8080 which are not unusual for a
 webserver to use.

 Please lets get rid of this completely unnecessary restriction on
 WordPress network installations. The following solutions seems to describe
 which parts of the Core have to be adapted:

 https://benohead.com/wordpress-running-multisite-different-port/
 https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/212978/multisite-network-
 port-num-issues

 Maybe there are one or to more things which must be changed, in order to
 get it to work properly.
