When Multisite was first rolled into core (from a project call “multi-user”, which is why you’ll sometimes see references to “mu-*”), the terminology was that you’d run a site of blogs. Now we refer to a network of sites, but because the functions had all already been named, get_current_site()
gets the current network.
You’ll need to use get_current_blog_id()
to get the current site‘s ID, or get_bloginfo()
or get_blog_details()
for more detailed data on the current site.
