multisite
Why is my multisite installation not showing all the available sites?
This is because you’re only a member of 3 sites. As a super admin you have the ability to view the full site list via the network admin, but that doesn’t mean you’re a part of every site. The admin bar menu only lists the sites you’re a member of, not the full list, that’s … Read more
How do I use different domain for subdomains in WP Multisite?
Let’s establish the baseline: it is possible to have the main site in example-domain-x.com and all subsites subdomains in example-domain-y.com. You just add subdomain1.example-domain-y.com (or subdomain2.example-domain-y.com, subdomain3.example-domain-y.com) like you would be adding a bare or www domain in the domain mapping panel ( URL containing wp-admin/network/settings.php?page=dm_domains_admin ). To achieve the same programmatically, you could hook … Read more
WordPress Network Feature
What you describe it pretty much exactly the use-case for WordPress Multisite (formerly WPMU.) The downsides are of course that all sites are dependent on the same code and the same database so if you break one you break them all (though most of the tables are different for each site.) Of course the upside … Read more

Creating a Post form outside of the Admin
Ok I have cracked it, by spoofing the $_SERVER variable and pre-defing some constants, I was able to prevent WordPress from redirecting after the inclusion of wp-load.php. define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false); define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, $siteRow[‘domain’] ); define( ‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” ); define( ‘SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, 1 ); define( ‘BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE’, $siteRow[‘wp_blog_id’] ); $_SERVER = array( “HTTP_HOST” => $siteRow[‘domain’], “SERVER_NAME” => $siteRow[‘domain’], “REQUEST_URI” … Read more
How can I get a list of plugins and which blogs are using them?

Transients API and multisite
Default Transient API behavior is to use Options API for storage and so behavior identical to options. However if there is external object cache (declared by plugin or whatever) then they get stored using object cache functions instead. So basically it will work in scope of current site, unless there are plugins that make it … Read more
How to remove the Tools menu item from the WP-Admin menu
You want to use remove menu page. <?php add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘wpse26980_remove_tools’, 99 ); function wpse26980_remove_tools() { remove_menu_page( ‘tools.php’ ); } You can drop that in your functions.php file (without the opening <?php most likely). That’s not going to prevent people from typing in yoursite.com/wp-admin/tools.php and seeing the tools page, however.
No Network/Super admin after enabling Network
I installed WordPress 3.2.1 fresh on a new domain, and then enabled Multi-Site, which functioned as documented. I could reach /wp-admin/network without problems. Comparing the database of this WP with the problem installation, in the wp_sitemeta table, admin_email was not set for the problem site. Also, wp_sitemeta > site_admins was different. The problem website had … Read more
