Issue with setting up redirect for multi-site

I am trying to set up 2 domain names with the same magento 2 installation to share the products.

the first one is athenasfantasy.com and the second is heliosfantasy.com. I got the front end to load to their respective domains, but in the backend admin section is redirection to a random page on the front end after logging in.

can anyone help or have experience in setting up 2 domains in magento?

I was going off this guide:

https://www.cloudways.com/blog/create-and-configure-multistore-magento-2/

and this one:

http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/config-guide/multi-site/ms_apache.html

this is what I was putting in the htaccess file:

enable rewrites

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
SetEnvIf Host .*athenasfatnasy.com* MAGE_RUN_CODE=heliosfantasy
SetEnvIf Host .*athenasfantasy.com* MAGE_RUN_TYPE=website

and this is what was in the index.php file:
