In WordPress Multisite there are some scenarios where a site with a custom domain can get lost. There is the central place in network admin where you can assign custom domains but you can also do it at the site level. If it’s done at the site level, it’s possible for that site to become […]

List Posts/Pages in WordPress Multisite Admin Sites View

This is a little something that’ll help you see activity across a multisite. It adds a column to the admin view that shows the posts/pages count for each site. I found this plugin that got me the foundation for adding the column and then was able to just use the switch_blog function to get me […]

We needed to put a data privacy footer link on all our rampages sites. To do that I added this code in our generic network activated plugin. Then we realized we’d need to skip that occasionally for particular sites and that’s why we ended up adding a loop to skip sites by ID. It could […]
So Many Sites – Cleaning Up Users

There are lots of ways users can end up associated with many sites in a WordPress multisite install. That’s no big deal if it’s only five or ten but sometimes it’s way more. It’s not just messy, it actually degrades performance when you’re logged in because the admin menu bar loads all those sites. This […]
